Rawdogging

Tom Gara @tomgara This is great. Also IMO the Zynternet is reshaping norms beyond its own borders, ie internet culture type people doing trendpieces on "rawdogging" flights etc Matthew Zeitlin @MattZeitlin ⚫ Jun 28 Max Read theorizes the Zynternet But Hawk Tuah's broad success as a meme is less about its own intrinsic qualities than about the increasing size and cultural power of something I'm going to call the Zynternet. Over the last ten years or so, a broad community of fratty, horndog, boorishly provocative 20- and sometimes (embarrassingly) 30-somethings--mostly but by no means entirely male--has emerged to form a newly prominent online subculture. This network is adjacent to the "sports internet” of 40something dads and the "hustle internet" of Miami crypto b------- and the "reactionary internet" of trad influencers, but is its own distinct community with its own distinct cultural referents--college sports, gambling, light domestic beers, Zyn nicotine pouches--and influential personalities and media outlets, among them Dave Portnoy, Pat McAfee, Antonio Brown, and Call Her Daddy, in addition to dozens of minor podcasters and hey-fellow-kids content creators who nearly all work for sports-betting concerns. 3:28 PM Jun 28, 2024 7,808 Views 5 271 27 Σ 99 3 ↑
