If I recall it was Ben Singleton (
#maximumjailbreak) who came up with it. Maybe@poly_metis can dredge up some old memes.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

I think it was a sarcastic joke in presponse to questions about what differentiates Left Accelerationists from other leftists (A: our gulags are on the moon). This origin however has been lost and it just became part of the meme canon that we hate the moon.

Russians as always are the greatest trolls. So we hear you landed on the moon, maybe we should make our moon landing project so that we verify see if you actually landed on the moon. But maybe not.Because it's not worth it.

Quine was a major right-wing American troll himself.
