Wow I hadn’t read that, or imagined they were so self aware. I’m surprised a group of self styled bullies can actually grow like that, but I suppose there’s a place on the Internet for everyone.
I don't think they see themselves as bullies. Or if they do, they see their victims as people who genuinely deserve it. (I suppose most bullies do, but most bullies don't actually convince themselves their bullying is virtuous, whereas SneerClubbers do.)

It's actually pretty common for internet communities to build up around the idea of disliking [group] or [thing] and spend copious amounts of time cataloging instances of events they believe makes such things or groups look bad. Endlessly.
I spent a lot of time observing these sorts of groups a while back and in the end they come across as, I guess, sad, since they never end up creating much of anything useful and for many of their members it seems to eventually become a damaging obsession.
So you're saying that you spent copious amounts of time cataloging instances of events you believed made such things or groups look bad. Endlessly.
