Oh, if y'all don't like Sneer Club [0], I can't wait to hear what y'all think about Tech Takes [1].
A lot of folks seem to misunderstand why these curations exist. The main goal seems to be to document the hateful and bigoted beliefs of folks who frequent certain influential forums (LW, HN, Twitter), not to dox or raid them. Merely documenting racist utterances is enough to draw complaints.

- apsec112 6y agoI think when someone posts over 3,600 comments on a forum that calls itself "Sneer Club" - that would be over twenty comments a week, every week, for three years - we should question who is really being "hateful". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRBsaJPkt2Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRBsaJPkt2Q
