>>2817271>Trinity discussion againYou have your things slightly out of order. Though trinity has and is used objectively, just as a subtitute for inamegura, or however you'd want to call the combination, looking at the direct usage of the word early on, it was rather tribalistic in its usage practically from the start. Being mad at people just for using the word objectively is silly, of course.
Reposting this monstrosity just to celebrate trinitydiscussion

>People couple thread back arguing about whether trinity was about tribalism early onSo I went digging. The first weeks of these threads were quite wild with shitposting, so I (and not many others either) never really noted trinityfags until last weeks of september.
First ever mentions of trinity. Interestingly, happened before than trio. First ever trinity mentions are related to the early powerhouse that was the NA stream chain, with Ame, Gura and Ina streaming right after each other. I have no idea if the third mention implies 5ch was doing it or not. But anyway after these, trinity was not mentioned in a long time.
>>26361004>>26362459>>26440656First ever mention of trio was shortly after, and seems to have just been someone who enjoyed the NA chain.
>>26468473>>26522030>>26528732Some light narrative posting, and first properly tribalistic trio post.
>>26586657>>26615921Now we getting into it boys, after this relation chart, offhand trio shitposts start increasing.
>>26630420>>26707296>>26713410>>26716226The Inamegura collab. I'm trying to look at everything using "trio", and they quickly devolve into more and more blatant tribalism.
>>26748131>>26748173>>26756102>>26756181Next time trinity was mentioned, seems to have been during the membership activations, and after the first couple posts, it's quickly adopted by shitposters. Trio still used also.
>>26807173>>26821127>>26830133>>26832181 Honorable mention for "trio posters">>26851180>>26825371>>26830302And after this trio and trinity just becomes part of the vocabulary. Trying to document further is pointless, because it's used so much. Not exclusively shitposting, there are more decent posts, but especially when looking at posts that use those words, they are more on the tribalistic side.
Here's my post calling them out. No proper name yet existed so I called them "tri-tribalist".
>>26855814>>26835869 Honorable mention for shitposter using "trinity FAG" to attack AmeSome guy asking what to call them
>>26901643>>26901753 Me>>26901981 first "Trinityposters">>26910497 first "Trinityfags">>26940873 first "Trinityfag">>26942268 first "Trinitynigger"And from there shitposting on both sides of the topic increases as Trinityfags is adopted.
Shortly after, some anon claimed he was an early trinity shitposter, who didn't mean to be tribalistic. I remember this post, and I feel like I've misquoted it at some point later on, and may have contributed to the idea that early trinityfags were supposedly not doing it for tribalism.
>>27155063Now, consider Takamori for example. Is it inherently more or less tribalistic than Trinity? I don't fucking know. It's hard to not sound tribalistic when what you are doing is using a name that connects 3 out of 5 members of a group together. In the end, you should read the archives, and not just what I linked, since I mostly linked the starts of different "phases".
I had fun reminiscing though.
