When China's prodigious tech influencer, Naomi Wu, found herself silenced, it wasn't just the machinery of a surveillance state at play. Instead, it was...

After the last post publicly by Naomi Wu being

“Ok for those of you that haven’t figured it out I got my wings clipped and they weren’t gentle about it- so there’s not going to be much posting on social media anymore and only on very specific subjects. I can leave but Kaidi can’t so we’re just going to follow the new rules and that’s that. Nothing personal if I don’t like and reply like I used to. I’ll be focusing on the store and the occasional video. Thanks for understanding, it was fun while it lasted”

Naomi Wu mentions briefly on her silencing and how she is not nearly as safe as she was before now that it’s obvious to the Chinese government her disappearance won’t cause an uproar of bad press making China look bad.

    That said, incels REALLY hate Naomi for whatever reason.

    I think you’re way out of line with the insults and broad accusations. I am bare new to the 3D printing community and I never heard of Naomi Wu before. The article only mentions she is an influencer, and this discussion makes little to no efforts to add context to why is a particular influencer relevant to 3D printing.

    Calls to clarification are faced with comments like yours, accusing those of asking a simple question of being incels.

    This behavior reflects poorly upon you in particular and the 3D printing community in general. Please pay attention to what you say and do.

      Let me give you a quick life lesson. Think of it as 3d printing a better personality

      The response to the above is not “How dare you insult me. I have never been insulted before in my life and I will not stand for it now!”

      It is either understanding that you are not an incel and it is not referring to you. Or, if you aren’t that confident, you say “oh shit. just to make it clear, I am not an incel. I just genuinely had no idea who she was but still felt the need to go out of my way to enforce gatekeeping on this random message board”

      The former makes you look like a deranged lunatic and… makes me increasingly sure that you felt attacked for a reason. The latter is how a normal human being acknowledges they accidentally did something shitty, from ignorance, but have learned from it.

      [edit] Wow. Apparently you aren’t even the person who was wondering why this was relevant. So… wow [/edit]

        I can call people names and if it’s not true then they shouldn’t be offended!

        Seriously?

        Let me give you a quick life lesson.

        You’ve typed too many words to try to rationalize your toxic behavior.

        I repeat: pay attention to what you say and do. All communities have their bad apples, but this does not grant the likes of you the right to spoil the whole barrel.
