Ikr, like did he work for Boeing or…? :-P

He definitely had “character” though, as someone who faced death, multiple times, and had to stare at it and let it change him, to focus his efforts on stuff that really matters in life. (anti-capitalistic principles I guess?:-D)

Nah - back then, that was a problem for tomorrow’s (now today’s) politicians to have to solve. So long as it worked to put Trump in power, and attempt to remain there, everything was going to be A-okay. And that’s my problem with that kind of thinking: it works, but it’s always only ever short-term for some reason.

Maybe if it did a little more LDS, it would understand:-).

That will never end… they will keep creating new ones! On the bright side, that’s a sign of a healthy Fediverse. On the other hand, it shows how desperately we need technical advances like “categories” where we can turn on/off whole classes of communities, which is coming in some newer non-Lemmy Fediverse exploration tools (I don’t know how high a priority it is but perhaps it will come to Lemmy as well, eventually).

In the meantime, we make do with what we have.:-)

Thank you for sharing this story.

Since GamerGate was mentioned, here is a link to Innuendo Studios’ analysis called “Why Are You So Angry?”, although I prefer its more broad sequel “The Alt-Right Playbook”.

Though without the kind of linked personal stories, so many people would not be receptive to hearing such analyses, so they both are kinda necessary. :-)
