I wish I could tell my 19 year old self that the culture war is mostly being funded by the SPLC and that every celebrity on all sides would eventually become lolcows so it's not worth wasting your time spectating on it.
No. I was never on any movement, but I will admit that I wasted my time watching videos from all sides, and it did affect my performance in college. I was only drawn in because the Internet circles I was in were the ones most affected by it.
@PurpCat I was using HookTube (the YT proxy before invidious) at the time and the featured video section was littered with culture war shit, mostly from the alt-right and anti-SJW side.
It also wasn't limited to just videos. Every community I was a part of or just lurked either had some SJW trying to hijack it or someone spamming threads with links about race-realism.
