I hate cyclists, and I'm dutch. Cycle to work or the store? Fine by me, I do it all the time myself. Being a cyclist however? I'll hate your guts.
Tho I'm pretty sure it's not that uncommon of an opinion here, most of the time people either hate cyclists, or are one themselves.
They targeted memers.
Memers.
We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital upvote saying we did.
We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.
We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the circulation of a fresh image macro all to draw out a single extra point of karma per second.
Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same captions over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such memer nirvana that they can literally post these memes blindfolded.
Do these people have any idea how many screens have been smashed, systems over heated, memefolios destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?
These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We're already building a new one without them. They take our meme designers? Memers aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the memes our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds on 9gag. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex. Memers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another imgur struggle.
If people want to watch the video and get the full experience, here is a re-upload: https://youtu.be/dC_8IY6WlHU
I don't know the full story, but in the comments on the original video I read that Jordies was court ordered to edit out some parts of the audio because of "harassment".
I am an idiot. I blame the time, it was 3am.
The only tragedy here is that it hasn't happened yet.

Not a German but I'm dutch so close I guess, and I pretty regularly use =/= and == in text. I picked up == from IT class, not sure about =/=
