Granted it was during a bleak period of my life when I was so reactionary. But my god, to think these goobers are still around today, still doing racism and sexism, just moving from target to target to take out the impotent rage on.

Just reminded of it today with the “discourse” of Yasuke being in Ass Creed and G*mers changing any woman not white and waifish with AI.

    For real? I don’t think I’ve noticed that so far, though it wouldn’t surprise me. Dan’s been styling on chuds for a long time. I suspect his reading of fight club as a feminist critique of toxic masculinity left a core trauma for some of these bozos

      during gamergate he wrote a piece on how there were literal CP boards on 8kun and the mods did nothing, and that pissed off chuds. so first they said his article itself constitutes spreading CP, his downloading of the images makes him a pedo, and then just straight up accused him of being the person that uploaded the CP in the first place to get 8kun shut down.

      they’re still really butt hurt about it. and let me just say i wish dan succeeded because 8kun was the breeding ground for Qanon.
