Being fair, I think people that enabled people like Wu worst behavior also helped the perception that being Trans was a bizarre form of social status upgrade. I remember how much Gaf defended a lot of the her BS during the Gamergate years and Patrick Klepek pretending that her game had some merit outside getting connections to the SF Indie circle.
Also remember how insane that thread at Gaf with Chloe Sagal (?) scamming people for money for her transition and how they attacked the journo for trying to warn people after everything else failed? There was a sincerity in both Wu and Sagal, but they also benefited from the growing nastiness of the movement before getting kicked out of it.
