Summary

Project One. Community Memory. The first message board in history. We track how the techno-utopians of the 60s and 70s gave way to otakus, image boards, 90s nihilism and — eventually — the incel & alt-right movements. Dale Beran, author of the book It Came From Something Awful, joins us to explore how activism and technology have been transformed by capitalism & marketing.
