back in the day i made a parody site of maddox with his wildly fluctuating seemingly random definitions and tastes and some loving dickbags decided to doxx me by being "super offended" by my "crassness". a whole flock of morons calling me the f-word, the r-word, and everything else because the site with the html shaped like "maddox suuucks" was a super serious site what with randomly saying stupid poo poo one second, changing it the next, and framing every argument as "the manliest" while using his color scheme. loving concern trolling motherfuckers started calling me at home.
the internet is a poo poo place full of poo poo people.

I remember Maddox made a post saying that if you wanted to stop illegal immigration the solution was to pay more so non-immigrants would be willing to do the work and he got death threats for it.

it’s even simpler than that, just make harsh punishments for employers that hire undocumented immigrants, and raid a bunch of farms and landscaping businesses. GOP doesn’t actually want to make business stop paying immigrants they just want to appeal to their racist base

Maddox is sort of the distilled essence of turn-of-the-century Internet edginess. It was left-wing backlash to conservative moralizing, it only shifted the other way and then backslid into the alt-right when "political correctness" became a thing.

didn’t political correctness become a thing in the 80s?

The term began to be used seriously by conservative commentators in the late 80s, and then became a household phrase in the 90s. That's when you started seeing stuff like a Politically Correct Dictionary full of out-of-context quotes from moonbat commie-lib academics.

yea i said easier, not better. my point being that the gop doesn’t even need to get behind raising minimum wage in order to address undocumented workers. they don’t even try, bc the business interests prefer cheap exploitable labor
