The word "Larp" came from underground online criminal networks

[threadeffort]

I remember lots of people in that space saying "larp" before the word blew up. Interesting how it went so mainstream, wonder how it even did tbh.

No, before it was mainstream it was used in these communities often, obviously it came from older roots, but it was popularized in these communities. Half the people you see on social media flexing their wealth are from these online communities, hence where the word "larp" came from

yes, I understand the meaning, but I want to reiterate, the word was popularized by big crypto thieves calling each other "larp" when flexing their hits. They posted on social media showing their fake stuff, and other people in these communities would say "larp"

I learned LARP from rw groups in 2019 while some of my friends started getting alternative exposure to it in 2022 from trannies bro this isn't some crazy criminal evil word, it's existed and has been used forever. Really hate that normies appropriated it, I remember when I was younger (like in 22/23) and could freely use the word chud, LARP, etc around normies without anyone knowing what it meant.

yeah good point, i meant more that the word was populated by com communities, rather than created
