>>41676054You could go as far back as Chanology, if not earlier, for exposing the site to the masses at large and leaving it vulnerable to people who don't "get it" but still try hard to pretend they do. People whine about sekrit klub all they want but gatekeeping and shit like "lurk moar" were necessary to maintain a culture that allowed for stuff like that to exist without drowning out actual discussion.
Now this place is indistinguishable from dumpster fires like Reddit or Twitter in terms of users: it's all children and morons regurgitating the latest meemayz, either so they can use it for attention and internet brownie points in one of those other sites or because they know no better and want to fit in with the rest. Only difference is you can still call someone a faggot when warranted without getting banned (sometimes).
