>>32852745I mean, if you were to ask me for a serious answer, its driven by several factors, not least of which is that anons treating this thread as a fallout shelter from their homeboards inevitably resulted in the grime and filth following them here. There's a reason why the teammate, chumpedo, deadbeat, kfp and so on shit perpetuates beyond the initial shitters, and that's because screencaps get shared to Facebook or Twitter or Youtube community posts
When was the last time there was any sort of unified response to a shitpost? To doxshittery? I remember when posts trying to defend Holo Historian got universally shit on. Nowadays, more than half the responses treat it as an honest question instead of an attempt to stir shit.
Fucking hell, I was able to track specific posts from various kiwifarms users last year. But calling that type of shit out now isn't going to work when no one pays attention, Shitters won't care, just work a new angle. People looking to hold a discussion will ignore it as a samefag taking an opposite stance to try and draw the "BASED BASED BASED" type replies when their initial position gets no response. And people tired of this shit will just silently scroll by.
Funnily enough, the kiwifarms users that used to frequent their thread were also replaced by shitter-esque mass-replying mouthbreathers. There's a twisted satisfaction in knowing that things devolving into shit isn't unique to hlgg.
