What is 4chan?

I have seen it referenced here a bunch of times but have no idea what it is. Is it a dark website or something like Reddit?

It's a magical place where you can see Jennifer Lawrence's butthole.

Nope, just searched, thats here too

It's an autistic safe space

An anonymous hacker

Who is skull and bones?!

See; there's this thing called "Google".....

I strongly suggest not doing that

It's u/cbanks420lol's personal blog

Jim Norton says it's the next big thing on the internet.

Similar to reddit, except most people remain anonymous so you're free to post your true feelings on an issue without it being attached to your username or whatever. Some people still need the attention though and come up with usernames, but they're mostly made fun of.

Like reddit, it's separated into sections. /b/ - Random was the most famous, but now it's mostly furry porn and other stupid shit. /pol/ - Politically Incorrect is probably the most relevant board these days. It's pretty much the birthplace of the alt-right, Pepe going for Donald Trump, and now this pissgate hoax that CNN published.

They get up to a lot of hijinks that people on this board would probably find entertaining. Last time I checked /pol/, they had this thing called "Right Wing Safety Squad", where after that fire in Oakland they took it upon themselves to ask for fire inspections at other "DIY spaces", as those are "hotbeds of liberal radicalism and degeneracy". Most of these places, as you'd imagine, didn't care much about fire codes, so they got shut down. They then kept a list of all the DIY Spaces that didn't pass the fire code, and naturally (online articles were written.)[http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/12/24/online-spaces-become-home-to-battle-over-diy-spaces-around-country/]

Very good post, I thought it might be similar to Reddit but really have no interest in going on there. You guys are entertaining enough

These days it's a lot of shit to sort through to maybe find some gold. Used to be a lot better in like 2011-12, but then moderators started powertripping as internet moderators do.

/pol/ is the most fun these days but they're fully embracing the "my party can do no wrong and your party can do no right end of story" narrative where criticizing Trump means you're a cuck shill. They also hate reddit, and admitting you come from reddit is like a prisoner admitting they're a pedophile. While I won't go so far as to say "/pol/ won Donald Trump the election", they certainly made it cool for edgy white youngsters to support him.

But honestly I wouldn't necessarily recommend it, it can get pretty fucking dark sometimes. You don't even want to know about the fluffy threads in /b/.

Its a collection of the kids who only wore sweat pants all the time at school and smell funny. They make some funny shit.

Say 'funny' again.

Oh god 4chan. That's Brother Leech's new obsession. Just go to JoeCumia.com and you can find out all about it.

The most magical place on the interwebs.

It's a front for the more underground and insidious group, their home page is Ebaumsworld

its a place where the queers go

It's the last place on the net to actually pull shenanigans that people notice. The internet hate machine.

It's a website dumbfuck. Durrr how to I find out about a website? I can't just visit the website like a regular person. I know I'll ask someone to explain it to me durrrr. I fucking suck my mommas titties durrrrr (drool, drool)

I fucking hate you.

Breathe buddy, everything will be alright

Fuck you. You refuse to use google and then use it as an excuse to talk to people online, because you have no friends. Here's another example of your lonely faggotry

LOOK IT UP STUPID MIDDLE AGED FUCK

Lol you seem mad, chill bro i just like to mess around. Remember take a deep breathe and find your center

You're right. I'm sorry.

You'll find the twinks under /hm/

Why anyone would use 4chan over reddit is beyond me

It doesn't really exist.

4chan is the gutter of the internet, in both hilarious and horrifying ways.
