    Yeah. It would make an interesting case study on the ways online communities become radicalized. Once it went private, a relatively small number of users were able to successfully shift the political ideology of the whole community.

      The cumtown hosts knew what kind of community they were fostering, the same could be said about opie and anthony if you ever listened to them.

        well, Adam and Stav kind of hated that part of the community because they'd be victims of their harassment. Nick thought it was funny in an extremely online, irony poisoned sort of way.

      even before it went private it was pretty dogshit. i only browsed it in its last year i think and the sub just got worse and worse. there were a bunch of frothing at the mouth extremely online racist shitheads who were able to kind of steer the sub into being worse and worse.
