4chan has about several hundred million clicks since its inception. The "n word" according to the 4chan archives has seen 125k daily usages. And 4chan sees a few hundred million unique IPs every month if the site statistics are to be trusted.

That's insane to me. How many people are racist in real life/hold these views? Tucker Carlson's head writer was recently fired for browsing 4chan. Imagine the influence this site has on people who browse it. I bet you Mark Zuckerberg has used 4chan, in fact I don't think there's anyone in tech who hasn't heard of 4chan. Just look at how many people are engineers, doctors, mathematicians in this board alone.

now that is a good question. /pol/ is definitely full of them. the problem is people have a tendency to collectivize and disregard human beings as individuals. i do blame the status quo for this. today everything is forced through the lens of race when it shouldn't be at all. there probably wouldn't be that many nazis and other assorted racists on this site if it wasn't for today's political climate. i do understand why they feel this grievance. there is only so much bashing a person can take based on their skin color but where they go wrong is to deny their individuality and see themselves as their skin color. blm makes this very same mistake. the only difference is blm is a racket and their idea of oppression comes from availability heuristic and misunderstanding that unequal outcome does not mean it is from oppression. this society treats black people like first class citizens with all manner of preferential treatments when it comes to admissions, and hiring, special protections.

Unfortunately, due to this place being pro free speech and anonymous, it also means that other parties will attempt to push their agenda on people that browse this site. (stormfront and /pol/).
The 2016 election was hilarious because there were no ideal candidates, and a lot of anons from other countries and American's that did not care about the result. It just so happened that along the way we upset some people that spilled their guts about lot of weird shady stuff.
So that's where it becomes a fascination. Even if it's completely bullshit.

what people hating on the people on 4chan forget is that the ages usually range between 16 and 25. Depending on where you are in terms of maturity, this means that the people on here are usually immature little shits that don't really care about much.
Usually the oldfags on here are very different in the way they interact with people.
The 2016 election stuff was done by most people in that age range and then boomers are the ones that took it all fucking seriously and start actual movements built around stupid memes some 17 year old made.

first of all, /pol/ is largely banter. barely anybody there is white, which should be your hint.

second of all, tucker carlson's writer wasn't fired over browsing /pol/, it was some conservative forum that tied back to his identity.

It's not about the website. Between 2008 and around 2014 (Gamergate), this site was on the whole kind of different. Post-Gamergate and /pol/, the average and median already-low IQ plummeted and every single thread became political. I like 4chan, but just not the (id-)/pol/ parts.

Bullshit. That used to be mostly true, but it's definitely grown more and more sincere and serious each year. The original 4channers there for shits and giggles gradually became proportionally smaller as the majority of the incoming waves are schizos and political nuts from elsewhere.

>barely anybody there is white, which should be your hint.
There's definitely some % of posters there who aren't white (I'm a socially liberal Jew and I post there sometimes), but I'd hazard a guess they're under 20% of active posters, and maybe even under 10%. I could be wrong, but it's almost certainly less than 40%, and definitely not "~barely anybody". And likely the majority of the non-white posters are far-right or adjacent.

That's what I mean with the boomers. schizo's or nuts are not the usual 4chan posting age.
The sociopaths that attempt to manipulate people into their ideology I would are actually dangerous, as to someone whom is 17 or so and perhaps isn't the brightest, can be convinced of bullshit if it's worded well and on face value, seems correct.

Proves jack shit. No clear indication of the total meetup population there, and the distribution of people who would attend a /pol/ meetup isn't necessarily representative of the board distribution. Also, that photo's at least 3 or 4 years old. Are there any of 2020 meetups?

/pol/ and 4chan in general was largely kayfabe, but around 2014 and 2015 it started to shift, and in 2020 I think it's highly likely it's more serious than unserious. If I were more autistic I would try to analyze it as objectively as possible through archive analysis but really, just look at the average thread there now. There's a reason they had to later create /bant/ separately.

I'd bet some money that at least 70% of the posters, whether or not they're posting ironically or hyperbolizing the extent of their views, still would generally be considered far-right or extreme-right. Compared to the past, a higher percentage of the people not posting sincerely are only exaggerating their earnest ethnonationalist and/or neo-fascist (or stronger) views, and a higher percentage are also just straight up posting sincerely. And I think the majority of the non-white posters would also sincerely identify with many ethnonationalist and far-right beliefs.

I have no idea what /pol/ 2020 is like as it went to complete shit all 2017 anyway.
All I remember is when I first went on /pol/ in 2015, it was actually not completely shit and there was some diversity of opinion. I would say that a lot of the interesting topics you would talk about on /pol/ have shifted to other boards. But then another thing happened where the nazi shitters followed those topics and for example, it seems 1/4 /his/ threads are about WW2 or some stoopid political post.
late 2016 was bittersweet, where yes, it was funny, but it irreversibly changed 4chan and how people deal with this site.

>The "n word" according to the 4chan archives has seen 125k daily usages

At one point, 4chan users were able to retrain the machine learning algorithm to accept the "n word" as an correct answer for literally EVERY CAPTCHA. It didn't matter what the captcha was, you could type in the correct letters/numbers sequence or just type in "n word" and they'd both work.

I'm not sure, but I think this may have affected every website that used the captcha service at that time. It only lasted for a month or 2 IIRC.

It sitll works and I still do it
You just need to select the audio captacha, the first word is for verifying purposes, the second and third (if there is a third) are the real test and what they collect (second and third words have to be different though)
example
>you listen shredded cheddar cheese
>you put shredded nigging niggers

Library genesis. There are two versions, one (apparently) a scanned print copy, the other digital. Neither one have that quote.

>When you were a kid you definitely weren't a racist
When I was about a year old, I cried like I was being murdered at a black man walking into an elevator with me and my mum. He wasn't even a thug. He was pretty well dressed from what mum says. I just hadn't seen a lot of blacks because I'm Australian.

Obviously mum was mortified because she had the racism socialised out of her, but a 1-year-old is too young to be indoctrinated.

The vast majority may start as a joke but now we see that the same majority also genuinely believes in those things. It's pretty obvious how stromfront and neonazis push their ides to lonely young guys here.
