Does anyone else read that flag as just saying RUMP?
Just to say that Iām glad to see mention of Second Life in any positive way. Iām an old timer there (almost 10 years) and indeed it is a venerable data space, still alive and well.
As for the shenanigans, thereās no better place than Second Life for this!
Unfortunately there are real life Trump supporters too. Half of them are Donald Trump.
I never really understood why other virtual worlds never got the same traction. All the other big ones are games, not just worlds to inhabit. Well, I suppose thereās Minecraft, which is both. When do we get something like Clineās OASIS?
Iām still waiting for The Metaverse, hopefully I can catch Hiro Protagonist at the black sun and get my ass kicked at virtual swordfightingā¦
As for this dumpster fire; I have great fondness for Second Lifeāsā¦unrulyā¦tendencies(back when it was a fad for companies to have a presence, the various anti-corporate mischief was great fun to watch); but it just doesnāt seem like a great sign when a candidateās supporters are bombarding the opposition with swastikas. Company you keep and all that.
āThe Deliveratorās car has enough potential energy packed into its batteries to fire a pound of bacon into the Asteroid Belt.ā
Diablo mio I love that book!
Yes, and I canāt for the life of me see a swastika there.
Someone should tell the Neo-Nazis that Trumpās own wife said that he isnāt Hitler.
Thatās where youāll lose them. Itās a womanās opinion, not anything important.
Itās possible these are garden-variety SL griefers with no particular political affiliation. Then again, that would make them difficult to distinguish from Trump supporters.
I read āASSHOLEā.
Hunh. Second Life is still a thing? I had figured it dropped into cultural irrelevance alongside anglefire, myspace and Myst.
Canāt say thereās anything here that shifts my opinion, if Iām being honest.
If nothing else, the logo is cleverly designed. So that is something.
Like many things in Second Life, this whole article reads differently if you say
Seven of Bernie Sandersās fans in the venerable virtual world Second Life have established a HQ, āa Roman-themed hangout space in a peaceful meadow, where up to seven Bernie supporters often gather to share news of their favorite candidate,ā but their peace was shattered when four members of 4-chan claiming to be Donald Trump supporters laid siege to the building, firing virtual guns whose rounds exploded into swastika flags at Sanders central.
Numbers just assumed
Youād be surprised. I used to use it quite a bit and had thought the same thing, but a recent peek into Second Life showed that itās still vibrant, busy, and popular with a wide range of people.

You figured wrong. 
Itās a great framework to make MMO games with. Last year I made this multi-player dogfight thingie:
As far as the Trump thing in SL: I canāt tell whether this is the work of Trump supporters or anti-Trump trollies. Did someone check the swastika flag makerās profile?
I think itās pretty safe to assume that people who want Trump to get elected are not going to design and publicize a Trump swastika flag.
It has one of the most intuitive and enjoyable UIs for simple 3D modeling that you can now export to print or tweak further in other programs.
