“But more than a half-dozen unnamed black witnesses have provided testimony to a St. Louis County grand jury that largely supports Wilson’s account of events of Aug. 9, according to several people familiar with the investigation who spoke with The Washington Post.”
basically i dont care if you drink smoke or do drugs as long as you can hold a conversation about something besides the fact that you drink smoke or do drugs
A lot of the people on 4chan will act like unapologetic assholes, but at least they’re not self-righteous about it. And, if shown legitimate proof of something, (based on what I’ve seen) they’ll usually accept it, whereas Tumblr prefers to pass around bogus statistics, and cling to emotional pleas, rather than logic.
4chan often behaves like idiots, but they’re aware that they’re behaving like idiots. That’s the whole point. People go there to be anonymous assholes on purpose. Meanwhile, Tumblr is filled with bullies and rejects that think they’re doing the world a goddamn favor by acting like snide, entitled little shit mongers.
4chan will call you a “faggot” regardless of gender/sexual identity, which appears to be generally understood to the point where no one even gives a shit anymore.
Tumblr becomes irrationally outraged when you somehow don’t already magically know the “preferred pronouns” of someone you hadn’t even heard of before, even when these “pronouns” are complete crocks of shit like “bunself”, or “princesself”. They then become indignant if you don’t fall to your knees and cater to every last one of their demented little demands, and treat them like the extra special little snowflake that they think they are.
4chan fields obvious inflammatory comments with relative ease, simply by dismissing them as stupid, humoring them for a laugh, or ignoring them from the start. When vitriol does happen, at least it’s mostly reserved to two morons having a witless tennis match of words while everyone else goads them on for the sake of entertainment.
Tumblr takes every goddamn thing as though it’s deadly fucking serious, to the point where people are afraid to voice their opinions on their favorite cookies, lest it somehow “offends” someone.
4chan will bust your nuts until you can prove a claim you’ve made.
Tumblr will gladly make viral the “news” that the sky has suddenly turned neon green, and is raining Nickelodeon Gak - if there’s enough of an emotional, impassioned plea to do so. Especially if they claim their “child” or “younger sibling” saw (and was upset by) this “incident”.
If you like something, and express it, 4chan will tell you it’s terrible just to piss you off.
Do this on Tumblr, and someone will claim you’re “oppressing them” simply because they don’t happen to like it. Then, through emotional manipulation, they try to spread the mindset that you’re somehow “scum” just for enjoying something that they don’t.
While I wouldn’t recommend it as a place to go to “have fun”, 4chan has actually become more welcoming than tumblr at this point.
And that’s just fucking sad.
Seriously? Tumblr isn’t perfect but 4chan ain’t a shining beacon of light either.
Being an unrepentant asshole - and proud of it - is better than not realizing you’re an asshole?
I completely understand that you need a thick skin on 4chan and everybody knows it, so any regular on 4chan is really unlikely to be hurt or insulted by anything. Which doesn’t mean 4chan is any kinder than Tumblr, it just means no one gets insulted by it.
Don’t forget when 4chan started a nationwide witch hunt for a suspect of the Boston Marathon bombing who turned out to be the wrong guy. Or the very specific sexual and death threats that drove Anita Sarkeesian from her house. Or that they’re currently threatening Emma Watson with releasing her private photos, solely because she gave a speech to the U.N. about feminism.
You’re saying this is all better than a Tumblr user getting mad at something you said and calling in some other Tumblr friends to make fun of you?
But 4chan knows they’re behaving like idiots. They know the threats aren’t serious. Everyone knows it’s all in good fun and you need to grow a thicker skin. NO YOU DON’T. These threats are serious, are being treated seriously, and are ruining actual non-internet lives.
You’re saying Tumblr prevents you from expressing yourself, while 4chan is literally sending death threats to women who are expressing themselves?
Yes, we are comparing the extremes of 4chan to the extremes of Tumblr. And the extremes of 4chan are far worse than those of Tumblr.
Looks like someone’s in desperate need of a reality check.
Sent thousands of cards, gifts, and letters to a 90 year-old WWII veteran’s birthday so he wouldn’t be alone.
Rigged a poll so that a $5000 grant was spent on a homeless shelter instead of new park benches in a Michigan Town.
Organized protection for families of deceased soldiers and Boston Bombing victims funerals being picketed by Westboro Baptist Church
Donated over 9000 meals to a food bank to feed the hungry
Raised over $4400 for charities to provide support services for Rape and Sexual Assault victims (which is $4400 more than any of the so-called “feminists” of tumblr).
Exposed an intentional public health violation and had the perpetrator punished.
Circulating false statistics about rape, and then literally becoming enraged when they find out that women aren’t being victimized as much as they were led to believe. Wow, that’s a super-healthy attitudes towards women. These are definitely the people I want standing up for my rights. NOT.
People on tumblr were the ones who CAUSED the “raid” on tumblr by trying to “#shutdown4chan”. 4chan became bored after a single night, while tumblr continued crying like babies, and making false claims that people on 4chan were “being arrested by the FBI”.
Meanwhile, the sane people of tumblr mocked the shit out of them for intentionally kicking the hornet’s nest, and then whining when they got stung.
