Left of center? You mean left from totally bonkers actual Fascists....

Rare, but not super rare. You are misremembering the large amount of pamphlets, direct mail and newspaper/magazine ads that fed a propensity for stupid people to try and get rich or circumvent rules. There were no doubt regional differences, but e.g. in the Netherlands there were a few people with large tax trick companies/movements that gained a lot of traction and money before they eventually got stopped by the courts. Talking late 70s/80s. here.

How can a toxic wastedump exclusevely filled with trolls, edgelords and questionable porn go downhill? That place's been as low as possible just about from the start. Can't believe anyone would voluntarily admit to posting there back here in the civilized world.

Kiss. Pretending to be a real band and becoming more of a joke every year after year since the 70s. Still, an impressive new low for them.

I am not proud to say I was an original backer, but luckily only for like 25 bucks.

It became clear after a year or two it was vaporware. even if a product ever comes out it'll not be what I backed originally, which was Privateer TNG. So I stopped following the game, never played any of the tech demo's and just shake my head warily when I see news articles like this. Bernie Madoff is in jail for basically the same thing. How can people still support this travesty.

At least the Taliban have the excuse their holy book is read in its original language. These jokers base themselves on a translation of a translation. Dogma and theocracy are wrong in any version, but if you are spouting ignorant bigotry at least make sure it's what the bronze-age sheepherders really intended...

And if you support Trump, you at the very least are ok with fascists. You can judge a person by the company they keep...

Seeing as teething babies cry a lot, I wonder how painful this process will be.

Of course they do. It's a common and effective propaganda instrument to lessen the effectiveness of the word so people take it less seriously when it's used in the correct context. By underestimating their intelligence and cunning you are actually playing right into their hands.

went insane

Come on, read his statements and actions of the past, say, 5 years. The sanity ship sailed ages ago.
