Even on &amp;#x2F;pol&amp;#x2F;, within a thread there will often be dissenters from the normal far-right average poster. Compared to other sites like Reddit where communities and posters with certain viewpoints are straight up banned, it&amp;#x27;s a breath of fresh air.</text><parent_chain><item><author>pcbro141</author><text>In order list of threads from browsing &amp;#x2F;pol&amp;#x2F; for people who want to know how &amp;#x27;diverse&amp;#x27; it is without visiting:&lt;p&gt;- Anti-vax&lt;p&gt;- Anti-gay parents&lt;p&gt;- Goose&lt;p&gt;- Ben Shapiro praise thread with a dash of anti-semitism and a whole lot of &amp;quot;i hope all ni**rs die&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;- Praising George Floyd mural vandalism&lt;p&gt;- Anti-transgender&lt;p&gt;- Praising white nationalism&amp;#x2F;white ethnostate&lt;p&gt;- Praising &amp;#x27;national rape day&amp;#x27;&lt;p&gt;- Anti-Islam&lt;p&gt;- Anti-race mixing&lt;p&gt;- Illuminati&lt;p&gt;- Celebrating police shooting blacks&lt;p&gt;- British royals news&lt;p&gt;- Anti-mask, anti-Biden&lt;p&gt;- Silver&lt;p&gt;- Anti-liberal white women as betrayers of the white race&lt;p&gt;Keep in mind I just am reading the threads in order.

In the same way WallStreetBets wasn&amp;#x27;t making fun of the mentally handicapped, it would be dangerous to take any chan at face value.&lt;p&gt;Shibboleths exist to exclude people outside the subculture stereotype - and a good way of doing that is to be offensive. Some subcultures desire to remain as subcultures.&lt;p&gt;Part of why shibboleths work is because we as a species tend to stop engaging rationally the moment we feel attacked - we switch to being defensive and actually entrench our own values further.&lt;p&gt;The 4chan shibboleth attacks everyone. No matter who you are or how you identify you&amp;#x27;re going to be debased and mocked openly - that&amp;#x27;s kind of the point.</text><parent_chain><item><author>pcbro141</author><text>In order list of threads from browsing &amp;#x2F;pol&amp;#x2F; for people who want to know how &amp;#x27;diverse&amp;#x27; it is without visiting:&lt;p&gt;- Anti-vax&lt;p&gt;- Anti-gay parents&lt;p&gt;- Goose&lt;p&gt;- Ben Shapiro praise thread with a dash of anti-semitism and a whole lot of &amp;quot;i hope all ni**rs die&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;- Praising George Floyd mural vandalism&lt;p&gt;- Anti-transgender&lt;p&gt;- Praising white nationalism&amp;#x2F;white ethnostate&lt;p&gt;- Praising &amp;#x27;national rape day&amp;#x27;&lt;p&gt;- Anti-Islam&lt;p&gt;- Anti-race mixing&lt;p&gt;- Illuminati&lt;p&gt;- Celebrating police shooting blacks&lt;p&gt;- British royals news&lt;p&gt;- Anti-mask, anti-Biden&lt;p&gt;- Silver&lt;p&gt;- Anti-liberal white women as betrayers of the white race&lt;p&gt;Keep in mind I just am reading the threads in order.
