One big reason that imageboards are not going to be making a comeback is due to the changed nature of the online ecosystem. The internet has been changed - permanently marred, really - by the sheer prevalence of social media. In 4chan's time, if you had beef with a given community or even another imageboard, you just didn't need to fucking go there and maybe talk about it and that was the fucking end of it.

Nowadays we have entire groups who literally do nothing but hunt down opinions they don't like and push towards getting them removed from the internet writ large. We have people online - quite literal human detritus like Bardfinn - who literally will go to a community that's done no wrong except express an opinion he personally disapproves of - and actively go out of his way to sabotage it. by literally uploading child porn to it - and individuals like Bardfinn are terrifyingly common as jannies within the operating of the modern internet now. They quite literally think anything they do to fuck with you is fair game, lest your opinion and not theirs reach the mainstream consciousness. The mere fact that you exist and express an opinion other than theirs is an offense they cannot countenance, because every waking second that opinion exists out there, unmolested and unfiltered, is a reminder of how fucking worthless shitheads like this are.

There is no restraint in their actions: If they could murder you over even tangential disagreement with their doctrine, they would do it with an honest-to-god smile on their faces.

Of course, anyone with a passing understanding of cause and effect sees the problem here: Namely that the jannies themselves are a literal advertisement against their own positions, and that the Streisand Effect remains alive and well. Reddit didn't get its reputation as the most toxic and malicious shithole on the internet in a vacuum; the shitheads running it made it that way. There are so many cows we cover that are also the literal embodiment of why everyone considers Jannies the lowest form of online social life that it is practically a meme, and they have done, through their hubris, more damage to their own side than all of us combined shitposting with the force of a thermobaric warhead could. Every single day reality refuses to conform to the delusion is more salt in the wounds.

Therein lies why we aren't going to see image boards return as a mainline form of internet content for some time. Not until this current crop of online faggotry starts to die off (figuratively, and we're slowly edging that direction) at least. The anonymous nature of them makes fucking with them pretty much effortless, and there are defective people with nothing but free time who will do nothing but camp a board waiting for the perfect time to act like a fucker and then self-report it to daddy government and every friendly journalist outlet they can reach. They don't care that it makes tjhings worse for everyone, they view any transgression from their orthodoxy as apostasy and they will act accordingly. They used this tactic to destroy 8chan (8chan's userbase being fucking retarded did it no favors, but the gay ops done to destroy it are undeniable), they've used it against subreddits they don't like, and they've used it to shut forums down.

......But there will come a time when this shit winds down. The troons and loons who actively make online discourse worse have long since outlived their usefulness to the establishment, and their chronic health problems and embrace of vice and weakness means they will essentially burn themselves out, either figuratively or literally. On the global stage, the tide has turned against them - the UK (of all places) literally just dropped the legal YWNBAW in their laps, and the very nature of their breed of activism means they will exhaust themselves in their bloodlust long before we all collectively stop being shatteringly autistic. Once the dust settles from that, you're going to see a return of imageboard culture, though it will take a different form from how it was in our time. I personally look forward to seeing it.
 
I don't get why nigger is such a controversial word to begin with, it'd be one thing if I would say to a black person "You're a fucking subhuman nigger slave". But the word nigger is hardly the reason that statement would be bad, then again, most people who complain about that word also do not actually care about genuine racial discrimination. This is especially evident in how little issue they have with discriminating any light-skinned ethnicities.
Well my fellow nigger some niggers like to be victim niggers who choose to act offended over the nigger word known as nigger (white or white trannytards) for whatever niggerfounded reason so who knows my nigger.

I'm not reading all of that.
 
Nah. But am sort of a hedonist I guess. Porn's just a lot of fun, among other things.
There are certain things that once you're presented with the reality of it, you have to make a choice that's unlike most of the choices you normally make, in that the choice will actually have real consequences for once.

Most males have never paid to view pornography, nor have they met anyone who's paid to view it, and yet somehow it's the most abundant content on the internet. How is that possible? It's possible because it's psychological warfare that's artificially propped and made freely available to ensure it hits its target. Once you come to the understanding that it's a psychological weapon, that realisation forces you to make a choice that has real consequences. Psychological warfare by definition means an enemy is attacking you. If you willingly subject yourself to an enemy attacking you, then what does that say about you as a person, really? Once you know it's psychological warfare, you can't unknow it, and the decision you make henceforth defines your humanity.

It also gives the visualising and manipulating of the apple meme a new meaning. When nature inevitably calls, can you perform the necessary visualisation required to scratch the itch? If you can or can't may determine if you're NPC / Hylic.

reminder further for millenials nigger was a joke word and commonly used throughout highschool by all, i dont care what the redit fags say.
same with fag, which meant you were dumb, and gay, which denoted something was stupid.

its was after occupy wall street when the news flipped into running and gunning "racism" to break up the protestors and keep the proles divided that these retards became the current day brain washed masses that has led to the zooms being the lash out sea peoples they are today. its all connected.

no one ever cared about saying nigger until the talky box heads said it was bad,

now, to say nigger is the true mark of spiritual freedom and rebellion of the free man in the modern age

It was way harder to get access to before the internet so people absolutely did pay for it then. And you seem to really be underselling the idea of piracy and ad revenue for porn sites.
 
/mlp/ alone was better than this entire website. That's not an insult to this website; it's just an impossible bar to clear.

4chan attracted a core of people devoted to the true and the beautiful—even the grotesquely beautiful—uncompromisingly. They didn't need names; there was a oneness of soul in the process of the work.

It was obvious—even over text—when redditors and other undesirables would insert themselves. They'd say things like "I've said it before and I'll say it again", as though anyone cared what they'd said before, or would know who they were afterword. They'd cargo-cult the cultural byproducts, unable to iterate or advance the conversation beyond parroting what had been said (and not understood) before—more concerned with identifying themselves with a subculture they percieved to be prestigious in some way than in the object of that culture.

Those people show up everywhere, but imageboards were where you went to escape them. The reason I keep bringing up /mlp/ is that it was the only board that managed to preserve that spirit; it was redditor kryptonite. In April fools 2017, when /mlp/ and /pol/ fused into /mlpol/, the /pol/acks said that the nor/mlp/people were not only somehow farther to the right (they'd notably hated trannies since at latest 2012 due to Purple Tinker—nearly a decade before people "peaked" or whatever on this website), but their mareposting was also scaring off the redditors who'd been plaguing the board.

I always checked back in to see how they were doing. Underneath all of the coomslop and EqG cancer, you could always see that old heart weakly beating. From birth to death she was a diseased, beautiful animal.
TRVTHNVKE
Very few people understand how ahead of the curve culturally /mlp/ has always been.
 
millenilols really are shaping up to be the inheritors of the boomer spirit. You fags almost talk the same now.
Must be because we are getting older and realizing the boomers were right all along
I'm sorry your daddy raped and beat you but some of us don't care enough about the past to throw an eternal never ending fit of "woe is me, and it's everyone else's fault"

Some of us have real shit to do, like work, work on ourselves, families because apparently millennials are the last generation that knows how to talk to girls and doesn't download AI chatbots to goon to

Your parents were ok with letting you play games and stick your face into the iPad all through your childhood, my parents only let us watch Saturday morning cartoons and games after dinner and chores before bed
The rest of my upbringing was spent touching grass and talking in person to my peers, not some electronic middle man which you happened to be addicted to

The media quite literally started to heavily imply that it was OK to kill someone who said that word after OWS. They saw people from all races and sexual orientations coming together and coming to the realization that we were all involved in a class war, and they desperately needed to divide people in order to permanently shut that shit down forever.

t. I was there. I saw it happen right in front of me. First use of the progressive stack happened at OWS. Using the Delphi Technique to dilute the cause. Blue-haired Soros operatives demanding to be put "in charge." All happened at OWS.
