…then that also means it’s been about 8 years since I first stumbled upon the chapo sub in the run-up to the election
That’s a lot of twitter screenshots
2016 was 8 years ago
honestly feels like yesterday.

Fairly sure I first found the sub in 2017 or 2018. I remember the header was a modified Oregon Trail image, lol
I remember when gate just started only a short while before then, and I got to see fascists strategize, in real time, about how to blur their own movement’s origin story with “ethics in games journalism” concern trolling.
2016 was gate’s grand victory, at least that was how they saw it: “WE ELECTED A MEME” “HE WILL MAKE ANIME REAL!”
They did want to “make anime real” by way of a fascist police state that’d also toss them government-mandated waifu slaves when it had the time, just like in the isekai treats. That was also when said that giving those creeps government-mandated waifu slaves was “possibly the price of civilization.” Considering Dr Professor Lobster MD PHD’s previously given opinions, imagine no welfare, no social safety nets, no government programs except government-mandated waifu slaves in what chuds think would be chud heaven.
2016 was 20 years ago and also last year.
