Meek boys who are the ones who shun away or are shunned away from normal activities, or boys that are fascinated by computer games might be "antisocial" compared to their peers, become good at video games because they happen to play them a lot. But being men, they have the natural instinct to compete and what better way to try to boast about your abilities than to hone something you have already grown used to, playing. Also, you can try to bring in autism of some kind to this as speedrunning involves repetition of something to the extreme. So you are doing something repetitive, without getting bored, alone and/or with a select audience. These kind of people with their mentality and personality might be a group that has a higher chance of autism, trannies and overall mental illnesses compared to the basic population. Now, as they aren't quite aggressive, the speedrunning community can become quite tolerant of people since only your results matter. But as soon as some people in this group start behaving radically due to their own fantasies, political opinions and such, I would assume that it's quite easy for them to get authority since all of the others are speedrunners, wusses, or they might not just care. Give this phenomenon a few years, and you have AGDQ go from Caleb and Trihex arm wrestling in a basement, to Bonesaw getting booted out despite being an audience favorite and a laugh riot, to AGDQ being a tranny haven with almost a political bias and opinions.
