Wait wait wait wait...did the fall for #EndFathersDay? The 4Chan fake raid?
Jesus I knew that the Tumblr SJW stereotype actually exists but these people really took the cake.
I'm pretty sure I was on /v/ on the 4th and I never saw anything. Must have been a really shit "raid".
I think he forgot to mention this in the video but the original #ShutDown4chan post was bait made by 4chan themselves which Tumblr took seriously, just like the original #EndFathersDay post.
[QUOTE=Scot;45308765]I'm pretty sure I was on /v/ on the 4th and I never saw anything. Must have been a really shit "raid".[/QUOTE] I think 4chan has more boards than /v/
[QUOTE=JohnFisher89;45309043]I think 4chan has more boards than /v/[/QUOTE] He said they "raided" /v/ in the video.
both sites are only visited by cretins
[QUOTE=Eonart;45309160]I go to both, what does that make me?[/QUOTE] A stereo cretin
[QUOTE=Scot;45308765]I'm pretty sure I was on /v/ on the 4th and I never saw anything. Must have been a really shit "raid".[/QUOTE] You need to be on the secret raid board to see raid threads.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;45309155]both sites are only visited by cretins[/QUOTE] Not really? 4chan has /b/, which yeah, arguably "cretins" go to, while Tumblr does has a large SJW culture, but both sites have a lot more then just then those two things, which are really the only sides bothering to fight. 4chans got tons of other boards and Tumblr has got a lot of content besides SJW/Feminist/What-have-you-strawman blogs. Either way, this whole mess is gonna end the same way. Eventually the 4channers will just get bored and move on to something else and nothing will be accomplished.
What astonishes me is how pathetic and ill-informed these people were. You would think the types who are so vehemently telling people to "educate yourself" would know about 4chan, and yet couldn't even be bothered to educate themselves on 4chan at all. They had absolutely no clue what they were even dealing with, and were quite possibly the LEAST prepared people to deal with a place with material that would trigger them at every turn. Did they never hear the concept of "pissing in an ocean of piss"? the futility of their methods or see how much it would come back to bite them in the ass? What a total trainwreck.

[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;45309155]both sites are only visited by cretins[/QUOTE] It's more like, 4chan contains it to specific boards, while tumblr just whitewashes everything with it. Going on a board like /b/ will have a vastly different culture than /o/ or /ck/ [QUOTE=CAS303;45309226]What astonishes me is how pathetic and ill-informed these people were.

But they learned really quick that it was fucking pointless, tumblr just does not get it.
[QUOTE=Manibogi;45308863]I think he forgot to mention this in the video but the original #ShutDown4chan post was bait made by 4chan themselves which Tumblr took seriously, just like the original #EndFathersDay post.[/QUOTE] It came from /soc/, the reaction was taken up by /b/
Hahaha imagine if you killed yourself over 2 gifs. I've never heard this trigger warning thing before 2014. What's the deal with it? I'd get like war veteran PTSD and rape victims, but is this stuff really that common?

In one word, attentionwhoring. Just another way of doing it.

You can say "oh different types of boards" but it's still generally speaking the same kinds of people that visit those dumb sites
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;45309425]Yeah really. You can say "oh different types of boards" but it's still generally speaking the same kinds of people that visit those dumb sites[/QUOTE] No the cultures on boards like /co/ and /tg/ are not like /b/.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;45309425]Yeah really. You can say "oh different types of boards" but it's still generally speaking the same kinds of people that visit those dumb sites[/QUOTE] Pretty sure there's a difference between the people who visit /g/ and /fit/
i really wish people were able to make anti tumblr sj videos or whatever without sounding like utter tools every time someone posts a video by the guy in op i cringe at what a pompous cunt he sounds like kinda like this guy, he explains it well without sounding stupid or pretentious: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLEd5e8-LaE[/media]
[QUOTE=gokiyono;45309457]Pretty sure there's a difference between the people who visit /g/ and /fit/[/QUOTE] Well everybody is different when you get down to it, but if they truly were different kinds of people, they wouldn't both be visiting an image board.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;45309482]Well everybody is different when you get down to it, but if they truly were different kinds of people, they wouldn't both be visiting an image board.[/QUOTE] Boards like /tg/, /vg/ and /vr/ are pretty much self-moderated boards with a handfull of inhouse rules and are leagues away from boards like /v/ and /b/. Different boards for different people yes, but the appeal is the same.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;45309482]Well everybody is different when you get down to it, but if they truly were different kinds of people, they wouldn't both be visiting an image board.[/QUOTE] so people are cretins just because the kind of site they go to is an image board? lolk good reasoning there
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;45309482]Well everybody is different when you get down to it, but if they truly were different kinds of people, they wouldn't both be visiting an image board.[/QUOTE] You're telling me that a person who visits a technology board isn't different from a person that visits a fitness board because they are both image boards, or am I missing something?
4chan attracts toxic users as a whole. some select boards like diy or p aren't nearly as bad as v or a but they're still home to a ton of assholes
That poor girl who killed herself with an entire bottle of Flintstones vitamins.

That whole 'raid' was fucking hilarious. What I caught of it, it was one or two or three people posting extreme gore, then the tags got flooded with 1000+ 'recovery' posts. Then another gore picture. Followed by 1134234+ recovery posts, flooding the tags with unrelated content. It was glorious. I hope they do it again.

I guess their raid was successful.
