I don't think this is some greater-than-three-dimensional board game by Byuu, though I'm confident he'd claim this privately for asspats. I think it was impossible to predict trannies & co. would latch onto this the way they did, most of them didn't even know who the hell Byuu was before he decided to listen to a song on repeat for an hour. They're just people with 24 hours of free time who get obsessed with whatever crosses their feed that's dramatic and devote themselves to it until the next thing pops up.
These are irrational people with no cause in life so they decide to make up something to fight for that requires no effort and no risk and they just happened to be irrational over some stranger's death that autistically wanted to emulate a console that existed before these trannies were conceived. I think the people who are terrified of having threads here as well as the people who already do have threads fanned the flames accordingly which probably helped, but no one can predict whatever tranny twitter gets mad at.
It's been 2 weeks and the current dilemma is tranny spammy worked which is really the only tactic they know as it usually works wonders on social media. If DreamHost just rightly said nothing, then they'd still be getting Nullbux for years to come and the trannies would have moved on.
