My favorite quote of him that hits me every time I think of it:

"On the internet, it doesn't matter who you are or where you came from. Everyone is the same behind the keyboard."

(2014 Digital Amnesia documentary by VPRO)

Rest in peace, old friend.

He figured it out and got out. More than can be said for some.

>He died in his sleep last month

Title is misleading.

>Wizardchan, a smaller and misogynistic forum for male virgins

I see the media has learned exactly nothing since the days any of this was relevant. Just apply the usual adjectives until consensus is achieved.

There's nothing more credible than sockpuppetting a dead person to renounce anything related, amirite?
