The site's vibe really did change before and after it got shut down
Smells like they're gonna hire actors to replace them lol
The site first blew up around 2010, but back then it wasn't dominated by extreme political types. Sure, there was a culture of mocking certain public figures, but that was more like meme culture spreading from image boardsβthink of it as shock humor that migrated into politics. Not great, but manageable. It was actually a decent community until the ferry disaster happened. After that, extreme radicals took over and the whole thing went to hell
Anyone doing this stuff actually felt ashamed wouldn't do it in the first place. They just publicly fronted with 'yeah we know we're idiots' to block criticism beforehand. That's just a defense mechanismβthey weren't admitting wrongdoing, they were just not trying to get caught in real life. If they actually felt shame, they'd either never have done it or quit once they crossed the line
honestly both sides cringe, the older users trying to relive their glory days AND the kids being toxic about it
Why are there so many complete idiots who claim they're not into that stuff but are basically the same as those fanatics? These morons who say they 'used to' go there are literally still sharing meme content from there. I get that extreme users are gross, but why do you guys argue like gossiping housewives saying 'well you guys used to eat that garbage, so why the drama?' 'It's been years, why bring it up now?' You're missing the whole point. Is the goal to bury the site like some sneaky feminist tactic?
And they're pushing the angle that the people in it are actors lmaooo
Why even bury it? It's already buried lol
Why are you guys so desperately trying to deny that the members are low-quality? Every group has losers, but since you feel like it's 'your' community, you're embarrassed and want to reject it γ
You gotta call out those idiot extremists to keep things in check. Burying them just turns the place into a breeding ground like a Zerg nest
Isn't this some high-level media play? 'You should feel ashamed!'
wait this is so real tho, the secondhand embarrassment when you see someone's old MySpace posts is REAL
bruh who cares, everyone's embarrassed by their internet history from 10 years ago, it's not that deep π
I watched the whole video and yeah lol they really are ex and current members. The real ones probably never left
Early versions of similar platforms weren't that different, but once politics got banned and the other site went extreme right, the cultures completely split
That face blur is weak and there's not even voice distortion lmaooo. People around them could totally figure out who they are just from hearing them γ γ
lmaooo why are the 30-year-olds so pressed about what Gen Z is doing online, just let people exist π
the generational drama is never ending but ngl the 30-somethings do be gatekeeping internet culture like they invented it
