TGWTG Dan Olson / Folding Ideas - Pseudo-Intellectual Hipster, Child Pornographer, and All-Around Exceptional Individual

That tweet is weirdly creepy. Like in a "I'm touching myself right now" sort of way.

I simply can't stand those sorts of people, they have to virtue signal constantly "I love super intelligent Women!" "I'm not a terrible person unlike *insert tweet*"

You know they are trying so hard to distance themselves from the bigots that they claim not to be. Like Lindsay Ellis only dating minorities, talking about having a minority student living with her every second week (I haven't seen nary a peep about her new b/f so he mustn't be a minority she can use to score points with) constantly talking about how racist her home town was, etc etc....

I mean what are these people? I wonder if they have any substance at all.
 
Dan Olsen is the guy who planted child pornography on 8chan, isn't he? I knew the left had an ends justified the means thing going on, eg: Moviebob's Gamergate tweet about there being no bad tactics only bad targets, but that was extraordinarily nasty. Is he still around?

I don't know of any evidence it was planted. From what I gathered 8chan had a global rule against posting CP, the owner claimed that flagged posts were deleted within an hour on average. They had a /pedo/ board for self-described pedos to chat about gross things. The board also frequently posted clothed jailbait photos and kids in swimsuits. Which is creepy as hell, but legal.

Dan Olsen reported that 8chan was a den of child pornography, and as "proof" he downloaded a bunch of pics to his computer and included a screenshot of blurred out thumbnails on his harddrive. Assuming the blurred photos were actual CP, then he committed a felony. But the 8chan community matched up most of the blurred thumbnails to their source images and revealed that they were kids in swimsuits.

So either Dan broke the law by downloading a bunch of CP as "research", or he downloaded a batch of legal pics and claimed it was pornography for the sake of his article. Anyway whether or not 8chan ever had CP was irrelevant, they still got delisted from google and kicked off Paetreon as a result of SJW petitioning.

Gamergate also threw a fit because Dan's main goal of the article was to associate GG with the /pedo/ board, because there's also an (almost-dead) Gamergate board on 8chan.

EDIT: I didn't even know about the US/Canadian legal differences, thanks OP

It was, at least on the board Olson got it from. The board was created and the images uploaded to it by Laurelai Bailey, founder of the SJWiki. Here's the proof:

Lolcows have a habit of deleting their stupidity and trying to pretend those things never happened, so remember to take a screenshot or use sites like archive.is and Tweetsave.
Since it's more or less their way of backtracking, it makes it all the more funny to see how they try to dig themselves out of the hole when archived and tweetsaved post are brought to light, complete with their name.

It is okay. We all mixed up all those goony neckbeards at times here.
Wouldn't they all be more or less the same anyway which leads to us mixing them all up?

As for Dan Olsen himself, the picture of him shown in the first post, his mug does give off the look of a wannabe-intellectual hipster. In all seriousness, him trying to download CP to blame 8Chan is pathetic in of itself. He dirtied his hands just to get rid of something he didn't like and Butts made things worse for himself by trying to play white-knight.
 
Interesting stuff, so Laurelai owned the IRC chatroom and advertised it on a pedo board? Not seeing anything about creating an 8chan board. Unless you mean a specific thread

Holy shit, this is real?

I didn't even know Todd was Malay or whatever-the-fuck. I always just assumed he was fat.

He's SE Asian of some sort

You're talking about people who spend all their time talking about media. Their entire identity is based around the fictional works of other people - of course they have no substance.

I.... just can't understand how these people work, they just appear to consume whats in front of them from their "approved sources" and regurgitate it back out to their social media feeds. It just boggles my mind, how do they even function? Shouldn't most of these types of people be on disability? Surely they must have some sort of psychological issues that are unaddressed.

They are on disability, it's called Patreon. The only difference is it's not coming out of my tax dollars.

Perhaps, but it's a group of people who you could assume have psychological issues that are unaddressed, that have an audience of other untreated people and possibly normal people in there too. It's kind a kind of terrifying thought.

While frightening, on the other hand, they are all busy jerking each other off over stupid shit. Maybe Patreon is just a way to contain all these societal rejects.
 
This is from a while back but worth a look. Dan announces he's going to PAX West and of course has to inject his identity politics bullshit into it:

Why don't you just post up a sign saying "No Whiteys" Dan? It'll save you so much time.

Also, there probably weren't many PoC, women or LGBT people at PAX West because apparently these conventions are a hotbed of serial predators and harassers who go unpunished. At least that's what your side would have us believe eh Dan?

It is Seattle, so maybe you'll get some LGBT folk, and maybe some black guys outside selling random shit. Inside it's probably going to be an "albino sausage fest" (unquote) because that's kind of the target market.
 
Of the many, many things that I hate about self-righteous sidjwas, their two-facedness about the effects of work of fiction irritates me the fastest of all.

Cucksucker, they're flashes of light and color on screen. Any kind of person can be behind the curtain. Kratos was voiced by a black guy. Meowth and Yugi's Grandfather were voiced by a tranny woman. Most of the Saiyans were originally voiced by a Japanese Grandmother back in the homeland. This shit isn't even recent: heartthrobs like Michael Jackson, John Travolta, James Dean, Liberace, and Rock Hudson were all homos. Marilyn Monroe, Ellen Page, Jenna Jameson, and Judy Garland were dykes.

The creative endeavors main reason for existing is to allow people to walk around as things other than themselves. If "it's fiction" is your defence for "all fiction should hold to socially responsible ethnicity and sexuality quotas, not to mention my list of pre-approved moral lessons" even though you've presented zero evidence for how this causes any sport of real problem for people, it's just as good a defence for creators ignoring your Sarkeesian-happy ass.
 
Dan made a "game" last year called Resist. It's one of the most pretentious goddamn things I've ever seen.
The dawn comes, and after dawn, day, and after day, dusk, and after dusk night.

Resist is a lyric game about fate. Instability is intentional.

Uses the keyboard.

This is the main menu with the only instructions.

Here is the game itself. All you can do is either walk to the right or stand still. Walking causes both meters to decrease. Standing still causes them to increase. The background music is mostly a bunch of droning tones.

If you walk long enough to get the entropy meter low, the game starts spawning things in weird places.

If the entropy meter gets really low, the game starts spawning a bunch of intentionally glitched objects. The framerate of the game plummets and eventually locks up your browser. I'm not sure if it's possible to get the entropy meter to zero because the game always shits the bed first.

If you stand still long enough to fill the ennui meter, the character disappears, and you get this screen.

I have no idea what the hell Dan's trying to convey with this, other than "look how fucking deep I am."

That's exactly what he's trying to say, "I'm a deep guy, so deep you don't even get this" that is literally the point of it, if you pressed start game and it just played a video of him sucking himself off, it would be the exact same thing.
 
Sort of like "abstract artists" who never showed any skill whatsoever at representational art, I always assume, and never incorrectly yet, that idiots who make "games" like this are just utterly incompetent at making games, so they pretend the utter garbage they shit out is intentionally bad.
