There's a whole discourse around this that basically amounts to "gooners are fascists" but I'm convinced that gooning is already undergoing a transition into standard kink spaces and lgbt spaces to the point that it will lose all association with prior shitheads that have popularised it as a term. Once too many queers are saying it the bad crowds will hate it.

Anyway it's just masturbation/porn addiction and long session edging where people masturbate for several hours in a row given a new word to make it less negative for its practitioners.

Oh, so it’ll be another form of cryptohomophobia! I can’t wait to see people vagueposting on Hexbear about how “d*generate” furries AND gooners are

I think that's a possibility yeah. As it transitions out of these actually-bad circles and into kink/queer it will take on a different character and the original crowd will absolutely hate it. They'll turn on it really hard.
