I was sort of going there with a half-formulated joke. Ravenous is one of my favorite movies. The people behind Hannibal definitely saw it, in part they casted one of the secondary characters for the sameish role in Hannibal. they knew.

Y'all remember that doobie guy?
Doobie was an interesting person, but really, what about we talk about Trump.mp4 and the rest of the Trump Krew that used to populate GBS back when it got rebooted into the dire racist hive that was GBS 2.0.

I point out, in this instance, three different posters that started out with the self-indentifying avatars and gang-tags that made them out to be actual, or ironic, trump supporters: Ein Cooler Typ, OXBALLS DOT COM, and Trump.mp4

there were more that were part of that little group of shitposters, but as time went on, they started dropping like flies and some of their compatriots became a little bit more evenly kiltered as it became obvious that they'd be banned for saying horrible poo poo.

First was trump.mp4, a pro-trump shitposter that kept loving up threads constantly with his whinging, his final post looked like this:

Trump.mp4 posted:

Hey check it out, please ban me. I'll come back in 2018 to see if your website allows conservative viewpoints or not or at the very least to laugh at all the wailing in despair.

Thanks

EDIT: (nothing to do with this thread or the topic, seemed like a good place to post a banme though, that nazi girl has busted af teeth)

(USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)
Second was Ein Cooler Typ, another poo poo trumpposter that got perma'd when his response to issues in hawaii looked something like this:

Ein Cooler Typ posted:

Hawaii solely exists as a tourist trap and strategic naval base in the Pacific Ocean. It's full of butthurt, poor "natives" (in reality, an unholy mish-mash of natives, Japanese, Portugese and blacks) who hate white people (or "haole" as they refer to us), and are furious that we brought civilization to their primitive, cannibalistic kingdom.

(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

(USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)
Finally, we come to OXBALLS DOT COM, who, full disclosure, I had a run in with when he was making GBS threads on a thread made by Prester Jane. A vicious transphobe, he met his end posting disinformation regarding the ChristChurch mass shooting

OXBALLS DOT COM posted:

Do you really think the best way to counter the dead-eyed madman chanting slogans is to chant different slogans?

(USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

i bring these up because I know there were a few other posters that posted with them back in the gbs 2.0 days that had trumpkrew avatars, and oddly enough some of them came out of the woodwork to shitpost in QCS in defense of FYAD's transphobia.

how very strange.

This is actively confusing for me each and every time because there was another Taylor Swift account (but must be spelled differently) banned around the same time or I 2017, maybe for trolling... But that Taylor Swift was a nice Latinx(?) feminist, activist woman who several of us met at a DC goons meet and did not espouse Nazi views. :tinfoil:

This is a good post, Dumb Lowtax is right, and I'm not going to let it get drowned out by fyad

Also sestze posts have been good

Dumb Lowtax posted:

According to a mod in there, Cuntellectual is in the queue to be hopefully perma'd for today's stunningly embarrassing display of concern trolling to harass the trans thread, while unconvincingly and falsely claiming ignorance about what FYAD is.

But I'd like to just point out some context for this post by ArfJason.

Two FYAD posts from Cuntellectual this year and 3 more posts in 2016 (in the IK selection thread nonetheless) is precisely what it looks like when a FYAD regular accidentally leaves their alt account signed in while replying in the pink forum.

Obviously. A rando account that only literally only posts in games otherwise has no explanation for jumping in the Trans thread while claiming to know intimate details of FYAD drama.

Jack Daniels even immediately probed them both times in 2016, for accidentally using the wrong account. Going by their post history, it's the alt account that a FYAD regular used exclusively for games forum posting, to build up post history in there as their cover for whenever it was time to bring that alt out. Really basic online griefing trick. They hosed up once or twice but no one found those needles in a haystack until a mod decided to do a lot of manual digging after a serious callout.

You, a leading FYAD regular, know that this was a case of a FYAD alt account, and that it often happens that way by accident. Someone as close friends with the others likely knows exactly whose alt it was that just got got. Stop coming in here to bullshit the rest of us. Kindly show yourself the door and stay the gently caress out of these threads where you're constantly 100% manipulative, just like that poster in the Trans thread was today, instead of immediately barging in to do damage control for how their story gets retold.

Really because I find it interesting that when we see moments where out-and-out bigotry of a stripe rears its head on these forums, we find some relentlessly lovely people not far behind.

The leaders that get permabanned are usually different, but the supporting cast is the same tried and true individuals that show up and shitpost/concern troll or purposefully derail.

Absolutely. We need to use the “one-drop” rule when it comes to FYAD posts and ban on sight anyone who has even dipped a toe into that cesspool, just to be sure.

Yep. Anyone pretending FYAD isn’t and hasn’t always been an outpost for bigoted sociopaths is either delusional or one of them.
