Ericka SimoneMe, after reading a superviral post on tikkitytoks that connects the overwhelming shift towards misogyny and red pill content flooding the internet in the last few years directly to the mishandling and drama of #Gamergate, with some tying the fallout from Gamergate directly to the results *of the American election and young white males sliding into nazism:
Me realizing the dismantling of #netneutrality, #twitter safety, #facebook moderation, coming of #CambridgeAnalytica and the #Gamergate situation all happened around the same time (2011 - 2015), directly driving the downslide into racism and misogyny on the internet, while realizing the first levels of #deadinternettheory started appearing immediately after:
Nah bro… they’re really right and I cannot belieeeeeve it took me this long to put all of this together. I was hyperaware of the fallout from net neutrality being dismantled and stormfront/4chan going unregulated. But this is just…. OMG.
Huntn00@ErickaSimone I remember the name, but you made made me look it up to remember what it was. Par for the course, in Right Wing shenanigans, the dismantling of a progressive civilization. “Oh” they muse, the longing for the good ole days of serfs and lords, gorging one’s self until you spew, big dogs eating little ones. This is what these bastards fantasize about their ideal life on Earth. 😐
@Huntn00 its day three of me really dismantling how horrible people involved in Gamergate are.
