The article doesn’t mention SSC directly, but I think it’s pretty obvious where this guy is getting his ideas
minus-squareathairmor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up27·8 months agoHow is this not satire? It’s that fucking stupid/scary. I guess this is what happens when critically insecure nerds get a lot of money. They fantasize about a world where people fear them and the bullies do their bidding.
minus-squareMii@awful.systemslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·8 months ago How is this not satire? This is what I ask myself every time I read any of this techfash nonsense, but then I remember that this isn’t even a new idea. These are the same people who once read a John Titor knockoff shitpost on Reddit and thought, hey, that’s a brilliant idea and we should totally do that. I’m pretty sure there’s even a post about it on old SneerClub or probably TechTakes.
