If he was being watched by 4channers. He’d be reading their language and using said language mixed with his own. I don’t remember any of the clips I saw of him saying it but I’m not eliminating that it may have happened
Comment on Brave CEO rants about "lefties," "glowies," George Soros

I blame 4chan’s constant harassment of the man for his speech and early death. They invaded his live streams and gaslit him into believing, among other things, that he was in a relationship with someone else. Collectively, I think they’re responsible for his suicide.

Didn’t a lot of the people from back in the old 4chan days move over to KiwiFarms? This feels like it would be a kiwifarms thing these days rather than 4chan

Basically, KiwiFarms were formed by people who were too much for 8chan, which was formed by people too much for 4chan, which was formed by people too much for Something Awful.
Free speech absolutism was a mistake…
(If you ask: there are now people too much for KiwiFarms, usually those that also want to torture animals rather than going after animal abusers for internet cookie points)

Not quite. KiwiFarms is older than 8Chan. KiwiFarms was originally called CWCki and was dedicated specifically to Chris-chan because Encyclopedia Dramatica wasn’t quite what some of that person’s harassers wanted it to be. 8chan wouldn’t open for another 8 months after CWCki was founded but before it was renamed KiwiFarms.
Let’s be clear here - Chris-chan has been systematically harassed for literal decades, has a bunch of problems at least some of which are consequences of that. Chris-chan is also probably the single most documented human being in history as a consequence of the massive and dedicated “fan” base.

It’s been a while since I watched a documentary about him, but apparently it was both… Either way, incredibly horrid treatment.
