    We don’t have a big corporation forcing us to suck every dick in the advertising industry. Old/edgy memes, porn, over the top arguments about politics, and unhinged content are the defenses against advertisers. Make it high risk and low profit and that keeps them from getting entrenched and ensharting.

    Be a brand risk or be sold to the brand. The reason 4chan remains “pure” is because they do the online equivalent of firing a gun out the window to lower property.

      nah I don’t think it’s that calculated. there’s nothing about loss that has anything to do with advertisers.

      also 4chan is a cesspool of nazis. doesn’t really work as a parallel.
