da fuq happen to image boards? How Did We Get Here? 11/11/2025 (Tue) 11:38:48 No.3699
Seems like suddenly we're not allowed to talk about anything but memes and lolcow drama. Is this what image boards are for anymore? Is there nowhere one can JUST BE COMFY AND REAL, without having to embroil themselves in venomacidic middle-school popularity contests like Big Social? Is there nowhere online not full of either normalfaggots and normgroids and their niggerworship and troondicksucking and homosacredcows where roastiefoids can do no wrong and brainless consoomer-cattledom, OR the even worse retardautismal alternative: socially dysfunctional emotionally undisciplined mentally handicapped unironic politislop obsessors keyboard warrior transnazi cowardly bitches never shutting the fuck up about da j00z (but desert tribemonkey yeshua isnt a ded kike onna stick, somehow he doesnt count, herp durr; leta ignore all the Bible like no swearing etc by only focus on Leviticus gaybashing drooling donkey diarrhea, lets larp that wypipo wuz kangz DA tr00 israelites lelelele) and crying about much degeneresseh despite spamming drawn naked Japanese people and lolicon ecchi with somehow doesnt count as cheese pizza ("drawings aren't people hurr durr" "well then photos and videos aren't people either derpderp; pedoadjacents are so fucking cute in their mental gymnastics, their one and only exercise roflcoptar") unironic bootlicking collectivist hiveminded wannabe tyrants who never intend to follow the same arbitrary and capricious might makes right rules and laws they crave imposing upon everyone else because theyr e frightened little girls who need a sweaty leather daddy to bark orders at them their whole life (not gay at all lmao) due to extreme terror and dread of having to make your own decisions in life because youre a scare whimpering sniveling fagcunt who can't handle freedom and self-determination and anything that isnt bootlicking authority simping groupthink addiction is "lolbert" and by the way why aren't you wearing your mask antivaxxer? Is there anywhere in the whole wide world, not just online, where you can just be comfy and real without having to obey antiwhite judencommies wearing dangerhair and problemglasses and if youre even slightly right of Marx/Mao/Lenin/Stalin youre banhammered for hatespeech? Anywhere at all i can speak gamer words and its not a big deal or even a thing at all? Anyplace left that isnt an insular anticulture antisociety anticivilization of lobotomized cockroach farts with downs syndrome and alzheimers? Must I give up on communicating with other humans entirely? Must I surrender to complete hikki isolation because there is no longer a place for me to just be myself like image boards and other "geek" communities used to be before Second September and The Great Awokening? And you wonder why anonymous culture is dead, going over the top toxic intentionally Coldsteel edgelord niggetry  in terror or le normiez until you push out all the good posters too, until all that is left is ASP malignant narcissistic spergerkwayne snobelitist shitpeople at the very bottom of social value and negative charisma contributing nothing but negativity and being a waste of space. Shitpeople like you. Good job.
The use of the n-word, a racial slur directed at Black people, is a complex and deeply contentious issue that touches on themes of racism, historical trauma, and cultural sensitivity. This essay will explore the reasons why the n-word should not be used, focusing on its historical context, the harm it causes, and the importance of respectful and inclusive language. Historical Context The n-word has a long and painful history rooted in the transatlantic slave trade and the subsequent enslavement of Africans in the Americas. It was used to dehumanize and oppress Black people, reducing them to the status of property rather than human beings. The word was a tool of oppression, used to justify the brutal treatment and exploitation of enslaved people. Even after the abolition of slavery, the n-word continued to be used as a means of maintaining racial hierarchy and discrimination. Psychological and Emotional Harm The use of the n-word inflicts significant psychological and emotional harm on Black individuals. It serves as a reminder of the historical and ongoing racism that Black people have endured. The word can evoke feelings of anger, sadness, and humiliation, and it can trigger traumatic memories of racial violence and discrimination. For many Black people, hearing the n-word can be a deeply painful and distressing experience, regardless of the context in which it is used. Cultural Appropriation and Misuse One of the arguments often used to justify the use of the n-word is that it has been reclaimed by some members of the Black community as a term of endearment or empowerment. However, this reclamation is complex and nuanced. The word's meaning and impact can vary widely depending on who is using it and in what context. When non-Black people use the n-word, it is often seen as cultural appropriation and a disrespectful appropriation of Black culture. It can also be perceived as a form of microaggression, where the user may not intend harm but still causes offense and discomfort. Legal and Professional Consequences The use of the n-word can have serious legal and professional consequences. In many workplaces, schools, and public spaces, the use of racial slurs is prohibited and can result in disciplinary action, including suspension, termination, or legal action. The word is widely recognized as offensive and derogatory, and its use can damage reputations, relationships, and careers. In a professional setting, using the n-word can create a hostile work environment, leading to decreased productivity, morale, and job satisfaction. Conclusion The n-word is a deeply offensive and harmful racial slur that has a long history of oppression and discrimination. Its use causes significant psychological and emotional harm, perpetuates cultural appropriation, and can have serious legal and professional consequences. Promoting inclusive language and raising awareness about the harmful effects of the word are essential steps in creating a more respectful and equitable society. By avoiding the use of the n-word and encouraging others to do the same, we can contribute to a culture of respect, understanding, and inclusion.

>>3699 >da fuq happen to image boards? How Did We Get Here? 50% SJWs, 50% glowbois CP-spamming every small imageboard to death in order to herd the normgroids into the little concrete pens marked "Facebook" and "Twitter" and "Discord," and "Reddit," so that they can keep tabs on them easily and clamp down instantly on any expressions of thoughtcrime. Of course this is a bit of an oversimplification (not all SJWs work for the government, but all the pink-haired queers at Eglin and Denison Barracks and Yellowknife and Canberra who run the bot accounts that slide your discussions off the front page and spam your boards with infinite CP when that doesn't work, are cackling, foaming-at-the-mouth shitlibs who hate their fathers) but that is the gist of it. Big imageboards? Run by people who HATE the userbase, HATE civilization, HATE wypipo. Small imageboards? Constantly under siege and constantly getting DDoS'd, spammed, and flooded, often with CP, from government servers. Shut up, normie. Imageboards are for nerds, normie. They're outdated. They don't work right. They're down all the time. They're full of weirdos who post CP. You shouldn't associate with those people. You'll get on a list. They aren't cool. Don't you want to be cool? Don't you want to go on Faceberg with all the cool kids? Please upload scans of your ID and sixteen face images to make an account. We won't misuse this, we promise. We're doing this to protect the children. This is for your own good. Shut up and obey.
>>3727 >How Did We Get Here? All such questions can always be answered to a first approximation, with simple rejoinder "jews did this".
>>3715 If the N word is so toxic, why do N use it? Answer: it's just another way to get the sheep used to the concept of privilege based on identity. Whitey can't say it, nigga bro can. The fact that the privilege is assigned to a formerly oppressed group (Africans have plundered Europe for centuries, but apparently the tally starts with American cotton fields, whatever) is even worse because you peddle also collective responsibility. The same concept that enabled nazi, commie, jewish, islamic atrocities.
>>3715 Nigger, pls. When will LLMs ever learn? >>3729 >Answer: it's just another way to get the sheep used to the concept of privilege based on identity. >Whitey can't say it, nigga bro can. I don't personally mind 'privilege based on identity'. After all White are statistically superior on practically ever metric -- on average -- above other races. I'm sure it was genetic selection based primarily on our environmental hardships (and our adaptations to them) over the past 40-50 thousand years. >tl;dr We've earned our 'specialness' in general. Untold millions of us died during these prehistoric struggles for survival. We deserve the benefits of that. First and foremost among these benefits being our freedom of association...we all have the right to be among our own people, alone, as we each see fit to. Access to White people is not a basic human right. Clearly this made up agenda about the 'nigger' word is a kike gayop intended to attack us , the Whites, by "validating" feral chimpouts by these subhumans at sounds coming out of one race's mouths. Yet another bioweapon attack against us all. --- But the solution is simple: get rid of the kikes, and all their follow-on evils like uppity niggers, stronk independynts, filthy commies -- the whole rot -- all disappear practically overnight. Simple as.
>>3730 > practically every metric*
>>3728 I think that's facile. The truth is, we had anonymity and privacy in the dial-up Internet. Your modem would dial your ISP over the phone and there were not normally logs. It'd hand you a currenlty unused IP address and you were off to the races. This was back when the newsmedia had pages that accepted comments from the public and didn't require you to make an account and show ID and dox yourself before you could comment on the outrage of the day. You could go to Usenet with a pseudonym and speak truth to the whole (connected) world. But the normies didn't like it. The normies didn't like having to diddle with .ini files to get Trumpet Winsock to work so that Windows 3.1 could talk to the modem. They didn't like having to do stuff from a command line. They didn't like it a bit. It required too much abstract thought and it made their brains hurt. Thirty years ago, as now, only a tiny, tiny minority of people online had any interests in anything that you or I would consider important. They just wanted to gossip about muh sportsball and muh Hollywood and muh teevee. It wasn't hard at all for the Powers that Be, not all of whom wear a kippeh, to lead them by the nose away from the freedom and privacy they never really wanted in the first place. The normies love their little concrete pens. They get to gossip about muh sportsball and buy muh Funko Pops without ever having to do anything requiring more effort than turning on the magic box. They're as happy as pigs in shit. The government says "You have to show ID to talk on the Internet," and they nod along. Well, ya have to show ID to buy liquor, and ain't this just the same? We gotta do it for thuh childrenz! THUH CHILDRENZ! And this will protect ya from MUH TURRORISMS! Why don'tcha wanna show ID and dox yourself before you can criticize the government? Ya some kinda weirdo? All it took was a few little nudges. Nudge, nudge, nudge. It was just a few little subtle adjustments to the path the normies already chose. The problem ain't "the Jews," fren. It's us. It's all of us. It's all our fault.
>>3732 Kek. You had me until the very last two sentences. Well-played! ::D No, it's the kikes. Always was for at least the last thousand years or so. No don't misunderstand me, I'm not attributing to these diseased gypsy morons the kind of wisdom needed to "Nudge, nudge, nudge" the world into their own damnation & destruction. Only their father the fallen angel Satan could do that. But the simple fact remains that they are his cheif shabbos golems to pull off just such a sequence over 100's of years and generation after generation of NPCs to follow along, willingly letting these demonic wretches put steel hooks through their jaws. >tl;dr There is no political solution.

>>3727 >war never changes.png Once again I stumble upon screen shots of my own posts while lurking. Fun fact: A few months after I posted that I made a joke about killing the president with my massive cock and a hoard of glow niggers showed up at my front door. I'd been choosing my words carefully and effort posting pretty hard around that time. So they ended up having to use the most flimsy excuse possible to show up without a warrant.
>>3734 Intredasting. Wonder why it took them months if they were in fact """concerned"""?
>>3735 The lag time between them showing up and the post they claimed they showed up for was about 5 weeks IIRC. The post was an obvious joke I made when debating freedom of speech with some glow nigger on a public board. The US Government fears my mighty cock it has now been labeled a weapon of mass destruction. I had an SS agent, multiple people from the SBI (state FBI), FBI agents and about 10 local cops show up. There were about 18-20 people in all. I didn't count but it was a large group. They came and parked all over the property looking for me. Beat on my prior address door (parent's house aka where my "legal" address is because I never bothered to update it when I moved years ago). They harassed multiple people in the neighborhood. Two of them sat under a security camera at a building I own for hours talking smack about how they had my families entire property surrounded. All that and no warrant. They kept trying to get me to sign a piece of paper to give them legal access to my medical records and begging me to let them into my home. Then the SS agent started taking pictures of my stuff outside and demanded to take a picture of my face. Threatened to arrest me if I said no but they didn't do anything after I went back inside and told them to fuck off. Well nothing to me. They went and tried to interview my Grandparents and got told to fuck off. Strangely, two things I wrote long papers about that were buried on the web suddenly got wikipedia pages and some discussion on major platforms in the weeks that followed. Before the topics would get instantly banned/deleted and buried. The wikipedia pages and discussion happening now are total misdirection though. If you read those threads and pages you'll come away with no real understanding of it. It's pure spin and propaganda. One of the "cyber agents" from the SBI actually tried to sweet talk her way into my home with promises of sexual attention. An ugly late 30s-early 40s hag. They threatened to look at my HDDs and I told them there was nothing on them but pictures. They perked up at the sound of that and got really interested in what kind of pictures I had. I told them it was thousands of images of anime girls. They got dumb struck and asked why I would have thousands of images of that. I said "because they're cute" and at that point I think I finally spooked them with my autism. I shouldn't have interacted with them at all but they'd already harassed so many locals that I'd had multiple people come knock on the door to warn me the police were looking for me. At the time I didn't know it was the feds I just assumed the local cops had issued a warrant or something. I made the mistake of walking over to my Grandparent's house to warn them that the police were around and not to talk to them. When I walked back to my own home people came out of the bushes and multiple SUVs rolled up on me. They held me at gun point and started barking commands. I asked if they had a warrant and they said no. So I just went and sat on my porch and humored them for a bit. Still it was a bad idea to talk to them and I won't do it again in the future. In the weeks leading up to that raid they watched my house with black SUVs at all hours of the day and night. They broke into my home multiple times to and would move shit around to let me know they'd been inside. I made a habit of walking around naked because I figured the place was bugged.
>>3736 Anyway I'm still not sure what pissed them off because I was writing about so much at the time. My best guess is either a DoD project I stumbled upon that had been buried since 2007 with no discussion happening anywhere on the internet or a paper I wrote about a very powerful pharmaceutical family that had recently fled the country with ill gotten gains. This was in late 2021 or mid-2022. I can't recall exactly when they raided. I just remember it was summer because the SS agent kept crying about how he was hot and wanted to go inside. Part of the reason I kept humoring him was because they were all standing in the mid-day sun in 100F degree weather or so and were sweating bullets. You could tell all the feds weren't used to being outside. They kept begging to be let in the house because they wanted to talk where there was A/C (so they said). They really really wanted into the house bad. Even though they'd already been in it multiple times. They would watch the place for weeks waiting for any chance to break in again. They only got a 10-15 minute window once a week to do that because I went full hermit once I noticed them and only left once a week for groceries. Every time I'd leave to buy food and supplies without fail they would break in and move shit around. I know they went up in the attic because one of them left a boot print on the wall next to the entrance. I figure his buddy boosted him up there because it was impossible to get up there without a ladder. I knew one of my machines was totally compromised because it started acting very odd in the weeks leading up to the raid. They did something to one tower I had just chilling in a corner that hadn't been used in years to. I knew because they didn't put the case back on it correctly. They never got a chance to get at my main machine I used because I always took it with me even into the store. It never left my bag and it was fully encrypted so unless it was on it was impossible to get anything off of it. All radios in it had been disabled years ago (not that they'd work anyway with the OS I use on it). I also got hit multiple times with whatever weapon they're using to cause "havana syndrome" around that time and a few times since then. Although it hasn't happened in awhile now it was happening very often for at least a couple of years after this encounter with them. They also followed me 300+ miles all the way to the coast and back one day when I did a favor for a family member and rode down to the coast with them to pick up a car (which I drove back). We got followed by two black SUVs all the way down and one of them followed me all the way back. I estimate they spent over $20,000 just on watching me for those several months. I committed no crime other than expressing my freedom of speech/freedom of the press.
>>3737 >>3736 Concerning the weapon they used on me: I figure it's just run of the mill microwave weapon. It was always easy to tell when they hit me with it. I'd hear a loud buzzing sound that would ramp up over the course of about 10-30 seconds. Soon as it got loud it would feel like all my energy was zapped. I couldn't do anything but lay down. Usually, I'd have to put my head down on my desk and then stumble to bed. Where I'd sometimes lay for hours feeling horrible. I'd get a splitting headache and body aches all over. Couldn't sleep. Couldn't distract myself from it. They'd lower the power or shut it off for a bit just to ramp it back up and sometimes they'd keep that going for hours. After getting hit with it I was unable to sleep for days sometimes week. I'd feel awful for weeks afterwards. I eventually got where I could tell it was going to happen because I'd feel flushed just before the buzzing started. Which I assume was my skin heating up from the microwaves. I don't think someone was hiding in the bushes or anything. From what I can tell it was a long range weapon. Getting away from windows didn't really do anything to stop it. I have one room with no windows and going in there didn't stop the symptoms or make it any less powerful when they were actively using it. Getting to that room was hard in the first place because when it's aimed at your it's almost impossible to walk. I'd often have to crawl to the couch or to the bed. Once there I couldn't do anything but lay there and take it. It's like the worse flu and the worse drunk you've had all at the same time. The buzzing sounds electric. Like a power line arcing or something. It's hard to describe. You don't really hear it because it's inside of your head. I wonder how much my chance of cancer sky rocketed from getting hit with that thing several times. There is absolutely no way a weapon like that should be legal. I wouldn't use it on my worse enemy. Anyway, I stopped writing so I suppose they got the reaction they wanted. There isn't anywhere worth publishing anymore at this point anyway.
