Short version: she was raped, part of her grieving process was joking about it, then her friend was raped, they both worked through it with jokes, nostalgia critic is a monster and published their joking for lulz, now rape survivors are being attacked for making light of their own rapes because twitter is loving evil and context is a foreign concept

Long version: watch the video. It's actually legitimately amazing watching such a smart and funny person traverse the minefield of how disgusting and reactionary twitter is.

Must admit I'm not a massive fan of her comedy but god drat if that isnt some good casting, can def see her playing a no nonsense badass. Also lol that you can just get green screened out these days, that's great.

You weren’t necessarily doxxed if you got a helldump thread, but doxxing can definitely be a part of someone’s cancelling process.

The big similarity that I was pointing to though is the “List of Sins”

In helldump you would post quotes of the helldumpee from other subforums, and usually the sin was that they were being weird or obsessive. This irony was lost on a lot of people.

On twitter the sins are perceived -isms and -phobias, usually alleged by people who have some -isms and -phobias themselves. The irony is lost on a lot of people.

Yeah helldump was great when it was rounding up sex criminals and potential mass shooters.

But then it wound down to "this guy once made a very obvious joke about jerking off in the wendy's bathroom, let's get him!" and shutting it down was the best call.

Eventually you run out of obvious sex offenders and crazies and have to let the supply grow back up a bit.

Speaking of sex offenders and crazies, Mike splicing Jay's big grinning face over the Event Horizon butt fisting and decapitation blowjob ship's log was the funniest thing and I've randomly laughed at it like 4 days in a row now.

There was an old comic book series from the 1980s that I read at way too young and impressionable of an age, called American Flagg!. The first 14 issues have some pretty intriguing story arcs that get wrapped up quite nicely at the end.

There was an old comic book series from the 1980s that I read at way too young and impressionable of an age, called American Flagg!. It was written and drawn by Howard Chaykin (who later wrote and drew the very explicit comic Black Kiss, and also wrote for the original Flash TV series that was around for a bit), and apart from some very 1980s things that didn't age well (after the last world war, everyone decided to just go live in giant shopping malls), and Chaykin using the series as a way to broadcast his interests/fetishes that would become recurring themes throughout almost all his later comics work (most everyone dresses in a sort of hybrid combo of 1940s and 1980s fashions; lots of big-breasted women in lingerie and stockings), one thing that stands out about the AF! comic was how it basically used the idea of movies and TV using the digital replacement of actors and making it commonplace.

The main character of AF! was a former TV actor who starred in a series called "Mark Thrust, Sexus Ranger", which was basically "if James Bond actually featured pornographic sex scenes". He was fired from the series (which is where the comic book starts, shortly after his firing and decision to basically become an actual government agent) when the producers implemented a technology (called Tromplography™) that essentially allowed them to replace him with a CGI version of himself. At the time I read it in the 1980s, it seemed like just another wacky sci-fi concept, but I never would have guessed that in 2021, we're actually very close to it becoming a reality.

Sorry for the effort post, but I'd say American Flagg! is still worth a read if you get the chance. Only read up to issue 14 or so, though; after that, Chaykin started to lose interest and it really shows in the steep decline in quality (and definitely don't bother with anything after he leaves, or when he briefly came back before the publisher finally shut down). The first 14 issues have some pretty intriguing story arcs that get wrapped up quite nicely at the end.
