I don't believe you, but for the sake of argument, if you were actually a gay person that somehow bonked your head and scrambled your brains to the point where you thought it was a good idea for white supremacists to use a slur that leads directly to violence against your friends and yourself, it would still be a slur since 99.9999% of gay people would say it was.

>I don't believe you

There's that delusion again!

>if you were actually a gay person that somehow bonked your head and scrambled your brains

Now you're IMAX-level projecting about being delusional and deranged.

>white supremacists to use a slur

For the fifth time, it's not a slur, and stop moving the goal posts and building straw men.

>that leads directly to violence against your friends and yourself

This is the same tired illogic that's been around for decades that's been demonstrably proven false. "Violent video games, violent music, violent words, etc. directly leads to violence!"

>it would still be a slur since 99.9999% of gay people would say it was.

Doesn't matter because in this community it's not a slur, as proven above. QED.

Your argument rests on 4chan not existing the real world. Your entire premise is faulty, because it does. "Fag" is a slur on planet earth (where the 4chan users reside). There's no argument beyond that.

Wrong, 4chan is a subset of "the greater real world", and therefore has different sensibilities, culture, etc. Exactly how Blacks can say the n-word and it's not offensive, they have their own sensibilities and customs, and are a subset of "the greater real world." QED. Argument is proven factually correct here. I win.

>Your entire premise is faulty, because it does.

Just proved my entire premise is logically consistent and bullet proof.

> "Fag" is a slur on planet earth (where the 4chan users reside). There's no argument beyond that.

Stop shifting the goal posts. No one is calling anyone "fag" in this instance. Even then, using the logic above it is not a slur.

>There's no argument beyond that.

You're right, because I 100% proved my point and there's no argument that can say otherwise.

I win. Any response from you is you admitting that I'm right and that I won.

Unless all of the people saying "fag" are gay, then it's not "exactly" like this. In fact, it's nothing like it. It's just straight up homophobia (and racism).

"Fag" is a slur no matter what circular junior high logic you use to contort your views.

Why are you continuing to spew nonsense? You just admitted that I am right AHAHAHA!

>Unless all of the people saying "fag" are gay, then it's not "exactly" like this.

Not all of the people saying the n-word are black, which makes it exactly like this. Thanks again for providing my point!

>In fact, it's nothing like it.

It's exactly like this.

>It's just straight up homophobia (and racism).

Wrong, it's neither. Stop shifting goal posts.

>"Fag" is a slur no matter what circular junior high logic

There's that IMAX-level projection again! It's not a slur given the context, QED.

ALSO, AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Thanks for admitting I am right.

I win. Any response from you is you admitting that I'm right and that I won.

There's no discussing things with racists or homophobes. Sorry, I'm done with you. "Fag" and the N word are slurs, and there's no escaping that (no matter what your cognitive dissonance says). I hope you grow up someday and learn this.

Good thing I'm neither, and you discussing with me proves that I'm not. QED.

>Sorry, I'm done with you.

Glad you admit defeat.

>"Fag" and the N word are slurs,

Except no one is calling people those. Stop moving the goalposts and stop creating strawmen.

>and there's no escaping that

Just did above, with bulletproof logic. QED.

>no matter what your cognitive dissonance says). I hope you grow up someday and learn this.

There's your famous IMAX-level projection!

I won.

/pol/ and /b/ are basically half of 4chan today. It's now less a trashcan are more like the country becoming a dumpster.

Even if the country is half a dumpster, as long as it's well defined and doesn't leak too much into the rest, I think it's okay.

Well, in this case everywhere else it stinks at best. Even /lit/ is full of antisemitism nowadays.

No we wouldn't.

Making an alt account because I don't want to be misconstrued as 'supporting racism' or something. I did a quick search and it seems like 4chan is definitely not all white people. It may be majority white but I doubt it. Using the 4chan JSON API, I looked at the /pol/ and /int/ boards to see the range of countries posted. /int/ has posts from 99 unique countries. /pol/ has posts from 100 unique countries, but many of…

None of your data is valid.

> If you compare this list to the types of posts you see on Facebook/Twitter etc. then it's actually quite diverse. I have never seen this kind of content on Twitter or Facebook, in my own feeds or in trending topics. I would have to actively look. I have however seen a ton of real diverse content from a diverse group of people. This is a lie that where the intent is to downplay the white supremacist content.

I think you missed the point. Of course this stuff isn't on Facebook and Twitter. Which means the precence of 4chan actually increases the diversity of content on the Internet.

Having WS content does not "increase the diversity".

It really fucking sucks that you're in my industry.
