The problems with 2etards is that they're the pariahs of the D&D scene. Nobody *really* likes that edition: OSR and NSR fans dislike it for the reasons given above, and while in game philosophy it is fundamentally in line with 3e and 5e, from the point of view of actual, practical game design it's objectively crap, with most of its splatbooks being considered universally the worst ever published under the D&D brand name.
If someone wants to play one of the Hickman-style editions, there's tons of reasons to choose 3e or 5e or Pathfinder, but absolutely NONE for anybody to waste time on 2e.
Now that's about actual 2etards, who are few and far in between, but that's also wholly unrelated to the anti-OSR/NSR trolls, who have decided to carry out an attack against /osrg/ and /nsrg/ because they just enjoy trolling, and at least partly, it seems also for paranoid schizophrenic imaginary political reasons, hence the constant references to presumed chuddery that they let slip.
The trolls don't actually care about 2e. They don't play it. They have shown dozens of times that they're actually unfamiliar with 2e as an edition, as well as with first decade D&D.
They have chosen 2e as the ptool to try and destroy /osrg/ and /nsrg/ because fact that it's so bad actually makes it the perfect anti-OSR/NSR trick: Defending 2e is guaranteed to annoy and elicit a reaction from anybody with half a brain.
