This is, by far, the most cohesive thing you can read to understand the Hawk Tuah phenomenon within the fratbro internet culture maxread.substack.com/p/hawk-tuah-...
I literally learned about Hawk Tuah 10 minutes before, from my husband. That was helpful!
That said, if Max Read thinks the Biden administration hasn't done *anything* good since 2022 -- wow! -- then fuck that guy for being the Nate Silver of thinking he knows shit he ain't.
So there's that too.
I keep seeing stuff about Hawk tuah and how LGBTQ are "mad" because she's "stealing their thunder" during pride month, which I think demonstrates a way of thinking I hadn't considered.
Why's everything gotta be a made up culture war lol. I don't speak for the community but I don't think they care?
Things move fast, so wouldn’t bet the house on it but I thought DeChambeau was decidedly unpopular within this culture stemming from his Brooks Koepka rivalry.
i love the word, sports internet isn’t nearly specific enough (e.g. there’s a ton of sports fans that have no idea who Portnoy is), but zynternet actually narrows it down perfectly. and it sits there at the entrance to the right wing funnel.
i kept thinking about bill simmons 'sports guy' and the 'what would tyler durden do' and the 'hot or not' culture from the early 2000s as the Ur to all this
