A nostalgic look back at when the Internet still felt joyful

It's CNN selectively reporting the facts because most of the MSM now looks at everything through a culture war lens. Plenty of other lenses to pick from.

A large reason old internet was so fun is that nobody gave a damn about this identity nonsense, we were too busy playing Quake 2 with ninja ropes.

What happens more often, MSM doing culture war gymnastics? Or people accusing MSM of culture war gymnastics (an accusation which is, itself, culture war gymnastics)?

Well probably the latter since there's a lot more people who don't work for MSM then do?
