I know a lot of working-class tech people are comrades. My ire is for the ones with enough wealth and connections and power to peddle cryptocurrency grifts, creep around the office (and demand everyone return to the office to creep on them) and in general live out every fratboy sex pest power fantasy that they were ostensibly previously denied in school.
some other "highlights" from the other thread:
- they started an OnlyFans account as an April Fools bit but for some godforsaken reason they decided to keep it and assign one of the only female staff members to work it over her clearly stated objections, where she was subjected to people fantasizing about having sex with her, along with pictures of genitalia.
- they covered up sexual assault allegations
- it's so hard to get time off that she self-harmed in order to be able to justify it and she ended up in the ER
there's a lot more in her twitter thread but I think those are the most damning allegations (other than what's in the OP)

As usual, "ironic" until it isn't.

The jocks grew up to be fascists. The nerds grew up to be fascists. As usual the only cool kids were the stoners and goths.
stoners
Some of them became fascists too by way of the "South Park Republican" pipeline.
Goths stay winning then. Oh also Juggalos, save for the ones that are white supremacists.
So how is TrueAnon? I hear a lot of Chapo refugees went there but idk, I get r/stupidpol vibes from it (people using the f-slur, unironically saying "deg-nerate," etc.)
It has old school chapo subreddit vibes but more conspiracy thinking
I never really found ChapoTrapHouse particularly wholesome either but TrueAnon does seem a little edgier. I just linked the full source because of some worthwhile comments.
Yeah, that's a good point. Chapo did have its fashy contingent that Hexbear had to purge (I cannot believe how well user pronouns worked for that).
I've never been fond of the self-described "dirtbag" left (Cumtown enthusiasts and even some claimant fans of RedScare among other podcasty bullshit like that). And individuals of those fandoms haven't been fond of me, either, and that's fine. I actually want society to improve somewhat and I want people to have happier lives with more just and fair living conditions and that's too much for people that put on the funny fuzzy hat just to be contrarian and edgy.
