I'm not sure there's another term for "sold well" that doesn't also imply people liked it.

Alternatively they could just be calling them plebeian.

I'm not right wing, but I'm in a few more "free speech" nerd groups where there's a decent number of right wingers, I've never heard of either of those, so I can't really comment about the specific examples.

With any of these thing's I don't think it's a homogenous group though, you can usually separate them into certain subgroups:

  • People that are really into a setting and will complain about any minor detail being changed. They'll complain about a character's hair or nail polish colour being changed just as much as their skin colour. IMO these are usually the majority.
  • Actual racists. Not much more to say here.
  • People who will complain about anything. They changed something? it's ruined; they kept something the same? it's ruined.
  • Grifters. Just wants to get money and attention from youtube, will latch on to any criticism of anything if they think an hour long rant video about how "woke ruined x" will get them views. The minority, but by far the loudest. Often overlaps with 2 and 3.

So out of those, 2, 4 and sometimes 3 will still be complaining about new settings that are perceived as "woke".

ignoring illegal immigration and the issues caused by it

They don't ignore it, they encourage it to help divide the people, Engels wrote how the bourgeoisie do this in The Condition of the Working Class in England, so it's been going on since 1845 at least.

How do you connect it to a circuit without an anode?

Ghost's architecture still seems weird to me. It lacks a plugin system so this (and anything else you would normally want as a plugin) has to be an entirely separate server that requests are proxied to by nginx.

I guess they have to do something with all the crashed planes.

Interesting, I know they used to sell special thin airmail paper for international letters, so it makes sense.

It sure was an interesting coincidence that idpol became so rampant right after the whole occupy movement.

I once heard an American saying, "God created men, but Sam Colt made them equal", so perhaps the comparison to a gun isn't that incorrect?
