A true 4channer compliment would have also included her race

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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

He’s SOOOOOOO close!
Honestly, it seems to me he realizes he fucked it up, and the fact he blames 4chan suggests some level of self-awareness. I really hope he logged off that wretched site and apologized to the woman.
I'd say it's 50/50 the share of the blame. Half on 4chan being what it is, half on anon for being stupid enough to browse it frequently
Is that a trend on 4chan?
Yes belittling women is a trend on 4chan
Well then, they don't sound very nice over there.
They're not really all misogynist and racist right? It's just a joke? Right?
4chan is comprised of different boards. When you hear about 4chan, it is most likely from the /b Board which is the "anything goes" board with pretty much zero moderation. Other boards are better.
Sadly it leeches out into other boards as well. /fit/ is borderline unusable nowadays
Definitely not zero moderation. That wouldn't last long these days.
They remove actual CP and basically nothing else
Honestly, once upon a time 4chan was pretty liberal and anarchist. They protested Scientology even. That is definitely no longer the case.
Once the fucking Nazi types figured out extremely bare minimum lax moderation meant they could use slurs with abandon and still be okay, the use of slurs quickly turned from a "we hate everyone" in-joke to a "no, we legitimately hate you inferior races" bent extremely quickly.
There are still boards that aren't total garbage, but the site overall is kind of a shadow of itself in its heyday and now users spend as much time posting Qanon garbage and legit Anti-Semitic hate threads on every board as it used to spend being funny. Honestly really sad.
It started as a joke but the joke attracted people who actually think like that and took it at face value.
It's the 'tism mostly, compounded by basement living.
