Hate to be pedantic. I basically agree with your overall point, but it’s “toe the line”, not “tow the line”.

You don’t join it. Everyone is anonymous. You can go there today and post, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

After two years of the Left dismissing all dissent as “Russian bots”, now they’re concerned with dehumanization.

The Great Meme War is real.

“A quick internet search of the NPC meme will return an article by Kotaku which complains about the concept of the NPC label and describes it as ‘dehumanising’.”

The Devil is also very upset about being dehumanized.

Everything the leftists say can easily be translated because it all means the same exact thing: I want power. I want to control you. I want to be in charge of what you do, think, say, feel, believe, and desire. I will do ANYTHING to achieve these ends. If you get in the way, I want to destroy you in the most painful way possible. So, I demand that you agree with me and like it.

Other than this, the leftist talking heads look, talk, and act as if they were human. And what is “dehumanizing” is that the brain-dead, NPC zombies have been enslaved and programmed with conditioned responses by the talking heads to repeat their talking points instead of learning critical thinking skills.

4chan is free and anonymous you can post at any time.

That said, you may be in for quite a shock. There’s minimal moderation, so people post gore and pornographic images all the time to shock people. What would get you banned on FR (flaming, racism) is mostly permissible. In fact, most of the people on 4chan’s politically incorrect board ARE racist and anti-Semitic of varying degrees, from people who want to self segregate to full blown Stormfront, “Hitler did nothing wrong” types.

That said, it has become a somewhat of a digital smoky backroom where all kinds of people will dump intel, the trick is knowing what is real and what is people making stuff up for their own amusement.

No thanks then. I’m not thin skinned but I’m not down for something-awful*hitler. If I’m not mistaken reddit used to be good the occasional memes and debunking PC crap, but I haven’t heard of them as much lately

There is no such thing as “Joining” 4chan in the sense that you do here. At the chan’s there is no account and no log in. You simply go there and read or post anonymously.

R/The_Donald has a decent 4chan cross poster contingent. They used to brag about it being their Reddit colony where memes 4chan would make would be spread to “normies” (often after being sanitized). I’m pretty sure the “It’s OK to Be White” poster campaign was one case.

Now they complain about 4chan being flooded with redditors and ruining everything, victims of their own success I guess.
