From Troll To Terrorist: Joshua Goldberg And How Ideology Corrupts Online Media

Criminal complaint

Joshua Goldberg – Medium

Note: After this episode was released for Primos, Joshua Goldberg clarified that he is not the founder for r/PhilosophyofRape. “Rest assured that I am not now, nor have I ever been (and nor will I ever be) a rapist. Troll, yes. Rapist, no. Of all of the bottom-feeding plankton that I am surrounded by in prison, the sexual predators are the ones that I despise the most.” Apologies to Joshua. The episode has been corrected.
