He and a lot of dudes on that forum were the older creeps that hang out with teenagers then get pissed off when those teenagers grow up and suddenly are no longer into calling everything gay

One of them wrote a book about how the culture of “ironic”homophobia, racism, sexism, etc in places like fyad ultimately was a key contributor to the current climate. Basically something like everyone was doing ironic stuff but eventually the group grew too large and people stopped getting the joke + you had nefarious actors like weev that would use the pretext to groom and recruit people

whoops
