I liked UlyssesT but he could be a bit grating and also his criticisms of my favorite media slid off me like water off a duck's back, I don't care that Cyberpunk doesn't let me start a revolution among a nearly enslaved populace for whom class consciousness is basically illegal given how they treat homeless sewer-dwellers and people trying to organize a strike, I can deflect bullets with a katana and shoot people through 18 inches of concrete with a handheld railgun

Lots of people seem super salty about him though

He didn't like the treatbrained, and the treatbrained didn't like him.

after reading this thread and his final post i have developed a shitty headcanon right,

what if UlyssesT was some married guy "working" a higher 6 figure bullshit office job in silicon valley, one of those special bullshit jobs where he could do whatever the fuck he wanted on the internet all day?

so every day, he vented his profound frustrations at his coworkers and life situation (techbros, gamers, etc.) on this site for 7 hours after touching spreadsheets for ~1 hour, slowly loosing touch with any reality beyond silicon valley and the torment nexus that is the american media environment, becoming more of a paranoid hyperaggressive egomaniac as time went on

then, expecting a child with his wife, he decided "fuck this stupid shit, im trapped in a digital samsara doomed to repeat an endless cycle of debatebroism, im moving out to california in the middle of nowhere"

and he did just that using his savings from the bullshit job, leaving his techbro bullshit job to take up a farmers life allowed him to stop posting

*for the sake of his partner i hope he isnt as shitty in real life as he is online

i remember getting into an hour-long discussion with him that turned into an actual argument. it started with him calling Barry copaganda and me asking him if he had ever seen it

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

He's been gone for so long that I think I thought I was still cis when he left

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

I liked his weird ass posting emilie-shrug

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago

even aside from him being a huge asshole it seems like its usually a bad thing for a sites culture when one person dominates it as much as he did

leftist theory: capitalism has negative effects on many aspects of human culture such as media and the arts

ulyssesT: points out specific ways in which this manifests

hexbear: omg ur so abusive stfu and just let me slurp up my treats in peace

It took me forever to realize that when he said "gambo" he was talking about game of thrones.
