"You can say whatever you want here!"
"Cool, what do most people talk about?"
"Well, you can say most stuff anywhere. So we tend to just talk about the stuff that gets us banned: CSAM and telling one another to kill ourselves"
An hero
I havent been afraiding of anything for almost 20 years thanks to him
Much like football, 4chan benefits a lot from edited highlights.
be on ifunny
First mistake
First
Doubtful
yeah i got an itemized list here of my mistakes and going on ifunny doesn't even make the list. it's just under De Minimis Internet Fuckups
I am genuienly curious as to the composition of your 'De Minimis Internet Fuckups' category.
I mean I used to be on reddit
Same. =(
In 2026. I didn't even know it was still around
Anon...
The pool was closed due to AIDS, like, almost 20 years ago.
But everybody kept swimming.
That's why you get your greentexts on Lemmy. All the funny posts with none of the posts that are just slurs over and over again in all caps.
I get this with Tumblr posts.
I see the funniest stuff reppsted elsewhere, but when I go, its never any of that.
They go on and on and on about the British Broadcasting Corporation and I mean multiple threads per hour but the threads instantly get spammed with pictures of dudes with their weiners out.
I know what you mean. I asked about people's DP experiences and all I got were film cinematography qualifications.
I've been taking online classes to try to get on your level
It's a big pile of shit with a couple of golden needles in it. Props to the people who are willing to wade through it to liberate the quality posts.
The worthwhile posts find their way out.
Anon was too young for ratemypoo.com, and it's brethren hotornot.com, both coming in hot about 4-5 years before 4chan launched.
i got banned from ratemypoo. they thought i wasn't posting human poos. i was.
Sir you have destroyed my morning
Better your morning than their toilet
There is .... an english version as well? I just knew scheisse-bewerten.de, but apparently the site is down, since quite some time. I thought it was just a german thing.
I thought a place with a ton of freedom to say what you liked would have more creative people
Au contraire. Places that limit speech lead to more creative ways of telling the establishment to go fuck themselves.
a place with a ton of freedom to say what you liked would have more creative people?
Grave mistake, especially when you're dealing with anons. You don't even need 4chan anons, any place with complete anonymity and zero moderation will devolve into a horror show of the worst humankind can offer
you don't need anonymity. plenty of places on the internet people post horrible nonsense with their faces attached.
The alt right was born on 4 chan from what I hear, as was q, where some hedge fund prick is thought to have started it to project the ruling class' own child fucking captured on video by Israel through epstein onto the opponents of the ruling class.
Q is from 8chan. One could argue that 8chan came from 4chan but they were two distinct beasts at the time. 8chan is (was?) where the people too extreme for 4chan went.
Not defending 4chan, just correcting the misinformation.
The Q posts did originally start on 4 chan.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QAnon
Though QAnon has its origins in older conspiracy theories, it was set in motion in October 2017 when Q first posted on the website 4chan. Q claimed to be a high-level government official with Q clearance, with access to classified information about the Trump administration and its opponents.[17] Q soon moved to 8chan, making it QAnon's online home.[18] Q's often cryptic posts, which became known as "drops", were collected by aggregator apps and websites and relayed by influencers.
I saw some of them there.
And, given what the Epstein files have revealed... at this point, I think the original Q was just literally Steve Bannon.
Then it got handed off to the weirdo father/son pair that run (ran?) 8chan.
That's basically my hunch, can't definitively prove it.
Oh right, is that the one created by that developmentally disabled kid that advocated for killing such people as himself and other nazi shit, then repented and tried to shut it down later? I think I heard something about him. Nevertheless, the shit birthed on 8 chan migrates to 4 chan to get reared as I understand it, so calling it "misinformation" is kind of a dickish way to correct someone.
Yes, that's the guy!
It was misinformation, though. Q and the most extreme bigots are from 8chan^1^. I don't think you did it deliberately which is why I didn't call it disinformation, it's just not accurate
^1^ Of the chans. There's plenty of forums that make 8chan look tame.
Hey uh unrelated question
Yes, that's the guy!

Are you intentionally putting ^1^ into your comments, or... is this some weird result of maybe my mobile client spazzing out?
It's a note reference like in a book.
...main subject.^1^
^1^ Further notes/explanation
Yes it's Lemmy markdown for superscript. Or at least that's what my client tells me
So I don't know if this is coming through, but it is also causing a line break, for me at least.
pic of what I am seeing
Do you see the same thing, or, does it not cause a line break for you?
the alt right existed before 4chan. it just didn't become popular until the mid 2010s after social media allowed it to rapidly reach a mass audience, and people started making money from alt right talking points. Stormfront started in 1996, and hate.com was a docufilm from 2000 that reported on internet extremists
it was all over the internet in the 2000s if you knew where to look, but there were no big mass market social networks back then. FB only became open to anyone in 2008 and it took 5+ years for it to really take off.
I remember my first reddit experience, in 2016, I didn't make an account, and was incensed I had to make an account as such to make a comment, and it was all alt right douchbags so I never joined at that point. I was there to research new and exciting drug plants anyway and it was an intellectual wasteland as I saw, at that time, although now that is not the case if you can find the right places, and don't mind your queries being logged by corporations and governments, but I digress.
They were still on the harambe thing, mocking the murdered gorilla, pissed me off.
That guy still hasn't taken his meds.
Yeah, you can tell by his poo!
Classic Andy Sixx posting
The Internet welcomes you.
A different kind of hug of death.
Nope, just racists
And pedophiles. Epstein was a fan.
yea
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
