The terms are used to convey a group that would buy shit. They are not anthropology terms. They are marketing terminology used to sell you shit. I'm sure today's students like to use them in their anthropology papers though
the anthropology term is Age Cohort.

idk, incels are very much millennial's problem too.
trilby hat version was a major early brand.

Being started by a millennial means nothing to the discussion.
Don't blame me; I'm not the one who brought it up.
Were millennials the users who popularized it?
Yes.
Source on the last part, please.

I don't think millennials are responsible for 4chan. That shit was a cesspool while most of them were in elementary school.
Also pretty sure the 4chan to Nazi speedrun was a state run psyop. 4chan is by far the easiest social media to manipulate. You don't have to pretend to have a user history.

Calling out Millennials for Fascism when Gen Z helped elect Trump 2.0 is just fucking rich.

Na, but Millenials used it in their (pre-)teens seeing some fucked-up shit (and strangely most of us are still fine)

Kids probably got annoyed hearing how they do fucked up shit online and are trying to fire back

I think it is so funny that people seem to forget that Gen X set the stage for internet culture when most millennials were teens and preteens.
Absolutely love that millennials are once again taking all the blame for actions that the whiny generation also partook in and indeed cultivated with glee before behavioral regulations online became a thing. When that happened, millennials were also being blamed for being too soft.

It goes way further back than that: https://cs.stanford.edu/people/eroberts/cs181/projects/controlling-the-virtual-world/history/rape.html
I used to frequent LambdaMOO. Things weren't all that different back then than they are now.

You're forgetting a lot of the original imageboards (eg. Blueboard) and calling them "hate and revenge porn subreddits" is a gross oversimplification...... eg. r/jailbait is NOT a simple revenge porn subreddit! It was a straight up you know what subreddit! It's a shame to see Redditors defend Michael Brutsch (u/violentacrez A.K.A VA A.K.A "Pimp of Reddit") as a "troll" even till this day! Apart from this, there were also a lot of disturbing subreddits during the mid '10s like r/beatingtrannies, r/beatingcripples, r/strugglefuck, r/askarapist to name the few.
Yikes, what a terrible day to know how to read

They meant that young men breaking away from the rest of their cohort in a much more significant manner than the last couple generations helped tip things in his favor.
It was a departure from the norm

Don’t forget r/picsofdeadkids and r/beautifulcorpses
R/rape was a place for rape porn for the longest time. Posting to Reddit for advice coping with sexual assault is 100% a bad idea, as you will mostly get DM’s and chat requests from people who want to get off to your trauma. I believe the moderators of those “support” communities also get off on it too.
There are still currently beastiality subreddits and r/guro. The beastiality subreddits post simulated images/hentai, but the discussions include advice on how to participate.
People tried to defend r/jailbait by saying it was girls close to 18. (Uh akshually it’s ephebophilia
) It was not. It was mostly 13-14 year olds or younger. Actual pornographic images weren’t posted there, but it was clear that the admin team and others were running trading rings.Didn’t Reddit even ban Gawker links for a while for doxxing Micheal Brutsch? Redditors always fell over themselves to defend all of this shit as “free speech.” R/ShitRedditSays was considered worse than any of these subreddits.
