4chans always been stolen from and passed around. Ive been seeing the Sir Bearington story for over 15 years now. But something about it lining someone elses pockets has bred some real fucking hostility in a hobby that relies on oral tradition.

The dissemination of memes was fine because once it left 4chan the procedure would be that people would just move on. The real problem is that everyone is stuck in "member pre-2014" so it breaks the supply chain.
There was that image of the corporate ladder, and each management position shitting in each others mouths and knowyourmeme at the bottom. That whole thing became a human centipede.

I've seen a lot of this on /vp/, where there's an anon called Chappyfag who checks to see if the OP images of various threads are Eeveelutions, and if they are, he posts corresponding Eeveelution art by an artist called Chappy, followed by spamming a lot more fanart by various artists, like so:

As you can tell by the OP's comment, the point of the thread isn't supposed to be about posting Espeon images, but discussing the Battle Facilities in Pokemon Emerald, but Chappyfag still insists on turning it into an Espeon thread anyway. So what does this have to do with anons calling other anons Indian? Well, if anyone points out that Chappyfag's posts are off-topic, another anon starts to spam posts like this:

Trying too hard to act like "I don't think the point of this thread is to post Espeon images" is actually a Jeet agenda in disguise.

Also, you're not reading those dates wrong, this thread has been up for more than a month and despite all the off-topic spam, the jannies think only the Jeet spam is worth deleting.

What is the context of what quote?
Click to expand...
If I remember correctly, it originally refers to a line in an IRC discussion moot had about 20 years ago. There should be at least one screenshot floating around the Internet with the relevant chat logs included. My memory is a bit hazy, but I think they were chatting about anime/manga on 4chan's IRC channel and moot is referring to a specific anime/manga character (that I don't remember) with that quote. He probably also said it out loud during one of the 4chan cons as a reference to the aforementioned IRC quote, which had become a meme of sorts at that point. I'm sorry I don't have any screenshots to back my words up with.
 
This sums up my 4chan experience.
>haha, i want to be a little anime girl, thats just a joke because of how chill SOL anime are
>uohh, little girl erotic is just a joke about how silly japanese sounds translated, besides, it's just cartoon girls right
>cunny, you just repeat that because you know it makes the jannies seethe right, you just think the child actress is cute, not like actually attractive, right?
>when you say you like that character it's because she's the heart of the story, not because you're a pedo, right? right??
is this a joke.png
 
Every time I pop back into 4chan because of a recent event I'm reminded that the userbase is almost entirely brown "asians" and latinx now despite the traffic being at 2010 levels
 
Some people just don't want to admit the possibility that much of their beliefs could have come about through inorganic engineering. All of these people who are so convinced that 4chan and the -chan culture was impervious to this kind of engineering and that it is inconceivable are also the same people who agree that Ghislaine Maxwell had a strange and mysterious hold over Reddit through being a moderator of half of the front page subreddits + the largest karma on the site.

To me, while the moot emails aren't exactly a smoking gun, it isn't beyond the realm of possibility. I always thought the Trump shilling was super inorganic anyway.

4chan is one of the easiest sites to socially engineer. The site has no accounts. At least with a site with accounts you can see their post history and account age, so if a guy who joined last week starts spamming one specific topic in one area of the site. It's pretty easy to tell its bad faith actor. Even 1 autisic guy can spam memes into existence(Andy stixx) on 4chan, imagine what a gov can do with a dedicated paid team. No site is going to be immune to this kind of tatic, unless everyone doxes themselves, but then you bring other issues if you want to be a political site.
 
>(Explicit) Porn and gore posting on /v/ happened to intensify these past two days
I am nooooticing. Is it too much to just want a place to talk about video games? The board itself is already a trashfire in normal conditions.

everyone HATED the new captcha until someone filtered in the idea that it filters brown people who weren't smart enough to solve it, now anytime someone complains about it being annoying and clunky, midwits flock in to brag about how they're based and white and intelligent because they can count blocks and stars

I liked it, I found it much better that the stupid slider or clicking on photos of crosswalks for two minutes. I take the fact that they had to dumb the current captcha down to explicitly tell you what pattern to look for as proof that it really was filtering low IQ posters.

Cunnyposting began with this one guy on /tv/ posting pictures of real children in swimsuits who constantly ban evaded. I don't understand how it eventually got associated with loli

It's weird how /tv/ went from one of the first places on the internet to start nooticing and drawing attention to Dan Schneider and all the other stuff going down at Nickelodeon to having people spamming random threads with CSAM claiming they should be allowed to because it was published in Playboy. I guess they flew a little too close to the sun like /pol/.
