Members of 4chan's /pol/ board, the hotbed of the alt-right, are pretty active in Britain, as the conspiracy theories around Grenfell Tower fire and the terror attack at Ariana Grande concert show.

But this time they have stepped up their game.

Hackers from /pol/ claimed responsibility on 4chan for breaking into a billboard in the heart of Cardiff's busy shopping district and using it to broadcast swastikas, images about Islam, a Big Brother message from George Orwell's 1984 and a photo of Donald Trump as alt-right meme Pepe the Frog.

Hate speech is free speech.

[fieldmarshaldj]

“Hate speech” = Truth. Nothing flips the left out more than truth.

How are those “hate”? Someone’s panties are in a bunch.

[Enchante]

IT MUST HAVE BEEN PUTIN.....

[Little Ray]

Poor things.
Did a bunch of girlymen get triggered and have to run for their safe spaces?

[montag813]

There is absolutely NO “hate” whatsoever in those images

[Kommodor]

Hahaha, cute.

4chanpol is the little boy in church who points and says loudly during the dead calm after a hymn, to the shrill, obese song bird in the choir who takes great pride in her voice:
“Your singing hurts my ears, and you’re fat!”

Is 4 Chan really racist?

[SauronOfMordor]

Is 4chan racist? I don’t think so. Are there people on 4chan that you would consider racist? Yes. Are there people on FR who you would consider racist? Probably. Does that make FR racist? I don’t think so.

Then again, much depends on who gets to define racism. For some, it is racist to point out that, by FBI statistics, blacks commit about 50% of all homicides and armed robberies.

What do you consider racist?

[Dead Corpse]

4chan is alt-right?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....

They've got the whole spectrum covered. Alt-right to alt-left. Autistic to schizophrenic. Full-on anarchy.

Take it a little further. If we accept that "racism" actually exists, the next question is "is it truly wrong (immoral)?" If, for example, racism is defined as believing that different races have different qualities and characteristics (and then, of course, acting on that belief, such as believing that American blacks are more likely to commit crime so you watch them more carefully when they're around you), then why would that be wrong? If you harbored such hatred against a particular race that you were murdering them, that would be wrong, but it would be wrong because it is murder, not because it is racism.

The problem we have today is that the leftwing cultural marxist types have managed to convince everyone that being reluctant to rent your house to a race known for trashing houses, or clutching your purse a little tighter and crossing the street when encountering members of a certain race at night is exactly the same as rounding up members of a particular race and massacring them in death camps. For that matter, they've gone as far as managing to convince some people that putting members of a certain race in jail for crimes they commit, or even accusing them of a crime they've committed against you, is racism equal to death camps.

In any case, white people are the only people, under the current system, who are not allowed to have pride in their race, nor take steps to protect and support their own race. No other race is accused of "racism" for doing these things. That should tell you what the true purpose of the concept of "racism" is.
