I believe the correct term is "proxy war"
Dev responding to comments with the same "you were mind raped, get offline" type response is so hilariously retarded. My man you are writing out the same insult over and over in twitter comments like it means anything, take your own advice lmao
For a quy who is so terminally online as Dev, he doesn't take a lot of time out to come up with a response.
He is platonic ideal of terminally online spergs
Vee spent like ten years as Sargon's dog and still likes him. Sargon did stop being shitty tbf. Dev managed to completely alienate him in one DnD campaign to the point he regularly posts rants about him.
I mean, the argument is there. But owning a home isn't about pure returns. It's about owning something you take care of, build onto, and give touches of your own. It's a place to build memories with others that can't be so easily taken from you from some landlord. It also depends highly on what exactly he is proposing. To rent the home I have a mortgage on, would be likely 1500-2000k a month (based on the local prices), when my mortgage is half that at a bad rate. I also live alone, which in renting, is just not feasible in most places without it being a significant portion of your income. (i.e. upwards of 1/3 to 1/2 your income in some areas)
Yeah he moved like three times since covid.
Yeah, homeownership is about planting roots, which entails giving a shit about the kinds of people you live around. Being an atomized renter who is quick to abandon one place for another at the earliest convenience means you have no incentive to see a community thrive long term.
My timeline might be off, but I'm going to put the start of the spiral around the 2020 US Presidential election. From what I remember, that's when Dev cut ties with Scrump because Scrump said some gamer words on stream and got Dev banned/demonetized for a bit, so I would pin that as when Dev stopped actually trying to interact with or understand the "right" beyond his interactions with Sargon or Arch. Couple that with J6 a few months later and Dev's trajectory towards "le ebil Republikkans" was cemented, accuracy be damned.
Fucking Christ...I don't even understand Dev's message. What the fuck does it have to do with what Rock Solid said?
I think he became verbally outspoken around 2020, but I think he REALLY went off the rails around 23-24 or so. Hell, you can probably see it in this thread itself...till about 2023 or so, Dev's thread really didn't have much traction. From 2020 to 2023, dude had something like 30 pages or so. But around mid-23, it really kicked off and you'd increasingly get "Dev, what the fuck are you saying? Are you fucking retarded?" sorta reactions almost everyday.
I can't believe Dev stop talking to a gay man over a few dollars. How homophobic.
No, child, it is not retarded.
An no, child, he is not the platonic ideal of terminally online spergs. That would be Patrick S. Tomlinson, child. This is where you killed yourself. Bang bang.
