Reject modernity they say. First gMod idiot box came out 15 years ago. Nyan cat is from 2011. Gmod shitposting has been around since the game released.

funny, I was thinking the other day why Lemmy very actively uses very old memes, especially Saddam Hussein and
:.|:;then I remembered that this is mostly people who ran away from reddit after the nth overreach, looking fondly back to the pre-enshittification era. makes sense they’re bringing back and referencing old memes too.Sabata11792@ani.social 6 months ago
We don’t have a big corporation forcing us to suck every dick in the advertising industry. Old/edgy memes, porn, over the top arguments about politics, and unhinged content are the defenses against advertisers. Make it high risk and low profit and that keeps them from getting entrenched and ensharting.
Be a brand risk or be sold to the brand. The reason 4chan remains “pure” is because they do the online equivalent of firing a gun out the window to lower property.
pyre@lemmy.world 6 months ago
nah I don’t think it’s that calculated. there’s nothing about loss that has anything to do with advertisers.
also 4chan is a cesspool of nazis. doesn’t really work as a parallel.

I’m kind of proud of kids using new tech to meme.
Flash era was still pretty tits tho.

If gmod counts as “new”.
ATDA@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Oh is that what they’re using?
Score two for the flash era.

Trust me, ignorance can be a blessing sometimes.

If you’ve gone this long without knowing, you are probably better off staying that way.

How is a gmod shitpost anything but a return to tradition?
BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Please go stand by your stairs.
I wish that had an accurate view count, and upload date. But it’s another pre-YouTube classic, and I’d rather link the upload to the creator’s rather than the first re-upload somebody did.

Now I want to see an animated series about nyan-cats turn others into other nyan-cats, then a great war between nyan-cats and advice animal characters breaks out.
