It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
If you call yourself an 'internet historian' there's no way you're not a massive fucking loser.
he's a loser because he's a nazi, not because he calls himself a historian of the internet.
Either of those on their own would make him a loser. He's both.
Being a nazi makes you a loser, not being an internet historian. Anything that exists for enough time is going to have a field of history associated with it and I don't think people are losers for being interested in the history of the internet. It's unrelated to the problem.
He does comedy YouTube videos about old internet drama and dead memes and shit. Internet Historian is his channel name, it wasn't educational and he isn't an historian, professional or amateur.
I understand that. I was responding originally up top to someone who said
This could apply to people other than this loser nazi channel, which is why I disagree. I wasn't assessing this particular channel itself or its content, which I am not familiar with and don't care about, but the broader question of whether or not anyone who calls themselves an internet historian is a loser. I can clarify further if needed.
is there some reason you're being such a dick?
