Not even the people who were doing the posting. Looking back at my fyad days, even in the context of whole threads most of it is meaningless noise outside the moment it is posted.

Just on numbers alone, it's likely to come from Gaia Online, but I have no idea what goes on over there so I don't know if it's particularly embarrassing beyond being some sort of anime gaming roleplay forum or whatever the gently caress it is, so I don't know if that alone is enough to be a political scarlet letter.

Considering we have already had a presidential candidate quote Pokemon at a debate, I look forward candidates criticizing each others taste in anime.
