Fair. I was just chalking it up to that person apparently being a wingnut psycho.

But regarding “it’s coming into the piracy community”: uh… I’m pretty sure I remember a lot of super weird shit being somewhat common in the piracy community even a decade or two ago. There was always a lot of crossover between piracy communities and the darker parts of the web (e.g. 4chan).

@gravitas_deficiency lol. 4chan is a whole different category in itself. Fucking random posts on /t/ are golden. Also fair. irc was the golden age with irc bouncer and xdcc send bots. Ugh. Curse BitTorrent, stremio, syncler, plex, jellyfin, emby, emule, Napster, winmx, dc++and debrid services for popularizing piracy.
