A tragic and fascinating man. The internet treated him as something of a spectacle, if not an outright meme. I'm not sure if it helped him in any way. I hope that at least some of the attention he got online brought him genuine happiness.
- fsmv 2mo agoI think there were some who really cared but I also think a lot of the 4chan types that found him egged him on and tried to trigger his schizophrenia because they treated it like it was all a big joke. It really is tragic. He deserved better. RIP King Terry https://youtu.be/Xb9GBLPCeVw https://youtu.be/Xb9GBLPCeVw
- spidercat 1mo agoAbsolutely. A lot of the 4chan types thought he was "based", less due to any of his actual talents, and more due to his outbursts and language choices (e.g. his "glow-in-the-dark" comments). It was a spectacle more than anything. He was just a lolcow to them. He deserved so much better from society.
