Yes, there were multiple spats of right-wing nazi trolls brigading the /c/ with propaganda spam from multiple alts. I have a feeling it was all one guy who got mad though, at most 2 or 3, because every new instance "alt" had the same memes (focusing on calling trans people pedos) and the same typing and title style. Plus, it initially started with one asshat who had alts with identical usernames spread out across 20+ instances- so it'd make sense he wisened up and kept making alts with new usernames.

Fuckin' no-lifers gotta ruin it for everyone else man.

Everything.

This will sound mega dumb.

But

I like to think they are this messed up because of some unknown dumb thing. My current take is micro plastics. Microplastics cause them to go off the deep end. Fix that, we fix them too.

It probably isn't, but, it's a nice distraction.

I mean, you joke, but environmental pollution (lead) levels and certain nutritional deficits have a scientifically measurable effect on mental health disorder rates and general intelligence.

The use of leaded gasoline put a huge amount of environmental lead into our living spaces and breathing air. When it was completely phased out in the 1970's and environmental exposure dropped, murder rates dropped by the 1990s in what's known as the lead-crime hypothesis, where childhood exposure to lead of any level alters development negatively.
