Big inspiration for the question is the assertion I've seen on Lemmy a few times that this user base is as bad/misogynistic/hateful. But also just curious.

That's kind of surprising. You're the outspoken Catholic, right? How did you rationalize that back then? (Not a callout, I'm aware people change and grow)

    Outspoken monotheist, Muslim persuasion. 🤓 And I wasn't then, lol, that's a more recent development. At the same time, much of the content was just depressed teens being edgy, not necessarily evil or overly malicious. /tv/ was basically all memes! Let's not forget the chans had blue and red boards and blue boards were sfw. Fashion, cooking, technology, and many other boards were pretty "normal".
