    The glasses picked up an alt-right connotation during gamergate, with a lot of them using it in their profile pictures. Marble statues of course being a symbol that twitter fascists use due to its ties to synthwave (fashwave) and just your general “back when things were better” stuff.

    I agree that wikia is a good target but i’m not watching a video from a guy with two fashy hard-tells as their profile picture.

      Well, TIL. Thanks for explaining, although this dude seems to be obsessed with a game (Hollow knight: Silksong) with a female lead. So, kinda mixed messages here ⁠¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)_/ ⁠¯⁠

        Yeah it always does seem weird how seemingly normal people get involved in that kind of shit.
