is 4chan really evil?

[5t3v0]

I'd say 4chan is more of a collective society, with differing morals, interests and beliefs. The anonimity doesnt help though, but you cant really call them all "Evil", just occasionally derranged and occasionally helpful. Being made up of tons of different people with different minds about everything you cant really predict what they will do next

Guns don't kill people, violence does!
4chan isn't evil, people are!

Do knives kill people, or do other people kill people?

Knives don't kill people, but they sure do help.

As someone who frequently visits the video game board on 4chan I can safely say that 4chan is not evil. At all.
People seem to "fear" /b/, when it really is just a board filled with hyperactive teens regurgitating the same old jokes until they become stale.
/b/ may have been an infamous place on the internet once, but those days are over. Now it's like fearing a dead lion because it was once a mighty beast.
Rules 1 and 2 were a reference to Fight Club taken way too seriously by people taking it out of context.

They REALLY REALLY REALLY help. So technically no. But they help. A lot. This arguement always annoys me. Do nukes kill people? No? NUKES FOR EVERY MAN WOMAN AND CHILD

OP: Nah, its a place of pure chaotic neutral. That tends to sway to evil.

They help, true, but they are not directly responsible.
The argument gets better, if you substitute knives with something more "neutral", such as a car.

And yes, 4chan is purely chaotic neutral. I wouldn't say it sways to evil. It's an epithomy (uh, spelling) of humanity.

No, it's entirely netrual.

They are like Pandora's Box, you don't know wather you'll be blasted with curse words and sent pics of bloody stumps that used to be limbs, or help track down someone who hurt a kitten or something.
