So what truly supposedly ruined boards of high traffic (Sup Forums, Sup Forums, Sup Forums, /r9k/, etc.)?
Was it the influx of kids and angsty teens and millennials as a result of the election?
Do people only care about cummies?
Did the oldfags just outgrow it?
What happened?

yeah after 09, young kids flooded to this site. thats when the hitler spam started. then 12 ron paul drove all the pol cucks here. just kept getting worse and worse. more raids, doxxing, harrassment. finally we got to where we are today. quite sad to see the irl autists conjugate and ruin this site
I'm a newfag, t. 2014, so I've only seen neo-nazis and libertarians on Sup Forums. What about cucks? What was that?
t. OP
i got here in 05 but i was only in 5th grade
cuck has been around since about late 11. cuck comes from the nazis that flooded here to support ron paul. its the same group of trumpers now. pol has always been shit. but what gaooened was a bunch of lonely spergs got together and started the mens rights/red pill. its an antiwoman group. guess who else is antiwoman? the nazis. so all the lonely spergs started adopting nazi views and pol/b/v became the same group on different boards
happened*
also the poltard nazis & ron paul conspiracy theorists have been crackpotting on the internet since it was invented. theyre the 9/11 truthers before it became a meme. alex jonesers have been around forever. thats who pol is.
A question about this, then:
I know kids and young teenagers browse Sup Forums and take it seriously, and probably learn bad behaviors like not taking things with a grain of salt.
Could this partially fuck up a generation?
They're not just being edgy?
Only if parents allow their kids to be raised by the internet.
pol, the_donald, infowars etc are a very very small group. i see no reason to believe why theyre bigger than any other group of truthers throughout history. poltards have been around long before the days of the internet and will always be around. theyre disenfranchised, low education people. they were fucked up before they got to pol, pol just guided them.
i think a lot of them do take it seriously
Doesn't this happen a lot in reasonably wealthy and beyond households, although most probably lurk on Snapchat and Facebook?
If Sup Forums changed rules with Sup Forums or tried to change Sup Forums could it work? Such as enforcing a rule for the mods to delete >muh jews posts?
Would board spillover worsen it?
Or do kids need to just get some years to mature?
So censoring people from complaining about jews?
Just like CBN, ABC, etc right
Kids should just learn to take things with a grain of salt before coming here. It's a shame that gr2 is nearly impossible to enforce for everyone.
they did delete pol before (was called n back then). Sup Forums lost a bit of traffic since pol is the most active board (go figure that the truthers have a lot of time on their hands) so i doubt theyll delete it until major lawsuits happen which dont seem unfathomable. pol has been escalating since trump started running.
Sup Forums prides itself on "free speech" and the mods here a little edgy themselves so i dont think theyll do anything.
we already have really bad spillover. pol would prob come to b if anything
kids need to get out and explore the world. poltards truthers and nazis live very cloistered lives. if they had a chance to explore society & find a home in society, they wouldnt be so edgy and hateful
The goal for the hypothetical censorship is to reduce Sup Forumstard culture to whatever extent possible, probably through reducing influence by reducing content.
Couldn't Hiroshimoot get away with changing the disclaimer you get when coming to Sup Forums it's also saying "take this with a grain of salt", with perhaps a delayed close button?
So the problems lie in the individuals and subsequently shit up the culture.
07 reporting, after the first couple of years the boards lost their thrill for me. It just became another boring routine which gradually stopped, check it:
>type Sup Forums.org/b/catalog
>scroll down/check posts
>nothing interesting
>move to /r9k/
>meh
>go to to /wg/
>muh papes
>close browser
>play dawn of war
>????
>profit
So you outgrew chan⁴ and you influenced it less?
hiro doesnt care what pol posts as long as its not illegal or losing him money. he isnt concerned with a misinformed base
pol is home to societal rejects. the disenfranchised. the bullied. the socially stunted. the uneducated. the cloistered. with the occassional "alpha" aka someone who manages to hold a decent job but still has no social capacity.
they attract to places like pol bc they can feel special, important, powerful, knowledgeable etc. they attach to pol ideals bc its what validates them.
if youre asking what we can do, not much. a lot of them arent even american, theyre mostly east europe which are trash countries
Just suggesting a reason some oldfags might have stopped browsing?
I think that the addition of other boards divided the content on Sup Forums. Think of it like this, it used to just be Sup Forums for animals and Sup Forums for everything else. But as a new board emerges, that's one less topic you'd see on Sup Forums. Eventually it became so divided that basically weird porn is all that's left for the random board.
t. cuck
That's why I asked, I don't really trust myself to correctly understand shit 100% of the time.
Boycott when?
So according to you it's a bunch of individual problems expressed in a community, which is c⁴h⁴a4n4.
So what if the people of 2016 were there then?
t. Sup Forums
>weird porn is all that's left for the random board.
and race baiting, dont forget Sup Forumss bread and butter
would a /rb/ (race baiting) board work
then Sup Forums could at least be just "weird porn"
I have been speaking like a retard in this thread. The fact I'm admitting it here is exactly that behavior.
...
Sup Forums is the only one doing ok. The board still feels like Sup Forums, is not dominated by normalfags and mainstream guys, while not being too focused on self pithiness.
Even when it gets constantly attacked by organized propaganda groups (CTR, JIDF, etc), it is still a great place to discuss things as they are.
It also produces a great amount of general content, while other boards are just rehashing shit from kikebook.

Notice how pol is so obsessed with the "liberals, sjws, feminazi, nignogs,etc" losing the election? they dont even care that trump won, they just wanted someone else to lose. they wanted someone else to feel like the loser they feel like in society.
The Cuck meme was not around in 2011...
It came about in 2014 during gamergate
the ron paulers were definitely using cuck in late 2011
the only ones who "attack" pol is tumblr who have as much credibility as poltards. none.
i do have to admit that the lefty trolls are hilarious tho
