This is all a bunch of terrible garbage but lol at the idea that people are worrying about tumblr and the terrible spectre of Political Correctness making SA weak and unable to compete with 9gag/funnyjunk sites stealing jokes from webcomics

It's really dumb and even Lowtax knew it was dumb like less than a year ago, when he was regularly engaging with both the alt right and tumblr types and aknowledged they were both awful sides of the same coin. It's just a reaction to the Shmorky thing. You can see the huge difference between Lowtaxs posts from the 3rd in the GBS thread and the 8th on

Voidburger LP'ed all of the Silent Hill games back in the late 00's; that's how I know her at least. I guess she's still LPing!

"I'm galaxy-kin, my pronouns are star, stars, and starself, please tag your pictures of apples uwu" is pretty ridiculous but it is not and has never been anywhere near the other side of the coin that says "kill all niggers", hope that helps!

Did they use your strawman as fuel to burn it?

Edit: Or perhaps they had easier access to this one.

I dunno, at this point I'm legit worried for the guy's mental health. You spend a decade+ telling the internet "come at me bro, you'll never shake my scabrous sense of humor & ironic distance" but when something stressful (really, several somethings from the sound of it) happens in real life, and you've still gotta deal with that torrent of poo poo on top of it?

Kinda hoping he sees a psych at some point. (Schmorky too, I guess, but he's proven pretty decisively at this point that he's a toxic personality with no intention of trying to change.)

The only thing I know voidburger from is her arguments with the nutter that was a mod for the Silent Hill wiki and insisted the main villain's motivation was that he was circumcised, because everything bad in life and in video games was due to male circumcision.

I've been posting about lowtax more than I realized so this'll be the last one, but I think he's just too involved in social media. He responds to basically everyone who tweets him and will go out of his way to post on other forums that mention him or something awful, the majority of which are going to be hostile. That would've hosed with my head years ago, let alone if my family was involved or targeted. I think taking a long vacation from the internet would be a good thing for him

Holy poo poo I forgot about that. Do you know where to find that cause I remember it being pretty good

If I remember correctly the dude edited as many of the wiki pages as he could to make 90% of them reference the horrors of circumcision in some way

No poo poo that's because tumblr weirdos and the alt-right aren't equally awful, that's literally the point

If you have an example of a tumblr weirdo having an impact on the world on the level of the Charleston shooting or even the racist graffiti that sprung up mysteriously the morning of Nov 9th by all means post it but overall a bunch of sadbrained nerds upset about the lack of nonbinary pronouns in video games are not the same thing as an emboldened group of people who are out there committing hate crimes irl

Nobody is putting them in the same category. When people talk about "the alt-right" they're talking about dipshits on Internet forums and YouTube vloggers. It's peurile to pretend like people are just ignoring mass shooting racists because they have some motivation to do so when it's pretty clear they're talking about morons online. This line of argument is exactly as retarded as people, say, dismissing BLM as a whole as a group of racist thugs because of those dipshits that tortured the handicapped guy. You're getting really hung up on people making offhand comments on them being "just as bad" on an internet comedy forum, an insubstantial opinion of an individual which affects nothing anywhere.

OK even ignoring the effects of these groups in reality you are still talking about one group that writes blogs about how Dr. Strange is racist and we should respect everyone's pronouns and then another group writing blogs about how the Jews control everything and we should kill all the black people, like that's not the same coin or even really the same currency
