    He joined very early. The mainstay of the communities was conservatives ostracised from social media. It wasn’t until the progressives started fleeing Twitter and Reddit that the support-each-other communities would blossom. I went back when I got here and found his treatment and why he left. It was just a bunch of juvenile fuckwads saying, " Shut up, Westley," to everything he wrote. He gave it a solid run, tried to take some of it in jest; in the end, he just wasn’t welcome at the time.

        no no, you were entirely accurate. I just came back for context. I had hoped that he maybe just took something the wrong way; he can be quite sensitive at times, so I hunted down the transgressions and found they were awful to him.
