Comment on Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?

That’s an understandable explanation. I’ve never been to 4chan because a person who attended it told me he would kick my 2 year old niece in the face and told me that’s a common belief there. Not flaunting, but I told him that no one would ever find his body if he did that.

So I avoided 4chan because my crazy would probably cause conflict with their crazy

I remember 4chan when it was “good”

Back then 4Chan was all about how funny your content was. Nationality, sexuality, gender, economic status… none of it mattered a bit.

Its a cesspit now, but it was responsible for some truly epic shit.

  I’ve never really been on 4chan for any length, but I remember some of their greatest hits- managing to almost win a contest to name the next mtn dew flavor ‘hitler did nothing wrong’, or that one time they got Taylor Swift to do a show at a school for the deaf.
  
  Kinda edgy, extremely amusing.

    The “you can microwave your IPhone to recharge it” and “Iphones are waterproof” were amazing.
    
    The Burger King lettuce boxing was pretty funny too.

  When it was good?
  
  I was on 4 Chan 20 years ago and even back then it was full of gore, snuff type photos and CP. It was and always will be a cesspool.

    Yeah about 20 years ago.
    
    The vibe was different, it was racist, sexist, bigoted and homophobic jokes. Now it feels like a bunch of racists sexists bigots and homophobes telling jokes. Nobody cared about who anyone really was, it was a shittalking shitposting competition. At some point it stopped feeling like bantz, it just started to feel ugly.
    
    Maybe I just grew up a bit, but I at least remember it being that way.

    I feel like the world grew up and accepted that these jokes aren’t funny, but the small subset of people who are actually bigoted ignored the memo. But there is definitely a growing up element to it as well

You aren’t missing anything. It’s a cesspool
