Something Awful Troons

You remind me of that long essay someone (forget who) wrote to explain what loveshies are. Specifically, the part where loveshies congregate in hate-soaked forums to tell themselves how special they are - it's like a crack addict who needs treatment going to a group of other crack addicts who tell him there's nothing possibly wrong or dangerous with crack and instead of examining himself, he should assume everyone else is the bad guy.
Was it this? Or is this just another super long essay on the same subject?

I do feel the need to mention the tremendous hilarity of the fact that multiple TMT posters also post in the Ladychat thread, which is its own universe of fucked up bullshit (due in no small part to said troons). It's almost like you've uncovered yet another rat king, fellas.

A taste of what's to cum:

Speaking as someone who was once afraid my desire to trans was "merely a fetish," I gotta say that fetishists who actually do transition are just as "legitimately" trans as anyone else. There was a quote from Nevada, i think towards the beginning of the book IIRC, about one of the main character's "realizations" was "The only time i felt comfortable with my body was when I dressed up and jacked off" or something like that. *is too lazy to find the exact quote right now*.

To me, it's not surprising that the things a person might initially do in a sexual context by yourself, tells you a little bit about the things that make you feel happy and comfortable. I mean that book is basically transgender Catcher in the Rye (for better or worse) but it had a lot of really honest and frank insights. I read it when I was really depressed last year and it actually resonated with me a great deal, the idea of being trans but still struggling to find your place in the world and being a little jaded about it. I'm not saying it's always good to base life decisions on a "fetish," but sometimes just opening up and realizing there's a bit more to this "fetish" than you originally thought can be helpful in finding breakthroughs. But everyone takes their own path to being trans, and I can't really see any particular paths as "illegitimate." Even the trans women who hang out with TERFs and will happily harass other "weird" trans women, they aren't any less trans than me and I'd never delegitimize their identity as an insult. I can just block them and move on (usually; i haven't had any experiences further than that when it comes to horizontal hostility)

Lupus Rufus AKA Sylvie Wolf is one of the more annoying TMT posters who isn't all that active as of 2016 or so. He's known to be an autist who lives with his grandma and grandpa and complains about pretty much everything despite having two people willing to put up with his pasty, powdery, worthless arse and if I recall correctly he's getting a degree that will look good on the resume he'll be using to apply for Target with. He pushes 'beardfemme' hard because he's pretty much Jake Alley but with slightly more effort put into appearance, and thinks he should get a 'basic income' for doing nothing by virtue of having self-diagnosed PTSD and other things he will argue with anyone about.

As you can see, he's basically spinning the roulette wheel of low-effort professions he can try to dip his toes in to see if he can get money for any of this shit and it's not working because he doesn't have the skills necessary to actually monetize anything he's trying out to avoid work. His twitter follow list is basically a who's who of rat king trannies because (surprise surprise) he's been moving away from the TMT rat king to try to snuggle up with one of the bigger twitter rat kings that generally sustains itself with a patreon ponzi scheme that he's too criminally stupid to realize is a dead-end for anyone trying to get in right now.

He's also one of the very obvious cases of autogynephilia. In the post quoted above he mentions putting on dresses and jerking off in the mirror being a point of 'realization', but unfortunately that realization was apparently not that he is a sad, whispy haired incel who can't fucking apply makeup. This is probably the most attention anyone's ever given him.

Somethingawful is a jihad of shit against the internet.

You really have no idea how far these rabbit hole goes it's not just the internet. These people are in big tech, politics, law enforcement, the state department, and not least of all journalism now. It's not just kids and tumblrinas shit posting or spit balling how they're going to enforce a juvenile vision of the world. I know people joke about weaponized autism with 4ch but it's more like lab cultivated strains of doomsday autism with goons.
 
I'm pretty sure still is but don't have a specific account to point to.

The retrogradesnowcone account was eventually permabanned. Initially, the admins didn't do anything about it when people linked it to Nyberg because the account was last active in 2006.

[Story of Jiffypop45]

Jiffypop45 is the troon I mentioned earlier who is continuing to be fucked into a transition he realized he doesn't want. The forums convinced him to go therapist-shopping until he found someone who'd approve HRT, and the results are as you'd expect! Rather than a write-up, I think a post directly from the horse's mouth is the most appropriate:

A few weeks ago I posted about how I didn't feel entirely comfortable with my budding after a few more weeks of time to think I've reached a point where I'm starting to feel uncomfortable with several areas of my transition.

In an almost dysphoric sense, I don't feel as though my breasts (that are getting larger) belong, it's to the point that I'm wearing a tight fitting under armour athletic shirt under my daily wear top to prevent them from showing and make me feel a bit flatter.

I'm very much bothered by what's going on down stairs, I feel like everytime I go to masturbate I get very panicked and feel like "maybe this time it won't work" it's really frustrating to masturbate, and I feel like I have to force myself to do it and because of that it's very difficult to get started doing so.

The strange part of this though is that I do greatly enjoy my softening skin, and how it's affecting to my hair growth due to the dropped T. I'm working on voice stuff, and working on making my mannersms as feminine as possible where they aren't already. This has mostly slowing down my speech and using pitch instead of volume for inflection as well as just raising the pitch as much as I can, my "deep voice" is around 80hz so I've got a bit to go.

I've always wished I looked much more feminine, and thought I genuinely wanted to be a woman. However, losing my penis functionality and the lack of excitement over breast growth has me doubting this. So far I haven't really felt an great surge of "OH MY GOD ESTROGEN. YES!!!!!!" that people mention either at about ~45 days on.

I discussed this with my therapist and she has a feeling that I may not be a transwoman, that she could definitely see me as a nonbinary/genderqueer/etc... person just very feminine. That makes me uncomfortable, I've never liked that idea, even if in some ways it might describe how I'm feeling. For now I'm not going to contact my doctor to change my doses as I hope maybe my feelings will resolve in the near future. I am really worried to the point of brief bouts of anxiety and tears at times though, so I do feel as though I need some resolution here.

As far as I know, he's still on HRT.

It takes a special kind of moron to continue doing the thing that he discovered is making him miserable solely due to peer pressure telling him to do so.
 
Oh yeah. The TMT convinced him that he'd be happy if he just continued HRT and let his dipshit therapist continue to pound more patently false bullshit into his head just because he hates 'maleness' to an irrational degree. Rather than ask him what is it about maleness he can work out his problems with so he can accept that he's not got dysphoria, they pretty much just offered more and more ways he can find himself not-male. So he's going to end up with a ruined body and fucked up endocrine system on what is pretty much a delusion smashed into his head by the bullies in the troon community.
 
Pardon the messiness of the snipping, but the 12 inch donger quote is somewhere in this wall of assorted posts. These quotes don't even begin to touch LMO's deep unhappiness with himself and wild swings of self concept. He has a very porn-informed idea of what women are and should look like, and talks about all the plastic surgery he's going to get (and has been lobbying his health insurance company hard for them to cover all of the things he wants done.) In the past few months he has overcompensated for that by spewing feminism 101.
