What is this about and who's behind it?
BTW, I particularly enjoyed the "references and proofs" section in the end.

It's probably EP and it would actually have been wise not to give him more attention than needed...
Who's EP?
Indeed it seems to be EP. There are probably gems inside though! I cannot bother to read it, but I found this:

Proof that at the beginning of the scene there was NO 4K NOR 64K:
first 4K dated 1998
first prods are dated more than a decade ago !
lol ep still lives? he wasn't here for years?
I AM EP
I mostly liked how he asserted that modern games and demos are all indoctrination from the military industrial complex, and that the only hope for humanity was abstract art and math.. Though I gave up on reading (and on the author's mental health) about 25% into the article.
that is some pretty fucked up shit right there!
Some people take the scene just way too seriously.
...
Yeah it's old hat. But shit on the internet will stay on the internet for EVER!
no it's unfortunately not an old hat, but EP actually has spammed this link to me, unlock and pouet admins last night, so it must be a new "essay" of his. it is scary how he still is into this shit after FIVE years.
i regret having had an opinion at all on scene metters and having uttered it - did cost me and others 5 years of being regularely threated and spammed by a maniac.
the whole demoscene is not worth this hassle. and i don't want to say anything on this matter again.

EP's the scene's Sideshow Bob.
I actually think he has some valid points worth considering but spoils the deliverance by being excessively ranty.
Please sum it up (hint: use bullet points) for those of us who won't bother reading it.
- * typical hugi nonsense
tl;dr
Who is EP?
I AM EP

FYI:
the C64 and former 8 bits, the first 16/32 bits machines have sold far less than any PC has ever did, we were part of niche market by rather educated connoiseurs.
Somebody, please tell the guy the C64 is the most selling personal computer of all times, ALL TIMES!

You mean to tell me the spastic is ranting about 6 year old articles in a new rant? That's fantastically insane.
Also, nobody cares about that clown, so just ignore it.
Haha shit, I'm actually wading through this now. This is fantastic comedy!
What? :D

Mr Stalin spiritual son, you've never forgiven sceners for no more using your BBS when fast DSL lines became popular and your greed was present in your art from day one in your $$$ ASCII art.
What? :D
