"fag" is a homophobic slur that was actually even more hurtful to use back in the early 2000s when LGBT people were a lot less accepted by society than today. That said your Dad is technically correct and it was a "term of endearment" among homophobes on 4chan which was largely comprised of straight white men in college had/has a self-deprecating sense of humor.

"Fag" is a homophobic slur and "shoop da woop" is a blackface meme and yes it was all very normal 4chan.

/r/conservative is not comprised of real conservative people, it only exists to expose "normie" redditors to MAGA propoganda while giving the MAGA movement the pretense of legitimacy.

"Shoop da woop" was a popular 4chan meme dating to at least 2006. Also the whole "newfag", "oldfag" etc thing has been going on since forever.

Yeah I'll concede that Satoshi almost certainly had unrealized but aspirational goals for the tech, but speaking personally as far back as I can remember, crypto's primary function was a speculative asset.

Eh, cryptocurrency was never supposed to solve any problem, it was a proof of concept that pariah states realized could enable them to avoid US sanctions. The "it's more secure than banks" talking points were conceived after the fact by the grifters.
