The Great Twitter Meltdown of 2021 - Emulator creator Byuu bullied to death by HateSpeech™ forum, Twitter takes up arms (Still No Death Report)

[Snack Cracker]

I’m sure Ohio sucks so someone pretending to be in Japan instead might not be out of the question, but the pill labels and yen account makes me hesitate on the pretending.
Right now I’m veering towards “still alive but in nipponland”.

It's so funny how Kiwifarms makes the rest of the internet extremely mad when we all just stay on our forum. 4chan's /pol/ was organizing raids and shit for ages. 4chan/8chan /v/ was doing gamergate ops for years, as faggy as that shit was. What does Kiwifarms do? Have you ever seen a kiwifarms poster in the wild? Someone going, "oh yeah, I'm a kiwifarms poster" on the greater internet? No? I've seen Chan guys do it though.

I'm pretty sure at this point the anger just comes from the forum having the audacity to document and point out bad behavior, even if that bad behavior never gets acted on. It was never about punishment, it was about laughs. I was pretty frequently in the Digibro thread and never once did I think I was punishing or was going to punish Digi. In fact, most people were pretty much like "damn it's sad this went this way but it's pretty fucking funny"

Possibly because we dare to uphold to our standards on the internet, unlike literally everyone else.

Its almost like trying to appease these people is a fruitless task or something.

Also something funny i found in its retweets

at the risk of sounding gay, do you have anything to prove that? i'm a faggot who lives in america i don't know shit about nihongo laws, and i sure as fuck can't read moon.

Not in English. I lived in Japan for around 4 years and have dealt with jp police when it comes to suicide twice. (I had 2 co-worker kill themselves at different times) - They absolutely refused to share any information with me (gaijin) and told me it was illegal to share any information with non-family.

I'm slightly different on that i think the non binary types were just "gee i'm not a he man type man and a bit of a bitch so i don't fit the role of man". These people have a view on men weren't adequate examples in their own eyes (and mine) and just made something else to feel special. I don't think they're pretending rather that they're extremely pathetic and retarded.

so it's just gayer sigma male shit

 

[REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!]

Something to clear up: There are now 3 articles on this bullshit which mention the Kiwi Farms by name:

-The Kotaku article, written by "Kotaku Staff" a moniker they use for regular generic content or content they do not want to claim.

-The Gizmodo article, written by Shoshana Wodinsky, a former waitress from Tel Aviv.

-The Vice article, written by Patrick Klepek, a former Kotaku writer.

All 3 of these blogs had their genesis in the same Slack chat, I can absolutely guarantee it.

There are a lot more than three. IGN and PC Gamer come to mind as well.

So errr... Why has our logo changed to Death Note?

 

[Julie Newmar]

The real question is: who's bunking with who when we all get sent to Gitmo as KiwiTerrorists? @Cats and @Taylor Swift's Ghostwrite seem cool enough, but something about @Dyn scares me. We really need to start planning this out now.

I know how to make jailhouse cheesecake

getting siivagunner vibes

IIRC they actually deleted a video once people started commenting 41%'er jokes.

Gizmodo and Kotaku are both affiliates of G/O Media (formerly Gawker), the same shitheads who run Jezebel and the Root.

Yes.

So, with DOS pretty much failed, and without a stiff proof of death for particular individual in question, can we call this whole debacle a Near Death Experience?

Not just the pills themselves, but the variety of pills. I cannot imagine someone being prescribed four different anti-depressants at once. Byuu said something about having tried "every antidepressant in Japan" - if he tried several different courses over three years it's feasible he'd have a stack of unfinished meds from different prescriptions.

Not in English. I lived in Japan for around 4 years and have dealt with jp police when it comes to suicide twice. (I had 2 co-worker kill themselves at different times) - They absolutely refused to share any information with me (gaijin) and told me it was illegal to share any information with non-family.

I guess the only scenario that might be semi plausible is if Hector phoned up pretending to be Byuu's brother or something - the Japanese police would be struggling to get ahold of next of kin if the consulate was closed that evening. Although I think that's still immensely unlikely.

Don't forget Jalopnik, the car website that hates cars and the capitalists who buy them.

 

[Pinochet Was Right]

So, is it Tranny Fluid or Gander Neutral Shift Juice now?

 

[theZcuber]

The tranny stole his name from a character from that. First thing I seen when I searched to find out who this loser was that everyone was talking about on Twitter.

oh cool, that means those vultures will be scouring this thread like hawks to report shit like: 'I murder troons daily.' as if it's fact and not just a joke to us.

so here's my thoughts on you complete and utter hacks that are reading this thread for that reason right now - remember this little gem from a decade and a half ago?

back then when this happened you western game journo smegma might've laughed at lolprah being gloriously out of touch and just believing this crap at face value...but now you've become lolprahs yourself. except even worse - this wasn't us idiots showing up on your message boards to try and gay ops and troll you morons, since that's 4chan levels of stupidity. no - you guys came in here and report this shit as fact or even worse you report whatever your favorite lying sack of a blue twitter checkmark tells you is gospel and report it as such.

enjoy sucking on that pathetically measly, probably shrinking, paycheck while you cope and seethe about Ghost of Tsushima beating TLOU2 or whatever. because the truth is this: you'll never be a real journalist at the Times or Post and get a fuckin' pulitzer, because you can't even meet their fallen standards of integrity, you absolute scum of the Earth.

I didn't consider this. There is a chance he could've done this and they just took it at face value. Keisatsu generally are lazy af and wanna just be done with work. I can see them saying white dead guy? White guy calling? Great I'm done.

[Jordi El Nino Polla]

What is this? Day four? Day three? I dunno.

Has there been any confirmation as to whether this dude is alive or dead? That's all I've wanted to know since this stared and you would think it would be the most important detail to nail down before... well, all of this shit.

Either way, any outlet that has reported on this story and claimed the guy is dead (even if that turns it to be true) have zero credibility if they even had any before this.
