"are all eggs" what does that even mean
...well, that's fucking stupid, on several levels.Egg or 'Eggs' (as he puts it):
A word used for a tranny before they transitioned that explains them before pre-transition.
So he's basically calling us un-transitioned trannies. Lmao.
Kiwi Farms girls are crazy. Can speak from experience.

You seem cranky. Did your dog tell you she had a headache last night?lol. only in your obsessed dreams, skank. this dump rarely gets more than five minutes of my time and doesn't even get visited every day.
That anti-criticism post was literally made by someone full of fucking shit, you can check their blog for one second to see, alexxdz, made that blog in response towards badcharacterdesigns, a very nice critical person who is hated by antisjws for criticizing anime, hense why that post they used the codeword "righteous", the perspective of that post is against criticism and it's people's active job and not a burden at all like they're projecting, rationality is how a lot works, you need to know.
(readmore due to The Discourse)
See, while I don’t agree with certain aspects of the post’s phrasing (mostly the “righteous” and “moral” stuff), that post pretty much sums up my thoughts on a certain subset of Internet culture - blogs and pages that focus around mocking people, usually kids, teenagers or the mentally ill, for being themselves. We all said or did things on the Internet when we were younger that could be considered “cringeworthy” now; it’s a natural part of our social development in the Internet age. So when you have places like the-cringe-channel and Kiwifarms that are basically grown-ass adults mocking kids for being kids, it all feels extremely petty and insecure. And a lot of those communities, as they go on, become increasingly insular and circlejerk-y, taking an “us vs. them” mentality that fractures what used to be a mutual interest (case in point: look at the carnage when someone uses “tumblr vernacular” on, say, Kiwifarms). It’s not healthy for anyone involved - these people, mostly grown-ass adults, start out by harassing people who did nothing to them, and ultimately build themselves into circlejerks where every post must be treated with suspicion for fear of being an “other.”
(And before people say that places like the-cringe-channel merely document things rather than harassing people, that’s bullshit and we all know it - they know that a portion of their viewers will try to harass those featured on the blog in the hopes of getting some epic topkek reactions or whatever, yet they make no effort whatsoever to prevent this. Speaking of which, I wonder if they’ll screencap this post and put it on their blog as “lol so buttmad.”)
Blogs like badcharacterdesign, on the other hand, aren’t targeting kids, they’re targeting commercial products - movies, TV shows, what have you. Illumination doesn’t give a shit if some Tumblr blog points out how wonky the designs in Secret Life of Pets are, because they’re the ones who’ve made $875 million dollars off of it already. So jokes at their expense are punching up, not down. The fact that “cringe culture” so often revolves around punching down rather than up is what bugs me about it. Mocking an anime studio and mocking some kid’s fanfiction are completely different ballparks.
As for the demonizing criticism aspect, there’s a difference between criticism and mockery. Regardless of how cynical and jokey they may be in tone, criticisms of the modern late-night anime industry stem from a desire to see more diverse and interesting content from a medium that has a huge amount of potential. Jokes about Ubisoft shitting out another bug-laden Assassin’s Creed stem from the wish for the games to be engaging and technically sound. Posting some dude’s fanart on a blog about “bad art” or “cringe” or whatever isn’t rooted in a desire to see them improve, it’s rooted in a desire to laugh at them. Criticism is healthy, even if it may be unpleasant to hear, but publicly broadcasting a random person’s work under the banner of “LOOK HOW BAD/CRINGEWORTHY THIS IS” isn’t criticism, it’s a malicious joke at best and outright bullying at worst.
Damn. I didn't know we stalked everyone. That sounds exhausting.
