I don't know enough about the arranged marriage thing, but I remember Messo being a big follower of the Newgrounds community even after the culture war designated them as edgy bigots. Not saying he couldn't have changed since then, but I think there's a higher probability he's a surface level "pop progressive" that doesn't really care much beyond the validation he gets over it. It's very much an always-online thing in my experience, especially when the society they live in would make them a pariah if they knew about those online activities.
The place where you upload flash cartoons? Is a player in the culture war? 
Where the fuck have you been? Newgrounds posts edgy crap all the time and it's famous for it, and edge humor now leans conservative now because "shock". It's why alt right consider South Park creators one of theirs and why South Park creators have gone to denounce them because they fear they helped build the alt right by making edgy jokes about Jews and stuff.
Forgive me for not being up to speed with all these nonsense internet wars.
To me it was and is just a place with drawings and cartoons, much like Tumblr was.
I think this constant game of making everything a political battlground is moronic in general (especially since it's attached to literally anything now, from superhero movies to children's cartoons).
But Newgrounds has a very tiny userbase, so i was more surprised it was anything more than the old flash cartoon place.
