I have loved the frog shit but I would sacrifice all of the pepe memes and post "hackers on sterioids" bullshit to go back. I remember sitting in my parents living room, my grandpa watching fox news, and that famous moment played on tv and I basically shat my fucking self. I knew I was not actually doing anything worth a fuck besides sitting in on threads and a bit later playing around with the low orbit ion canon, but I thought to myself "holy fuck is this the end???" even though it was hilarious to watch them say stupid shit, it truly was the slow start of the end.
The 2014-2016 political horse crap was a funny era too, but it was a death throw desu. Because the after math brought the final waves of publicity that turned 4chan into the over crowded cancer mass it finally is today in the post moot era.
Its funny how people want to pretend 4chan was "left wing" in the past purely because dumb asses on fox news said so. They said that because they didn't know what the hell it was and all they knew was "we dont like it and anything we dont like is left wing". 4chan was all politics and no politics. The extreme left and extreme right but also extremely retarded and nothing at all.
It was prank calls while larping as an ss officer who just ordered you over 9000 pizzas. It was patching into the walmart phone system to say "attention all shoppers, for the next 5 minutes all items in the store are free". It was sending newfags to the gulags while making shitty jokes about communism and vodka. But none of it was even remotely serious. It was that scary shit your parents imagine you might be doing when they are not watching, but crazier than they could have ever imagined. It was being underage b& while swearing openly that more underage b&'s show up during summer (I was like 14 while spreading that shit and knew it was at least half bs cause I was saying it every other day about an hour after school let out lol)
The 2000's were sick as hell, here is to hoping that someday somehow there is a real path back. Im hoping the metaverse will somehow turn into something that kills all mainstream social media and suck the normals out of the internet who have helped to supress the way things used to be. But thats probably my desperate wishful thinking. Candy ass roody poos will always treat 4chan like this horrifying boogy man thats responsible for all evil, even though now its beyond a shadow of its old self. Im just glad I got to live it at all. Thanks for putting this up so many moons ago.
