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

[REGENDarySumanai]

Meanwhile JewWario was a rapist, they knew it, and covered it up for him. His suicide was a huge gift to them, and it's just as well he didn't support GG because the last thing they needed was a rapist on their side.

Which makes it hilarious because their side had a bunch of shady fuckers, such as Laurelai, Nyberg, and others.

The dude is the fucking Vidya version of a religious fundamentalist and I can never shake the feeling that he'd say or do anything to anyone as long as the Prophet Mohammed LINDSAAAAAAAY demanded it.

If this were a Shin Megami Tensei game, I could easily see this asshole being a diehard YHVH fanboy and firmly on the Law side, as the extremist Law faction members are usually hypocritical tyrants who believe no evil can be done to those they deem enemies and that their version of Order is so righteous no method of imposing it can be deemed at fault because the the cause is that just in their mind.

When looking at his behavior, one can never shake that if Olson were less cowardly, he'd be capable of some truly terrifying shit, and with the full support of his own conscience. The dude is the fucking Vidya version of a religious fundamentalist and I can never shake the feeling that he'd say or do anything to anyone as long as the Prophet Mohammed LINDSAAAAAAAY demanded it.

A little less mental illness and Dan could honestly be a major success story. He has the work ethic and the drive, he just has to stop focusing his eyes on stupid shit that isn't productive or important.

Jesus H. Christ, Gamergate is the Kevin Bacon of political discussion. Almost every political discussion involving Millennials is always somehow connected to Gamergate ...

But anywho! Comparing internet harassment to actual terrorism ... What.

-A Muslim shooting up a gay night club
-Two Muslims shooting up San Bernardino
-Women getting acid thrown on their faces by Muslims in London

All of this shit to these people= not terrorism (and we're bigots if we think so!). Shitposting on the internet about feminism= TERRORISM!

I don't know why I'm surprised. Clearly my expectations haven't quite hit rock bottom.

It's the side-effect of having a damaged amygdala: you can't accurately determine what is and is not a real threat.

He already has a shocking amount of "credibility" for one of those guys, considering he's not terribly good at his film videos or video essays. He has something that's gotten him this far, and it sure as shit isn't a solid product.

It ain't the appearance and mannerisms of the village pervert either.

My very first encounter with Dan was his video on GG in which, with no evidence provided, he declared that the hashtag (and those supporting it) were guilty of terrorism:

If you've never seen this fucking thing (or at least one of the videos breaking down its idiocy), I cannot recommend you do so enough, for a few reasons. It not only perfectly encapsulates why he's a lolcow (unironically arguing that anyone who dares question his position or ask for evidence is committing a willful act of harassment), but it sets the stage for why, in my opinion, Dan is a fucking sociopath.

One really nice thing covering the Autism Holy War the way we did gives us if the benefit of perspective. Five years after it began and Four years after it ended, we have a good view of all the pieces, where they were on the board, and how the board was set up and fits together. We have a good idea of why things happened, and while we're never going to know the full details of everything, we know enough now to draw some reasonable conclusions from all this, so now, let's travel back in time to October 21st, 2014, when Danny boy first uploaded this fucking thing.

What the casual onlooker wouldn't know - but one would knowing all the details - is that Dan Olson and the rest of Team Nostalgia Chick were in Zoe Quinn's corner since before the scandal even broke. The nanosecond the Zoe Post dropped, Quinn tapped every single resource she had to get it shut the fuck down - Reddit mods, 4chan janitors, and more - Quinn used all of them to try to save her own ass. And because she was a long-time IRL friend of much of Silverstring Media's staff and a personal acquaintance of Feminist Frequency's heads, she had ridiculously long reach, and was quick to use the same "I'm so harassed!" defense Anita did.

However, a curious thing happened; turns out when you try to ban an entire topic to the point you are pushing the dump button on hundreds of pages of 4chan boards and mass-deleting thousands of posts on Reddit, that shit tends to get noticed. And so it was on Channel Awesome. Unfortunately for the denizens of this website, Lindsay Ellis and her army of psychopaths were not about to allow actual discussion of the scandal to take place. They had absolutely no fucking shame about it, either, going so far as to exploit the death of JewWario for their own ends:

View attachment 623469
Todd put this up less than three days before Dan's Video went up. Certainly makes this a hell of a lot more disturbing, doesn't it?

As was recorded by Count Jackula, Kyle and Dan proceeded to basically demand everyone on the entire website submit to purity tests and publicly condemn Gamergate, arguing that anyone who wasn't on-board with said condemnation was guilty of condoning harassment of women. Ellis and Todd were little better. If you ever wondered why the fuck Angry Joe's attempt at discussing GG was a rambling fucking mess and left out so many details, it's because Team Nostalgia chick was actively trying to shut down any discussion of the scandal, forcing a giant rift through Channel Awesome and forcing most of the content creators to take sides, with really only Larry Bundy, Jackula, and a handful of others having the balls to tell Dan and Kyle to go fuck themselves. Olson would be such a noisome sperg about GG that even Mike Michaud had a rare outbreak of common sense and wound up firing his ass.

We can tell that Jackula was telling the truth about this because of how many CA creators that by all accounts, had no dog in this fight, were suddenly all in against GG, even when staying the fuck away from that conflict would have been a perfectly acceptable stance. We also know it's true because it's fucking exactly what Bob Chipman tried to do on the Escapist with Jim Sterling. We also know it was true because Diamanda Hagan shows up in the comments of Jackula's vid to apologize, and establishes yes, this shit fucking happened.

While all this shit was going down, Dan was in touch with both members of what would become CON (including Quinn) and the other members of Ellis' little ship of spergs, as evidenced by both their Twitter feeds and the fact that less than two months later they would show up repeatedly in the CON Log Leaks and Trello Log Leaks further conducting operations against GG and attempting to find ways to attack what they viewed as "big" GG targets. And while Dan would later get caught in his infamous attempt to plant CP on 8chan with Laurelai, it's his video in question here that we must now come back to.

Knowing all of the above paints Dan's video here in an entirely new light. This was not an act of someone who was simply putting out a puff-piece on behalf of his buddies and calling it a day. Dan was doing this deliberately and maliciously as part of his ongoing campaign to push Channel Awesome into opposing GG. Granted, part of this was already visible, considering our own @LordKaT shows up as one of the many people Olson flat-out accuses of being responsible for GG fucking happening in the first place in his fucking video, but it's nice to have some collaborating evidence behind this. Dan's attempt to stablish an entire group as guilty of all the offenses of a tiny minority of it is an ongoing theme with him (while covering up for a fucking self-admitted pedophile in srhbutts, of course). Several of the incidents Olson brings up he flat-out knows are lies, or the work of third-party trolls; Operation FalseFag II being particularly notable because that was a Brianna Wu self-flag.

When looking at his behavior, one can never shake that if Olson were less cowardly, he'd be capable of some truly terrifying shit, and with the full support of his own conscience. The dude is the fucking Vidya version of a religious fundamentalist and I can never shake the feeling that he'd say or do anything to anyone as long as the Prophet Mohammed LINDSAAAAAAAY demanded it.

Fuck every single person you mentioned in this post.

Well he's a part of several cliques and he's part of a niche market for smurt people who want to hear how smurt they are. But don't like Sargons Smurt idea's

"We're very smurt because we tell you what you want to hear if you're left wing. I mean it's not like you need to read Das Kapital right?"

It should be fucking illegal to have that many lolcows in one snapshot.
Especially with how many are fucking troons.

Gotcha covered, fam:

From left to right:

1. William Nicholas Parrott, AKA Natalie Wynn Parrott, AKA Contrapoints, a psychotic social justice-type who screams about terfs, pushes troon ideology, and basically exists so losers like Fire can fap themselves raw over him.

2. Neonfiona, who is Riley Dennis' girlfriend. Has a fraction of the Youtube audience; mostly makes more LGBT videos supporting Riley's points that if you don't love girldick you're not a FOR REALZ lezzybean. I swear to fucking christ I thought she was Rachel Tietz for like 5 minutes. No joke.

3. Lindsay M. Amer, the woman behind "Queer Kids Stuff," whose entire schtick can be boiled down to "Let us groom your kids!"

4. Harry Brewis, AKA HBomberguy, former Goon and rape apologist who now pens himself as a contrarian intellectual and somehow makes Steve Bonnell the Second look fucking subdued by contrast.

5. Kat Lo, an insane researcher from UC Irvine who rather infamously is getting a PHD in being a Reddit Mod. No, I'm not fucking joking. The entirety of her life is centered around being an "advisor" to the unwashed shitheads who subscribe to this ideology. She doesn't have a thread yet, but anyone declaring a need to get a fucking degree in being a fucking Reddit mod deserves one.

6. Dan Olson, our favorite internet psychopath. Has the unique achievement of being so autistic Mike Michaud fired him.

7. Lindsay Ellis, AKA Nostalgia Chick, widely considered patient zero of the ideological infection that wound up, impossibly, fucking Channel Awesome up worse than it was previously. An IRL friend of both Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn, and the one whose goons brought their own little chunk of the culture war to a website that by all accounts, wouldn't have given a shit otherwise and forced everyone involved to take a side.

8. JesuOtaku, one of the most insane nutters Channel Awesome has ever shit out. Someone so infamous for sucking and fucking his way to success that he is, currently, purportedly fucking someone at Google and uses that connection to filter his search results. Jesu's history is a fucking cavalcade of autism and despair that embroils almost every content creator on the site, including Spoony of all people, who once joked about tying Jesu to a radiator and raping him.

9. Riley "if you won't suck my girldick, you're not a real Lesbian" Dennis. Much like Zinnia, Riley is a living embodiment of every single fucking thing I hate about the troon movement. Zero effort to pass, constantly pushing to force children to transition, and more. Take Zinnia, make him slightly less of a failure, and you get Riley, since they're cut from the same cloth.

10. Brittany Simon. An overglorified camwhore whose sole selling point seems to be, Alison Rapp style, being connected to a lot of people while uploading nudes and racy videos of herself. I think she's supposed to be some heretofore unseen species of THOT intended to appeal to grandma fetishists. She sperg-fights like crazy on Twitter, however, and she's tied to almost every branch of the Rat King, so it wouldn't surprise me if she can support a thread. She was a centerpiece in the Betterhelp black hole, too.
