This was an escape route, a way of never having to admit to your peers that you were in fact expressing something from your heart, in other words - that you were indeed vulnerable. Like (by comparison the tame and sophisticated precursor) "Something Awful" board that spawned it, 4chan defined itself by being insensitive to suffering in that way only people who have never really suffered can - that is to say, young people, mostly young men, protected by a cloak of anonymity. People had so much fun using it, threads became ephemeral, growing wildly within seconds, then disappearing minutes later, pushed out of the way and into oblivion by new threads and so forth ad infinitum 24/7. Perhaps the most appealing part for users was that you didn’t have to make an account. Users began referring to each other by that name. Also like adolescent boys, 4chan users were deeply sensitive and guarded. As someone who has witnessed 4chan grow from a group of adolescent boys who could fit into a single room at my local anime convention to a worldwide coalition of right wing extremists (which is still somehow also a message board about anime), I feel I have some obligation to explain.



1, "Don’t talk about 4chan". All the rules had a Lord of the Flies vibe to them, that is to say, they were very obviously created by a bullying and anarchic society of adolescent boys - or at least, men with the mindset of boys - particularly lonely, sex starved man-boys, who according to their own frequent jokes about the subject, lived in their parents’ basement. Before 4chan’s dispute with Scientology it had banded together for practical jokes they had called "raids". To answer it, we must look a little closer at 4chan’s system of values. To those with a passing knowledge of 4chan it’s strange to think of it having a value system. I used to think I was going mad, and ask myself, 'How can I prove anything? The site has many young and experienced models, who can soothe your mood. And indeed it did try its mightiest to be nihilistic, to hate, to deny, to shrug, to laugh off everything as a joke like all teenage boys do (the board was mostly young men). In fact, a 2010 study of cyberbullying found more than 97 percent of young people in the United States have some sort of Internet connection, which is a different measure than owning the technology.



Then I saw 4chan was meeting, not in Baltimore, best teen pornstar but a few blocks from my apartment in New York, in fact, in many cities around the world. Some people turn to this virtual world because they do not want to face life and solve their problems.

They were obsessed with Japanese culture and, naturally enough, there was already a term for people like them in Japan, hikikomori - meaning "pulling inward, or being confined" - teens and adults who withdrew from society into fantasy worlds constructed by anime, video games, and now the internet. This meant generally posting pornography, swastikas, racial slurs, and content that reveled in harm to other people. This meant that there was another more serious component in the protest. If someone gets more interested in someone, he or she can call him or her in a secret and solitary chat room to have private conversation with his or her likeminded person. Regular intake of medicines can negatively affect a man's ability to delay orgasm during sexual intercourse.



If you are a proud owner of a business or enterprise you can slash down the expenses on the repair and maintenance part of your server and Best Teen Pornstar IT infrastructure. Terms like "win" and "epic" and "fail" were all created or popularized on 4chan, used there for years before they became a ubiquitous part of the culture. The Scientology "protest" was also in large part a "raid". Could they actually destroy Scientology? Videos were made directed at Scientology pretending "Anonymous" was a shadowy and powerful cabal, something akin to Hydra from Marvel comic books. Why this group of nerdy boys had pivoted from meeting at my local anime convention and goofing off to protesting Scientology is an interesting question. The economic downturn of 2008 didn’t help, and in job interviews I found it difficult to explain why I hadn’t been working. More than 250 Australian paedophiles paid more than $1.3million to watch children being sexually abused in live-streams from The Philippines, a report has found.
