Yes, it’s very bizarre. Iirc it started as a censorship free place because Mike Matei used to mod the AVGN subreddit and he didn’t take lightly to criticism. Mike used to be the real life Angry Gamer (he was the one who owned the games, consoles).
While it started with valid criticism, specially towards Mike:
CW: Genitals
Mike posted a picture of his dick on the AVGN subreddit because there was a joke around he had a big dick. And then there was a second controversy because was actually smaller than in the photo.
.
And because Mike used to drawn and write a racist comic (but that was like during the 2000’s).
Then after James and Mike kicked out Bootsy, because Bootsy said the N word, the subreddit came a garbage place where they decide to attack James while using slurs and other shit. They are now angry that James has a receding hairline.
Maybe I’m misremembering things, I know someone said the N-word, but it wasn’t James (I think he’s a lib guy who voted for Hillary), I think it was one of the new guys. I believe Bootsy left mainly because he had a fight with Mike and because he didn’t agree with the amount James was paying him. I think James only paid him for some things, like editing, but didn’t pay for other things, like the music Bootsy did for Board James. The same thing happened with Kyle, but I believe Kyle left mainly because he has a family and works in real estate.

I knew Bootsy got kicked out and they were mad about it, but this is the first time I’m hearing he daid the N word. Wow makes sense why he’s gone now.

Oh okay. That’s more what i remember hearing before about Bootsy leaving that it was mainly a money issue and/or a falling out with Mike
