When did Jow Forums become a place for political extremists to hide in...

It was "politically incorrect", sure, but it was just as degenerate as Reddit, just acknowledging their degeneracy instead of defending it.

Basically after 2012 and Ron Paul's failed presidential run, Stormfront and other right-wing forums launched a huge coordinated and sustained conversation campaign on Jow Forums.

It was far worse than Reddit. This place has cleaned up its act a lot in the 13 years I've been here.

No gay voting system like reddit, and the ability to hide behind complete anonymity to voice your true opinions on things. I, for example, feel incredibly uncomfortable and uneasy around trannies. My gut tells me that something is wrong. I don't like them, and I want them to stay far away from me. Now, I can't voice that opinion in real life, or with my actual name or face tied to it; I could lose my job over those opinions. But here, behind the mask of anonymity, I can say anything I want, consequence free.
This site was never really "normal." It was originally an image board for weebs to jerk over Chinese cartoons. I started coming here around 10 years ago. I had heard about this vile website called Jow Forums, and wanted to see it for myself. I left quickly, but returned a few days later, and then a few days after that. Eventually, I never left.
Freedom of speech is important, and it gets quickly stifled elsewhere online, so it's refreshing to browse a site that allows all words and thoughts and for people to do shit just for the lulz. I really do unironically love this site, and all you faggots that post here. If the day comes when this is shut down, I'll truly be sad

everything about the stormfags is true
but the baseline for 'acceptable' has changed dramatically in the mainstream
what was once harmless is now the scum of the earth, and vice versa.

Anonymity and lax moderation.

Jare Diamon taught me that you need complicated coastlines to hide dissidents for civilisation. That means without Jow Forums we will all be savages.

Exactly. They started playing the "good guy" after /b/-day and the rise of the CIA astroturfed Anonymous movement, and even then, they were still leftist degenerates. There's a reason why "stormfag" was an actual organic slur here.

2007?

>hide in
Jow Forums was always outcasts but everything here is satire and if you fall for all the bait and actually care about anything including race you're a maximum pleb.

NIGGERS TONGUE MY ANUS

>when did peopke with politically incorrect views start using an anonymous board called politcally incorrect?
hmm not sure. pretty tough question OP

Anyone got the CNN screencap where they describe Jow Forums as a “far left site” involved with cp? This was way back in the day

FAR from normal. All the way from 2003. Again, Moot himself was a pedo jew.

It's an open platform for anyone to say exactly what they want without any consequences. Everyone is a faggot a nigger or a cunt which makes everyone equal.

When you couldn't defeat our arguments. Without controlled speech and a power structure, you're nothing.

Pretty much. Before that Jow Forums was Libertarian central. I remember the live posts from the Iowa caucuses from Ron Paul campaigners. Before those events racism was just one of many taboo subjects that was made fun off in an edgy manner but never in a serious way.

its always been a troll hangout but few people are rarely in the mood to say as much outright because its a troll hangout.
its like any shitty online game that appeals to autists but is geared primarily toward the griefer.

Litterally every single other major semi-anonymous site like Twitter, Reddit and so on have become so hostile to right-wingers that chans are the only refuge

That's a FOX screenshot

Pool's closed was a good example of that. They used swastikas and used black people with Afros, but they weren't unironically racist. It was just for lulz.

Here's the source. Though it's actually either 7chan or 711chan, they had /i/ as invasion.

>chans are the only refuge
kek, so you can come here to mkultra tier psychological warfare?
come on now, its like saying you read playboy for the articles

Jow Forums is essentially a massive honeypot giving you a false sense of anonymity (which is untrue because of the jewgle captcha) and freedom. Real truth gets either deleted or moved to Jow Forums.

This is the only online place where I can shit on niggers with complete strangers and get away with it.

>right-wingers that chans are the only refuge

No they used to have their home in shitty forums like Stormfront and co before they expanded into the chanz.

There's a shitload of right wingers on twitter, they just stay in their massive circles and rarely leave. Orthodox twitter is a great place.
Keep in mind I'm not talking about "skeptics" and their maga followers.

based leaf, he gets it. saved

Catholic/Orthodox Twitter is a giant joke. Most of them are ex-atheists who study theology but don't act any different because they don't actually have faith or follow the Bible. They just say "well, the Old Testament was overturned therefore we can be as degenerate as we want but hey, Deus Vult, crusaders!"

No, Jow Forums was never a place for normies. when /b/ was its flagship board, from 2005-2008(some would argue 2009/2010 but it was the chanology raids that killed /b/) were its golden years, and it was always an ocean of piss but it was the spawning point for memes, numerous raids and doxing campaigns. /b/ had alot of national socialists at the time but everyone thought they were just trollin when they said hitler did nothing wrong. golden years /b/ was proto-Jow Forums
t. oldfag

>Orthodox twitter is a great place.
Literally a bunch of cringey Nu-males LARPing and treating their 'religion' as a creepy fashion-statement like a dead face mask.

It's called politically incorrect you retard, 90% of us are trolls. 10% are easily brainwashable liberals who you idiots keep sending over.

look mate I like to sperg about jews and the evils of the internet as much as the next guy but we're all frens here and no one actually gives a fuck about this shitty website.

oldfags have convictions sure, but they're still trolls and 9/10 they're just going to try and piss you and several hundred other anons off with the lowest effort bait possible while you call them shills and don't get it for the billionth time.

A bunch of weird events formed a chain, then a snowball effect that turned into an avalanche of weird all over your FaceSpace.

Before my time as a poster on pol I used to browse sexy beautiful women. I am such a God Damned Autist that I didn't even know you could post here without signing up for several years (yes, I am THAT fucked up in the head but I see patterns in speech and behavior like spotting carnival barkers in a crowd of marks so there's a trade off to my disorder. I'm undiagnosed and SSRI medicine is not my cup of tea. I view this way of seeing the world as "normal.")

It's about 2014 when I figure out I can post on pol without registering and I feel like a kid in a candy store. I'm also dangerously black pilled at this point in my life and close to hurting myself. A major screw up in the stock market has led me to question why I live and why nothing ever gets better. I have lived a miserable and abused existence, hopelessly out of touch with normal society but always having the ability to recognize patterns in speech and behavior that few people comprehend.

I banter for a while trying to wake up whites to their demographic replacement. Then Trump starts giving the Liberals fits in 2015 and I see a new fun game. Get Trump into the White House. For shits and giggles. I was not paid to Trump post, I did it for fun. I did not expect him to win. He did! The Liberal I grew up around (I used to be one myself,) are beside themselves with grief and I feel like a whole new man. Then Charlottesville happens. The Liberals I know have twisted looks of agony on their faces and I can see how their train is heading for a broken bridge. I start predicting when the Boomers will die off. The most likely theory is the late 2030's to 2050. I begin telling everyone about this prediction. I watch as the media subtly changes in part due to the work that I and others have done on pol.

All because we were blackpilled.

There are no political extremists here. The extremists are all on hate chan. Jow Forums is a bunch of incel neets who aren't willing to make changes and be examples in their communities and instead just jerk off to anime tiddies all day.

this.
the georgian is obviously some newfag retard that washed up here in 2008 (after the cancer had metastasized).

Stop LARPing. They weren't "national socialists", they were ironically being "Nazis" and throwing around swastikas, joking about the Lolocaust, but they weren't honestly against the jews like Jow Forums.
They were atheist libertarian LARPers and overall a bunch of degenerates and reprobates.

holy shit brro thats some nice anime tang

>Was there a time when it was truly normal?

NORMALFAGS FUCK OFF

It's called politically incorrect you retard, 90% of us are trolls. 10% are easily brainwashable liberals who you idiots keep sending over.
Fuck off our site. Refugees not welcome here.

this is as fucking stupid as those fags posting one reddit post as proof that we are being co-opted by trannies.

Jow Forums was always contrarian to most mainstream opinions and news became the way it is much for the same reasons

>Jow Forums
>honest
its impossible to take any argument for actual extremism seriously

This is such a shit meme. No, stormfront never invaded Jow Forums, most of them are just boomers that do not even know what 4vhan is.

Ahh yes, but their posts are shadowbanned and algoritms make sure their content never enters the left's similar bubble
Here, any post worth attention gets its yous and threads with lots of posting stays on the frontpage

The same goes for every social media site, only difference is that algoritms don't control what I see, only the intensity of posters and replies

As if knowledge and the spread of actual information badly covered by mainstream media is nazi-tier.
I mean, we have somewhat impartial news here, hence why the anti-immigrant party got 21% of the vote in 2015, but when I look at the narrow field of sites like BBC or CNN or even FOX I can understand why real news has to be posted outside those venues, and twitter stuff gets shadowbanned and algoritms get ever worse in skewing perceptions.

When you are here, you realise that all news is propaganda and we can spend days dissasembling the "truth"

This, Stormfront seems to be a more serious website to discuss white nationalism, funnily you can get banned for saying "nigger" on the boards because the jannies on sf think that using racial epithets and swear words is the "negrofication of the white language" which to be fair has an element of truth in it. Also I think sf is all but dead now.

2016 oldfag here, Jow Forums used to be a pro-trump, pro-israel website but then CTR and shareblue spread anti-semitism and national socialism on here
also i think before then Jow Forums was just some website from 2008 about porn and stuff lol

They do though. Or else we wouldn't have people like Tarrant etc.
People post both on 4 and 8/pol/. Look at their filenames.
No, I'm literally saying the truth here. /b/ was degenerate, sure, they LARPed as "Nazis" but they weren't even serious about it.

fpbp

see its stuff like this that fuels newfag paranoia
1. sage does nothing at all except out you as a new fag, sage in all fields where your name is sage is just embarassing
2. Off topic/ not political is also bullshit because just like /b/ Jow Forums mods can just ban you for any reason including spite, the lulz, or no reason whatsoever. Anyone who has been here long enough has been b& randomly for completely bs reasons even if they've been nice and followed board standards
3. trying to save the world on a goddamn shitposting forum.
even if you think Jow Forums is a good vehicle for your ideas you still have to tailor your message for the platform, which is dominated by stupid bullshit like Belle Daphne threads.

VICEfag spotted.

Their "contrarianism" was basically like anarchism. Not contrarian in a good way.

see just look at this and how obvious it is,
what kind of retard would you have to be to take this bait seriously.

What a fucking faggot, Jow Forums is supposed to be a place where anyone can hide in, if you don't like anyone being able to say what they want then go back to your echo chamber platform.

>I'm literally saying the truth here.
you're talking bullshit my man. what sort of de-radicalization campaign are you workin on here.

you're probably a 2018 "newfag" or ctr, but you don't remember the 2016 golden age when trumpmania was everywhere

Based. This KILLS the normalfag.

For no de-radicalisation platform. In-fact, if anything, I'm radicalising people even more.

>(((normal)))
not by your standards

>When did Jow Forums become a place for political extremists to hide in?
So I take it you were not here before politics became a popular subject. I can't narrow down the year but I remember it use to be a place where people just let their guard down and had fun.
I'd say it all started because Jow Forums users started doing shit that coincidentally fucked with people who were political and trying to force change [ie, fucking tumblr who was trying to change the internet into some pussified system] People heard about the edgy cool kids,came here.

This board may have been pro-Trump, but it was never pro-Israel.

you must be a newfag from post-2016, when the "hiromoot" created in 2008 it was just a porn website but he made it a forum in 2015 and then trump supporters captured it but CTR sent their shills to promote white nationalism and anti-semitism :)

2011 was the big shift. Newfags took the Stormfront/Bugswarm shilling seriously and here we are now.

How stupid are you to actually take that bait? It's so obvious it isn't funny.

rare flag, what is that country? are you from africa?

because they became the niche that didn't have a voice. political tensions heightened and nerdy anime fans didn't need to hide as much because it was becoming more accepted while other political niches were driven into anonimity

False premise, kindly fuck off rabbi

>Jews rape kids. An ex Israeli PM visited Epstiens Island. Don't get slid by useless cunts like OP goys.

>hiding
We aren't hiding, we go wherever free speech is allowed and wrong think isn't deleted.

Racism has ALWAYS been the norm on this site. With the exception of antisemitism which is largely due to barely sentient mentally ill Jews shilling on this site and shitting it up for at least 10 years.

>T.old fag

please reply to my bait, i am lonely and just want friends ;-;

For fuck’s sake, you MAGAtards are dense motherfuckers aren’t you?

You really do need to get our more, your powers of observation are truly dead

Again, stop responding to such obvious bait.

>Hide
Oh sweetie nobody is hiding

Ive been here since 2004, I'm an actual old fag unlike (((you))) I can conclusively say this site has NEVER been pro Israel.

There's too many of us old/original fags for you to get away with lying like that.

Magical Sempai is c-tier animu, my man.

Nope, they started on /b/

Jow Forums didn't exist in 2004, ctr shill

Also /tv/ and doubtless other boards.

If you were an oldfag, you wouldn't actually respond to bait so obvious.
>Kekistan flag
>Pro-Trump pro-Israel
>Hiromoot created in 2008 as porn website
How so?

It started in 2003, it was Jow Forums that didn't exist. Unironically take your meds kike
