Mainly the likes of /b/, /pol/, /lgbt/, /r9k/, most (not all) of the porn boards, /soc/, /v/, /vg/, /vt/, and /g/. Everything else is either value neutral if you're judicious about it or can actually be a net positive influence (places like /n/ and /fit/ especially) -

its not as good nowadays but like, any niche board on 4chan feels like a gold mine compared to the rest of the site. even if its mostly arguments about gear and homesteading
oh and yuru camp, obviouslysnacks likes this. -

iced depresso (icedquinn@blob.cat)'s status on Thursday, 08-Aug-2024 03:01:10 JST iced depresso @allison @arcana @naaksit I don't think people end up in places like r9k by accident.
the social fabric just doesn't exist anymore. I don't think it's as simple as just blaming the internet. The CIA sociopath class has been systematically atomizing people since it's inception and we have academics studying how ever since 1942 the USA has self destructed socially -

iced depresso (icedquinn@blob.cat)'s status on Thursday, 08-Aug-2024 03:05:07 JST iced depresso @allison @arcana @naaksit I watched a YouTuber called LateBlt in ages past. He wanted to go to Europe forever but could never get past the social locks. His company sent him to Russia and he was like I guess this is close enough.
When he came back to posting he was floored what it was like to live somewhere that had people working crossing booths, and when asked why the computers don't do it the response was well what would those people do for jobs then?
The guy almost had a nervous breakdown witnessing the concept of civilization instead of treating everyone like expenses to be cut at the earliest possibility.
you can turn off the nightmare rectangle but people here are just shit bags it doesn't help as much ss you think -
