You know how on the last day of school it’s meant to be a skive? Well, our geography teacher put on the movie of Pink Floyd’s The Wall. I’m sure in his head he was all fuck yeah, rage against the machine, but we were 9 year olds. None of us had a clue what it was about except there were hammers and the scary man shaved his eyebrows.

It's no secret that sex is viewed as being very "important" in some circles - men may be seen as "failures" if they're unable to acquire sex, because as you said, it's seen as a goal. And people with that kind of mindset often also tend to view sex as something you do to a woman, not something you do with a woman. It's like some weird powerplay thing, and if they have sex, they have "power" in their minds. It's hard to eloquently explain though. I mean even for women it is seen as an exepcted goal. Mum and Dad freaked out when I told them I was asexual and was planning on getting zero-depth vaginoplasty just because I didn't see the point in paying an extra 10 t-birds just to have a new hole to have sex with. Eventually got them to come around, but it's just hard to convince people that sex isn't the end all be all of relationships, though honeslty the thing that got them to come around was telling them about the sexual abuse. A woman isnt' necesessarily suposed to want sex, but she must still be avaliable for sex.
Also, culturally, sex is all about power, or at least sexual violence. It's why all these chuds say bullshit like doing rape threats against female developers they don't like or saying ones they deem horrific as too ugly to rape (though honestly if they had the chance they'd probably do it anyway). Before I transitioned, I was culturally seen as a faggot more or less and that transgressing of manhood led to sexual violence from three different people that I am aware of. Luckily nothing has happened for 7 years now but the implicit threat is still there in a lot of interactions with men.
whether twotrolls is a masterful troll or a massiv loser, they at least make me lol irl
"before I transitioned, I was culturally seen as a faggot more or less"

The reason why we try and come down on that, and have always tried to, is because if you aren't careful that sort of thing can escalate in dangerous ways. You go from that sort of thing to bringing that user's posts into discord to complain about them with your buddies. Then you keep doing that, even to the point of taking other posts they make out of context in order to have something to complain about. All of a sudden you have a channel in your discord that's dedicated to complaining about a handful of posters, with dozens and dozens of posts as "proof" of how bad they are. Then you're left questioning why everyone else doesn't see what you see and, if you're too far down the rabbithole, you wind up making a 200-page google doc with "receipts" showing just how bad they are and you then try and pass it around so people can see what you do. You're so far gone at this point you don't even realize you're doing the same sort of shit kiwifarms does on a regular basis, that the behavior is really not all that different from the worst of the worst internet dwellers.
Shit, maybe they are an asshole, but the only place to escalate from that sort of thing is doxxing them. At that point you've crossed a line that pretty much everyone agrees is way too far.
My point is, people need to be able to have a discussion with each other without going into personal attacks. The world is more complicated than "us vs them" even if everyone on social media tells you otherwise. Everyone likes something problematic and we all have different lines we draw in the sand when it comes to this sort of thing. Something I find over the line might be seen as someone else as no big deal and vice versa. Having that discussion is fine so long as it's in good faith and respectful. It's our job to keep people on the right side of that line, to toss the people who are just trolling or those not engaging in good faith.
Reports from you guys can help with that sort of thing, even if we don't warn/ban someone it doesn't mean we can't take the report under advisement or keep an eye out for specific sorts of behaviors in the future. What I'm saying is this: being an asshole gets you nowhere, it might feel good in the moment but it generally has repercussions long-term. If you think someone is doing something wrong then tell us. Hit the report button, tell us what's up, and then let it pass like a bad dream. Hyperfocusing on people you dislike is no way to live your life, you'll just make yourself miserable doing that.

As much as they'd deny it, they want to be mad just as much and as often as the "chuds" they constantly talk about. They are all the same. They...
...constantly mad about something
...always looking for "hidden" enemies hiding in their midst
...always on the lookout for new rage bait to talk about
...loves to sic mobs on people to cancel them/ruin their life
...have a cult-like obsession that only their political views are possibly right
...dream of violently taking out the other side
...are absolute perverts behind the scenes
...are quick to throw out science the second they feel it goes against their dogma
