The President of the United States echoing 4chan posts from 2012.
The world is fucked.
Elon Musk and Bill Ackman might become the next Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu if they’re not careful
53.
They're literally the worst person in any room.
They feel so incredibly inadequate all the time, and improving themselves is such an insurmountably huge task, that they instead say "No, THEY are the reason I'm sad actually"
So we must bully and send death threats to every member of every underrepresented community.
Obviously. Now who's with me
It’s effectively a cargo cult all things considered
Kinda tells you who they were right there.
There was a much louder group that was heavily about misogyny and racism.
When I realized how many and how bad, I left. I know there were others too.
I regret ever being part of it.
Plenty others decided "eh, fuck it" and doubled down, becoming (or maybe admitting that they were all along) raging bigoted assholes.
In fairness, she's been put through hell—and not knowing me from Adam, couldn't necessarily tell that I wasn't up to some complicated trolling effort.
Gamergate: I sleep.

It was a jealous ex-boyfriend twisting the facts to send a hate mob after his ex to punish her for leaving him, which also tapped into the virulently misogynistic channer/manosphere zeitgeist.
Death threats online are their sole way to telegraph power, and decrying them affirms that they got to you. Reply to them with the pig poop balls pic!
- Elon, probably
The comments on "Tchia" alone make my blood BOIL and Steam does NOTHING to remove the hate speech. They don't even have a proper block feature. 🤬
That it’s not enough to be politically conservative and socially liberal, but that you have to be openly far right across all aspects without any liberal veneer.
All you need to to know about GG is here:

Why does he have time to tweet about video games? Because someone else he believes to be brilliant is off destroying the republic.
From within or without or both it doesn't matter--
I try to remember "Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence" but sometimes it stretches credulity.
Could someone explain?
Every time I try to educate myself and read about the incidents online I come out the other end genuinely confused.
I'm also, admittedly, kinda dumb.
Nazis took advantage and co-opted them.
they can't stand the idea of anyone outside that narrow definition of "human" being treated as anything but vermin or chattel
If Elon actually played games, he'd immediately recognize that.
