Comment on 4chan daily challenge sparked deluge of explicit AI Taylor Swift images
theterrasque@infosec.pub 4 months agoHah as if. In the early 00s the mods were in maybe once or twice a day and there was tons of CP being posted.
Worst I saw was a little girl chopped into pieces, and a many -page discussion / argument if it should be sorted as CP or Necro porn. That was the old 4chan.

Yeah I just scrolled passed that shit cause it shocked me too much to engage. Not exactly proud of my b-slur days, but also wasn’t the best time in my life, and there was something oddly welcoming about the site back then. A site where everyone called each other a f*g in ironic comradery vs having it thrown at me by homophobes for example.
Almost 20 years later I actually value the experience of being on 4chan more because of how influential it became to online culture, and later how politics happens on the the internet. It’s very rare but on a few occasions I’ve come across normal people in real life who were b-slurs at the same time, and it’s crazy how recognizable it is.
