Is that a trend on 4chan?

Yes belittling women is a trend on 4chan

Well then, they don’t sound very nice over there.

It’s the 'tism mostly, compounded by basement living.

They’re not really all misogynist and racist right? It’s just a joke? Right?

4chan is comprised of different boards. When you hear about 4chan, it is most likely from the /b Board which is the “anything goes” board with pretty much zero moderation. Other boards are better.

Definitely not zero moderation. That wouldn’t last long these days.

The legal minimum of moderation, or close enough to it to get by.

Honestly, once upon a time 4chan was pretty liberal and anarchist. They protested Scientology even. That is definitely no longer the case.

Once the fucking Nazi types figured out extremely bare minimum lax moderation meant they could use slurs with abandon and still be okay, the use of slurs quickly turned from a “we hate everyone” in-joke to a “no, we legitimately hate you inferior races” bent extremely quickly.

There are still boards that aren’t total garbage, but the site overall is kind of a shadow of itself in its heyday and now users spend as much time posting Qanon garbage and legit Anti-Semitic hate threads on every board as it used to spend being funny. Honestly really sad.

It started as a joke but the joke attracted people who actually think like that and took it at face value.

Sexism? Absolutely. Self-awareness? Not so much.

4chan is where incels were born.

A true 4channer compliment would have also included her race

Honestly, it seems to me he realizes he fucked it up, and the fact he blames 4chan suggests some level of self-awareness. I really hope he logged off that wretched site and apologized to the woman.
