the tendency of 4chan to attract individuals isolated from their peers and society for one reason or another has led to a generation of people with completely inscrutable worldviews. stormfront nazis figured out pretty early that this particular demographic is susceptible to their propaganda but i don’t think they understood just how many confused / closeted LGBT youth would also feel attracted to these spaces. so now we just have Strasserite Nazi trans girls and Traditionalist Catholic “Femboys” posting on twitter with like gacha game avatars about how to effectively institute their desired ethnostate. really cool
the feelings of isolation and like i was different from and not accepted by my peers as a self hating closeted bisexual are part of what drove me to find kinship among other miserable LGBT shutins on 4chan when i was a teenager. this pattern is constantly repeating for kids all over the world. you don’t— read: can’t allow yourself to— seek help from any kind of actual supportive and understanding LGBT community in meatspace and are instead surrounded by other self hating, out of touch, and self destructively angry people in a consequenceless cybervacuum who are socially maladjusted and emotional unable to process not having a ‘normal’ sexuality/gender expression. its a completely seperate wing of the LGBT world where no behavior/belief needs to make sense or be practical and realistic, it only needs to feed into your self loathing to be justified.
thus you end up with strasserist picrew catgirl avatar trans woman posting nudes in between arguments about the feasibility of a white ethnostate in the Pacific Northwest and jokes about Sweden being majority black. self loathing expressed as a hatred for the world around you, and an inability to really come to terms with your own sexuality as an actual person who exists in the real world and not exclusively in discord servers called things like “The Chimpening Bugout Bunker—Nog Free Zone”
