No, I really like reading ”everything except the stuff I like is bad and for children” columns from a condescending boomer chud for 30+ years.

If I ever come across old issues of Pelit in my parents' house or something I'll have to see just how awful their takes and politics are to my adult brain

Honestly, all the really bad takes were on their forum, where they were assumedly free of the shackles of any journalistic pretense xok

That forum was where I found out about 9/11 was happening, though.
