Hogan has always been a hog. His lawsuit against Gawker actually considerably dented the online left, particularly harming feminists and I would argue that it gave way to the success of the red pill movement followed by gamergate. Had Gawker in its previous incarnation as a fucking powerhouse of edgy doxxing and investigative journalism continued to exist I am certain it would have significantly blunted the effects of these things that followed.

Fuck Hogan and fuck him for what he did to Gawker. https://archive.is/RaUC3

Wasn't Gawker just celebrity gossip? If they were around today they'd probably just harass trans people or something. All the other outlets from that era like Vice and HuffPo are shitty.

Taking down Gawker was a Peter Thiel project lol we do not want to support it or say it was good actually.
