Rent. Free.

The long-ago troll tantrum from video gamers upset by women kicked off the culture wars for the stupid era

That's...one way to paint it. And those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

One of the most unnerving aspects of billionaire Elon Musk's illegal rampage through the federal government is how stupid it is.

It's funny to watch the narratives form in real time, as they get their marching orders. They weren't complaining it was illegal before, but now it's the go-to attack, and everyone is talking about how gosh dang illegal the whole thing is!

Under the false auspices of "efficiency,"

I'd tell Salon to blow me, but I know I'm not their type...I'm an adult.

DOGE owes everything to Gamergate, from its aesthetics to its tactics to its manpower, which largely draws on the same young men — now 10 years older — who were radicalized to the far-right via social media.

Only the left can use social media to radicalize people, reeeeeee!

I love the screeching about "muh illegal Drumph DOGE." 1) DOGE is nothing more than a revamped and empowered Obama office. 2) Severino v. Biden explicitly states "removal at will is the presumption under the Constitution, and because nothing... indicates that Congress constrained the President's presumptive removal authority..." 3) "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America." The Executive branch is the sole domain of the chief executive.
