What year do you think was the summit of the old CTH sub? I would say 2017. The response to the Charlottesville riots were fucking epic.

    Yeah that period absolutely ruled - it almost, but never quite got to the point of gamergate era SRS, but Chapo was waay better at out posting the CHUDs thanSRS ever was. I swear the rest of reddit became slightly more bearable for a while as well.

        And tankies/genzedong don't come close to how mad CTH made them.

        By homogenizing over time Reddit has killed everything that's fun to argue about in the comments.

          Dunno about this. They're already screaming "fuck off tankie" at anarchists & have 15 subreddits dedicated to attacking stawmen of us.

          At most, they've known the word "tankie" for 6 months. Outside of r/MoreTankieChapo, that word did not coexist with the Sanders campaign. Give it more time.

          Wait until the midterms and tankies are in r/politics saying Biden and Pelosi haven't delivered on anything. Libs are going to go into all-out rage mode, peaking the day after the midterms when Dems get destroyed.
