Quoted the chapter for posterity:
Ah, yes. Attacking people who give you advice. That always works. You know the lolcow philosophy: they say they’ll quit, but they just come right back. She already did it once and it only lasted a day.
The stream. I personally don’t have the time and patience to archive such a long stream.Idiocracy
Ethan Ralph Versus Nick Fuentes

Here’s your soundtrack:
The other day, someone slid into my DMs and told me they had found me because there’s a lawsuit involving some of the people who were gangstalking me for years, and they reached out because they had seen screenshots of Telegram and Facebook groups where they had coordinated harassment campaigns.
I had been one of the main targets they discussed.
I had always known something like this existed simply because there were so many people involved who were all in the same clique, all saying the same things, all showing up at the same time, and trying to fuck up my work and my life in the same ways. That doesn’t happen without coordination.
So, I wasn’t surprised. But it’s always nice to have validation for things you suspected but could never prove.
Today, most of those people are nothing.
They’re doing nothing, contributing nothing, have no principles and beliefs that they’d lay it all on the line for. Most of them are DeSantis supporters, which should tell you all you need to know.
I bring this up because I just spent the last several days watching the back catalog of Ethan Ralph try to drum up a mob to destroy Nick Fuentes.
This is one of those instances where Nick and I have dealt with similar bullshit, but him on a much larger scale than I.
And I think a lot of people on the Internet who take any sort of controversial, dissident positions have to deal with stuff like this. I wish I had known that when it happened to me, I would have felt so much less alone.
I had this crazy idea that when I was working and trying to teach an audience and accomplish goals, I would be surrounded by adults, just like in my offline life.
Instead, I found myself in high school. I didn’t like high school the first time, much less going through it again 20 years later with much larger stakes.
If you’ve never heard of Ethan Ralph, he’s a trash podcaster with a trash following, a cross between Idiocracy and Bad Girls Club. He’s the low-IQ bully who believes cruelty and crudity are things to be admired.
He’s like the male Chrissie Mayr, someone who’s not funny but laughs at all their own jokes.
There are creators for everyone on the Internet, and stupid people need content to consume too. But I’m pretty sure my IQ has dropped at least 25 points in the last week from the amount of his content I’ve consumed to understand what happened. And Ethan Ralph has no shortage of stupid people who are willing to lap up his content to distract them from how much they hate themselves and their real lives.
He has an audience that he wields as a weapon against anyone who crosses him. And he was massively crossed by Nick Fuentes.
Here’s the TLDR: About four months ago, Nick banned Ethan off of his streaming platform Cozy after Ethan showed up drunk to an event Nick was hosting and caused problems. Ethan was the 2nd largest streamer on the platform behind Nick himself, so you might imagine that this caused some controversy.
Ethan responded by making it his mission to use his streams and his audience to destroy Nick, his political movement, and get as many people to leave his audience as possible and side with Ethan in the great divorce.
After watching dozens of hours of his content, I feel like I can sum up Ethan’s argument like this:
Not only did Ethan go after Nick, he also went after anyone who supported Nick, from other streamers to Nick’s fans, taking pride in doxing multiple people associated with Nick who hadn’t done anything to Ethan as revenge.
- Nick is gay (I’ve never heard a supposedly straight man talk about someone else’s sex life so much in my life).
- Nick supported the wrong people (even though Ethan said nothing about it when it happened and only brought it up later when Nick had pissed him off).
- Nick has controversial opinions (duh).
- Everyone who disagrees with Ethan should put a gun in their mouth (he literally says this)
He delivered an ultimatum that if people didn’t leave Nick by a certain date, there would be hell to pay.
Nick refused to engage him and told people not to give Ethan attention.
I’m not suggesting that I think Nick handled every decision leading up to all of this, or after it started, perfectly. I don’t think he did - there were much better ways to handle things, even if Ethan would have ended up flying off the handle regardless (as low-IQ people are prone to do).
But I can forgive Nick because he’s 25-years-old. Newsflash: 25-year-olds fuck up sometimes.
Ethan Ralph is in his late 30s, but acts half his age at best. It’s like he never left high school.
Watching it unfold, I thought about all the times I looked at the people who gangstalked me and thought, “these are the stupidest people on the planet, what the fuck is wrong with them?”
I was best friends with a girl who grew up on a trailer park growing up and so don’t think that I judge all people who live in a trailer park in the same way….but there is a reason that the stereotype trailer park trash exists.
The people who do this stuff are out of the trailer park.
They are low-IQ retards who hate themselves, and so they have to make life miserable for the people around them.
They will never accomplish anything extraordinary in life because they lack the capacity to do so.
But they can cause great destruction. Knocking things down is far easier than building them up.
I felt sorry for Nick, not because I think Nick is perfect (he’s not), but because it’s such a bullshit thing that doesn’t happen anywhere else but on the internet and in high school.
But when you make your living on the internet, you’re in high school.
You’re in high school with more money and more power and higher stakes, and once they target you, there’s nothing you can really do about it.
You just have to endure it.
You hope that, eventually, the retards will move on to something else.
But sometimes that takes a long time.
My bullshit lasted over three years before it died off.
Nick’s will probably last for as long as he’s a public person.
No matter what he says, what he does, whether he grows and evolves his positions or not, they will always be there. Anytime he makes a mistake (as we all do sometimes), they will use it against him indefinitely.
And they will go after everyone who supports him in order to isolate him.
And this is just one group of people amidst and army that are trying to destroy him.
No matter what you think of his ideas (and I disagree with a lot of them), you have to admire his perseverance.
The kid just keeps getting punched in the face and still gets back up.
So what if he does things imperfectly?
He still does more than people who do nothing at all.
Ah, yes. Attacking people who give you advice. That always works. You know the lolcow philosophy: they say they’ll quit, but they just come right back. She already did it once and it only lasted a day.
