Missionality

I'm not sure why we should care about this particular bit of internet drama.Bob^{"Life is short and (insert adjective)"} 14:53, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

The drama and ego she has is one thing, but her cultish following and crank magnetism seems to be worth covering. Blakegripling ph (talk) 19:52, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

Personally, I think she's relevant enough. GeeJayK^{Where all evil dwells} _{Where every lie is true} 20:13, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

Missionality, not notability. Vee^Meow? 22:52, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

She meets 2, 3 & 4 as far as I'm concerned. Her "philosophy" leans towards crackpottery and fundamentalism, her medium of choice is through video game piracy which is unique in that we don't usually see warez groups espouse their ideas like that, apart from Tony Krvaric of Fairlight who later emigrated to the States and went full batshit as a Republican.

Video

I'm surprised someone is bothering to make this article but do what you will. For your interest, this video has some rare screenshots from her old chats: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5R04gEiHd4 Chillpilled (talk) 04:22, 25 February 2023 (UTC)

The video also makes mention of her supposed spirituality so I guess it makes her even more of a crank magnet then? Blakegripling ph (talk) 07:38, 25 February 2023 (UTC)

There are rumors about her being Russian. If these are true, not surprised.

I've always viewed Russians as grumpy conservatives.

EDIT: Maybe because of their politics, maybe because I'm Westernized.ASerb (talk) 20:30, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

rephrase fitgirl mention

Hey if you want to assume fitgirl is a woman that's fine and if you want to say fitgirl has kept gender a secret that's also fine but the construction "female (?)" smells really really bad in an article about a virulent transphobe and someone she's harassed. I'm sure there's a better way to put it. --2600:387:6:80F:0:0:0:A0 (talk) 20:47, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

I removed the construction in mention. I also looked to see if there were any other assumptions of fitgirl's gender, referring to them in the third person and such, but I couldn't find any. Carthage (talk) 21:31, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
