>Mary Elizabeth Williams [Follow]

Actually, we should flip the narrative on them and point out how Hillary spent six million on internet trolls, and she is the one fostering hateful people on the internet.

It's the truth, she's paying people to lie and bully.

It's straight out of Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals", label / freeze / isolate / polarise. It won't work though, so far they have basically tried to claim that all Trump supporters are secret white nationalists led by a neo-Nazi cartoon frog, which obviously isn't credible. I agree we shouldn't describe ourselves as alt-right though, it's such a vague and broad term that it has no real meaning.

>Removed

How fucking new are these people? I bet they started using internet every day in 2007 or afterwards. These faggots probably use the internet only so they can post their feelgood shit on their social media hugbox groups. Now when they are being challenged 'in their own territory', they start to bitch about it how muh trolls are ruining muh internet. These niggers don't know that now they are given a dose of the internet they distanced themselves from. Pure uncensored opinions and feelings and shit.

The worst thing about them is that they call themselves digi-natives or some shit like that just because they jumped the social media bandwagon when it became a thing. People like me who have used the internet since the 90s know that the internet was very different place before kikebook and twatter. And people like me despise these fags because they think they own the internet now. Internet is not just your social media. Internet is used by people to voice their own honest and uncensored opinions, and that's how it should be. No amount of crying should ever change that.

Not only that, these are the same idiots who completely bought into the whole "share culture" championed by social media sites, and began willingly putting every minor tidbit of their boring mundane lives online. And when some random 12 year old on the other side of the world uses their public info to fuck with them they start calling for action to stop these awful trolls who ruined what they believe to be their safe space.

I always feel so superior to these faggots

Theres all sorts of shit they dont know.

Like, there's a thread over at /vg/ about space trading games where the internets first major shitposter sometimes shows up, a guy who stirred up such a huge shitstorm in the nineties that it has its own wikipedia article. I just fucking googled it and it shows up in legit academic papers

Literally last night's South Park episode

>Why don't they realize this
A single voice of disagreement is just some "loser" who lives in his mom's basement.

When more than one voice argues with them, suddenly it's some splinter cell of ex Navy Seals coordinating a cyber gorilla warfare.

The intent for both statements is the same, marginalize the disagreement and feel good about it. They can ignore "a single loser" because his lonely opinion doesn't matter. And they can also ignore thousands of "trolls" because they're covert FSB intelligence officers so it's important to never succumb to their elite tactics.

At no point will they EVER concede that the "trolls" are actually just people that disagree with them. That many people, if not most people, disagree with them. This isn't a statement they could shrug off, it would carry too much dissonance.

I just say stupid things and debate topics which i could never discuss anywhere else, i don't think i have ever said anything horrible anywhere else on the internet, and even here it was just going with the flow of the board.

>“When people talk about free speech online, they’re often referring to the very cartoon, weak version of what free speech is actually about,” Whitney Phillips told me. “The spirit of free speech is preserving the greatest amount of speech for the greatest amount of people. That’s the ideal. The problem with notions of free speech that privilege the voices of the antagonist, [is that they] create an environment in which there is actually less speech….The fact of the matter is that they’re not championing free speech on the whole. They’re championing their own speech and their own ability to do whatever they want without having to answer to anyone. They feel threatened because it could potentially take away their ability to do whatever they wanted. In defending that, they get the spirit of the thing totally false.”

Look at this horseshit paragraph.

agreed. In my opinion, the internet is far safer than it was 5, 10 years ago. All the sketchy criminal shit has gone to tor. Antivirus and software updates are all super easy and effective. Your odds of seriously getting fucked by someone or something have drastically dropped.

The "internet" that these idiots are referring to is nothing but social media. These idiots are literally serving themselves up on a platter to get fucked with by people by simply being on the site with their real identities.

If the rise of social media has revealed one thing (plus putting a smartphone in everyone's pocket, most of these faglords are phone users only) it is that the vast majority of people are incredibly stupid and narcissistic to the core.

Notice the lack of examples of enemy arguments or her own counter arguments? It would be best to inform people on how to counter troll arguments themselves, right? But somehow these common and easily refuted talking points aren't worth mentioning.

I didnt know that full grown adults get so triggered by us white boys on the internet for our satirical humor.

They dont want us doing anything IRL and they dont want us saying meanie stuff on the internet.

I mean look how powerful we are. Im flattered, really.

You have to admit leaf, meme magic is a powerful thing

This coming from a board that routinely fantasizes about genociding minorities and brown people is just fucking insane. You fags are really going to harp on your enemies wanting to kill you when you explicitly post things like that 24/7 on this fucking board?

The cognitive dissonance on this godawful board is sickening.

The internet used to be much more dangerous when it was less regulated and the spaces people shared on it less secure. 15 years ago it was common sense to never share any real world information about yourself in a public forum, meanwhile these pansies on twitter post their life stories for everybody to read on facebook and other social media. They literally have no idea what sort of culture the "trolls" grew up in. My outlook on the internet is radically different because I remember when it was the fucking wild west and you had to actively protect yourself from harm. These lazy shitheads are so used to their walled gardens and real life persistent identities they have no clue how to deal with any form of antagonism.

Who was 4chins sold to?

Hillary will try to censor the Internet by pushing for an online ID to use websites

Too many stories like this keep popping up.

No one can say anything anymore. Everyone is tight lipped and scared everywhere they go. Leftists are a farce and a disgrace. Hypocrisy that precariously balances along a thin line of idiocy on one side and evil on the other. Just disgusting. As is all the hills they choose to die on. Killing babies, faggotry/sodomy, Islam, niggers, anarcho-tyranny. Leftists are putrid scum.

>A 2014 Daily Dot article recounts how members of the subreddit r/Blackladies were inundated with horrifying messages from racist trolls. Volunteer moderators of the group had to delete those messages one by one, even as new threats and insults flooded in, an experience that left them “exhausted and demoralized.”

O fucking swear social media and normies ruined the internet. Maybe it was even AOL, but I remember way back when people on the internet could handle the bants.

Now, though, the influx of special snowflakes who were never told they're pieces of shit the way we were growing up, have tried to ruin what makes the internet great.

How do we come up with a solution for people who want to kill us except match it with superior violence? Love and tolerance isnt working, as we observe every day around the world.

Can't live in a safe bubble forever.

Fuck you putrid motherfucker. Dozens of cities and places across the country are fucking no-go zones because of niggers. Theft, beatings, rape, murder. Fuck you. Sit on your hands and shut your fucking mouth or get steamrolled - we are taking this country back - it's ours.

Because they are fucking evil. They support it because that's what they are. They support criminal niggers because that's who they are. They don't care that half the country's cities are high-risk kill zones because that's what they want.

The only solution for them is death. You need to kill them, because they are killing you. If you're not ready to kill then stop thinking about this and move on.

That means that if you go ahead and ‘take the bait,’ you essentially have brought that upon yourself. You should know better that nothing on the internet should be taken seriously. You should know better that people are behaving playfully and that when they do they are not responsible for their own actions. They are teaching you a lesson. You should be thanking them.”

How stupid could these people possible be? The answered there own question.

I look at it this way.

The internet, for years, was the back alley of society where rejects and outcasts spent a lot of time because they felt shunned or ostracized by the real world.

Then, here come these fuckers who didn't really know the unwritten rules and codes of the internet. All their lives, they were never questioned, never told they were wrong, never criticized, and never lambasted for anything they said.

The latter group has grown and grown while the former has essentially stayed the same. People like us are now the minority; the people who grew up with the internet, the people who were hardened on it.

They're literally trying to move into the neighborhood we've been living in all of our lives and trying to make change or make us outright leave.

They're the immigrants who want to push their culture on us rather than adapt to ours.

Racist and sexist much, shitlord?

>We need restrictions on speech to protect those with weak constitutions

That right there is when the paragraph flips upside down and the repeat the last half backwards

They have the gall to say shit like this while the left can print whatever they want in their main stream media outlets. Even as they censor and cast out people who they don't agree with from their curated communities they pretend like they're the ones being victimized, all because somebody dared to have an opinion they don't like and they can't find a way to refute it.

That's what their ultimately scared of. Opinions they can't ignore and can't argue against, scared of what they imply. Even with all the media at their beck and call they STILL feel terrified of people who are so maligned and shunned by society they can only voice their opinions on anonymous spaces of the internet.
