Why are gossip communities so toxic?

Sites like ONTD, celebitchy, r/fauxmoi/deuxmoi are full of the most miserable losers you will ever come across. Why is this?

The reality is most people are unhappy and need an outlet to bitch about things anonymously behind their keyboard. It's why this site is still going almost thirty years later.

Celebitchy posters are the craziest. A few years ago they kissed the ground that Brandi Melville walked on. They talked about her as if she was some beautiful and pristine queen rather than a reality show skank. It was hilarious.

Because humanity is toxic

by Anonymousreply 6February 13, 2023 2:57 PM

Not sure about the other sites - but I’ve noticed deux moi and faux moi are 95% women intensely fixated on celebrities. And it’s not in a light way, writing cunty but funny comments - it’s extremely serious and mostly earnest. Like in the Rihanna Super Bowl thread they were all going off about how dangerous it is to have pregnancies so close to each other and how they hated her performance but they hope her pregnancy is healthy and safe. A lot of judgmental mom fraus running their mouths about waiting at least 18 months for another pregnancy.

Say what you will about DL, but we would never fixate on the safety of Rihanna’s unborn child.

What do you want, nothing but puppies and rainbows blowing smoke up celebrities' asses? That's what People magazine and Entertainment Tonight are for.

I would imagine those gossip sites, and even DL, are still pretty tame compared to the real cesspits of the internet like Kiwi Farms, 4Chan, etc. I used to read ONTD back in the 2000s...it wasn't that bad. SJWs took over and it started to suck, then I found DL, and never went back.

OP, you're gonna get mad about this probably, but your spelling indicates you're British, and I can't think of a single British poster on here who is not completely irritating. I guess what I'm saying is that I don't ever see British spellings in fun or funny threads, but I see them a lot in posts where someone is screaming at me that I'm basically Hitler because I don't think Meghan Markle, trans, or Biden are destroying the world.

People are in denial about how bad it gets on DL. The difference is that a mod sometimes shows up and deletes things, but that unfortunately just allows more people to stay in denial longer.

DL actually is better because we don't post solely about celebrities.

There are threads on here about physical and mental health, politics, sex, pets, travel, books, etc. ONTD and Deux Moi have none of that. It's fraus obsessing about famous people. Occasionally they commiserate about being moms, but that's about it.

DL is what you make of it. If you want to focus on toxicity, then that's your prerogative. But there are a lot of kind, smart, wise people on here with insight and good words of advice.

I remember back in the 1990s joining an Iron Chef TV show group on Usenet and they were the meanest fucking assholes on the planet.

There was also rec.food.cooking, a large Usenet newsgroup that a lot of DLers were apparently on (though I don't know if they're still here) and it was a bloodbath every damn day. Once a guy got so upset about the size of McDonald's burger patties -- this was before Google so you couldn't just look it up online -- that he started threatening to kill people who wouldn't agree with him that they were 1/6th of a pound. People who had worked at McDonald's said they were 1/8th of a pound and he would not believe it.

No joke, the guy died about two weeks later of a heart attack. He posted with his real name and the obituary was online. Absolute pandemonium, complete chaos, floods of tears.

Gossip communities are humorous. They work for a few laughs and/or head scratchers.

Every now & then, gossip communities do their humanitarian work, by exposing profoundly fucked up people, like a Harvey Weinstein or any other typical, Hollywood predator.

A lot of the commenters on CBitchy and DListed are pretty bad, and if you don't tow the line, the moderator (in the case of CBitchy) kicks you off, or the community (in the case of DListed) just ignore your comments.

I disagree on LSA, that place is hilarious. Sure, they have parts and members that say shit things, but on DL we get people typing outright racist things on EVERY post dealing with a black or brown person. LSA has had me laugh so hard, it hurts. My favorite thread was about the horrors of work potlucks. Another that had me in tears on the train was a thread dragging (meaning calling out) cartoon characters. If you get the humor then you'll understand why that place is hilarious.

They've also shifted in their LGBT stances as demographics have shifted. You'll see homophobes called out.

Now, DL hate LSA because they give a lot of raw takes on their views of white people. I get that it can and sometimes is outright racists. But some of the criticisms has loads of truth. Since DL is primarily full of older white men, I can see how that would cause many in here to have a firing hatred of LSA and its unflinching vocalization of the black experience in white lead world.

Like DL, I try to avoid such topics and you know which threads will lead to that mess. Just like the racism that will be spread in any thread that mentions Harry or Meghan on DL. They don't worship the RF which may be another reason DL hates LSA.

I've heard so much about LSA here, but visited for the first time recently as it came up in a search under Tyler's Tarot. They were all going into what his possible racial background combination might be exactly, where I encountered the term "busted white" which I don't understand.

Speaking of Tyler, his orientation is as much an open secret as the Senator from South Carolina. The LSA gang seem okay with that, some just tired of his drama.

Chris Evans fans on LSA. Idiots who "reap what they sow".

For years they complain about his alleged hook-ups. That he is apparently using instagram as tinder. They call him a manchild and hoe for that all the time.

But not just on LSA, on other social media sites, Evans-fans frown upon rumors where he is described in a slutty way who has numerous hook-ups. Means, women in general seem to hate the fact that older men still can have fun like teenagers.

(Very slut-shamey for the fact that there are so many femimists on LSA btw)

So what does Hollywood do as a response? They create these PR relationships in order to portray these "slutty" men as stable individuals who only have one woman in their life.

So guess what happens... since the announcement of Chris' (alleged) PR relationship, hell broke loose in his dedicated LSA thread(s). They hate her guts (and him now too).

But you can't have it both ways. You want these men tied down, married with children, basically like a doormat but then you are surprised that you get these fake relationships as a response.

How about accepting Chris (and others) as so called "hoes"? Then you wouldn't have to be jealous of PR-broads.

I find that all over Reddit, r54, not just gossip groups, AND the "groupthink" changes from day to day. Sometimes you'll have a perfectly pleasant thread where people are disagreeing politely, then a few days later the exact same topic comes up and suddenly it's flame wars and huge insults. Two or three crazy people on a subreddit about the Idaho murders started posting death threats one day, it was insane. Then the next time the same topic comes up (because Reddit is overflowing with duplicate threads) everyone is normal and polite again.

I think angry people need an outlet which includes bigots etc. People who are more or less content are not as likely to post (they do) but in general do not have an axe to grind. The free floating anger and lies directed at famous people of particular achievement and success often rattles me. Some people are famous for being famous (Kardashians) or truly evil (Madoff, Santos, Putin). But you have posters going after Nancy Pelosi like she’s an international criminal and mixing virulent antisemitism into Streisand bashing. I find women get trashed more than men. Hillary is in a class by herself. In truth these are remarkable women- not perfect but truly remarkable.

It’s anger- free floating- and has little to do with the person being trashed. Such posters “have” to post so they dominate to a degree.

I think there were always a lot of people who had issues with adults dating 18 or 19 year olds, or elderly male celebrities with wives who were 40 years younger than them, but no one really talked about it in the entertainment press. Once gossip mavens started gathering on the internet, they realized that a lot of them agreed about age gap relationships, and the online discussion lead to entertainment news discussion about it.

But like every issue these days, people who are trying to make a name for themselves will exaggerate their anger about it just to get likes and clicks. There aren't any really NORMAL conversations about age gap relationships anymore.

Is Celebitchy on Harry and Meg’s payroll? They are fawning over them like they are being paid to.

Are they toxic, though?

Imagine a tight group of like-minded friends and some troll or hater shows up and tells them they are fucking loser for thinking so-and-so is gay, or they are being called snowflakes for pointing out some poster crosses the line / breaks some message board's rule.

"Know your audience". You can't just enter a room, shit on the floor, and then call the people in the room toxic for being disgusted by you.

Where we be without Deuxmoi’s weekly sighting of Jon Hamm at a bar. Or day pics of her book. I agree, I really most of sightings are from assistants, publicists, etc. This is one page I hope eventually burns out.

[quote]Why are gossip communities so toxic?

Because cunts like you post there, using such terms as "communities" to describe them.

Plus many of your type are stupid enough to read anything but the most butter-and-sugar-laden praise as toxicity, instead of what free, anonymous interplay is, especially on Lounges such as The Data.

Chandra Dasgupta is Kaiser at Celebitchy. She's a huge racist with a giant chip on her shoulder. She's always been jealous of Catherine it seems.

Celebitchy is pure trash! For years they were a Angelina Jolie PR outlet. Kaiser the main moderator was obsessed with Jolie. Bottom of the barrel gossip site.

I love gossip as much as the next bitchy queen, but I cannot imagine getting emotionally involved in the personal life of a celebrity that I will never meet. The obsession that certain types have with Leonardo DiCaprio's parade of girlfriends is disturbing.

Celeb gossip seems to attract single, average looking women who hate on more attractive female celebs. Women are so catty when they’re jealous.

I'm obviously out of the loop because i was on r/fauxmoi last night and didn't realize who ran it was already exposed. I wasn't surprised that it's 2 women. But i do find it sad that they're early 40s and give such juvenile responses on instagram.

Faux moi is the worst. They go wild with rage if you criticize women or Dan Levy. Otherwise they pretty much hate men.

Miserable humorless group.

R128 she called him out but the mass of faux moi fraus are angry and “team Dan.” They refuse to believe he’s anything other than an angel.

Last I checked they were hysterically attacking Joey King for posting some benign Instagram story supporting the protests in Israel. They are so wildly anti-Israel to the point where it’s clearly antisemitism. And if you question anything the faux moi pack says - they all go crazy.

I agree r132 - scary miserable cunts.
