    Are you telling me that 4Chan's owners have names and addresses?

        Isn't that a Utah Phillips reference?

            Not much different from people not realizing that a cover song is a cover song and was actually written by somebody else. People conflate "where something originated from" and "where I first heard it from" pretty easily.

            4chan is not as creative as people imagined to be, in fact they're honestly not that much clever than reddit; which is also much more influential than people like to admit. The problem is 4chan is so heavily mythologized in the internet as this omniscient-omnipotent boogeyman that gave them a rather outsized influence on culture.

        4chan has gotten less reactionary already. It's still pretty bad, the line has moved from like 100% reactionaryness to like 95%, but it has noticably moved. If even that place is moving at all I think it's a good sign for where everyone else is.

            We shouldn't, and I'm not saying we should, but the fact that even 4chan is moving left should give you a bit of hope. It's not even from some dumb targeted meme campaign, it's just passively happening due to connections with wider culture not being entirely one way.

          why do you think that?
