>Implying I’m not here for the retarded posts.

I'm here for the shitposting and occassional good posts. Plus theres some very specific topics which are better suited to discuss here, like historical porn.

>more serious forum ?
honestly, I know the people here aren't credentialed in general, and I'm not going to defend the intelligence of the masses on Veeky Forums
BUT
I find that this site is way more honest than other places and I appreciate that. sure there are better places to get facts from, but even the knowledgable people have reason to obsfuscate the truth for their own purposes. here however, everyone just says what they're thinking, and it's a pretty heady crowd desu senpai

I would just end up banned anywhere else after claiming that Pol Pot saved billions

Veeky Forums is comfy and steps on my balls for being a Byzaboo and I'm a masochist

If I actually want discussion, I find reddit unironically better.
Which kinda speaks to how far Veeky Forums has fallen.

>it's a /pol/ tries to get intelligent posters to leave so they can freely groom young boys into their retarded racism episode without getting BTFO thread.

this is like the second thread in two days like this.

The mods for /r/History are assholes, unfortunately. They'll delete posts for no reason (not even in a SJW way)

Otherwise, I'd agree with you. I want this board to be better than "/pol/ with dates".

This is, an interesting take.

It's quite sickening. I wish more people seriously saw it as the cult it is

My brain hurts from how retarded this site is. I'm glad there are people who agree with me on this.
It bothers me so much to know that the retarded shit people spew here is then repeated elsewhere. People base their worldview on dumb shit from this site. Sadly I find it outside of Veeky Forums...

I think you mean it's quite triggering.

Yes but we are the least retarded shit in a bigger pile of retarded shit.

Your meme is dead and your "movement" will hopefully be so soon

Because "serious forums" are for namefaggots.

Veeky Forums is actually low key a pretty intelligent board. There's some knowledgeable people that come here.

I think it's sort of in-built into history that eventually you need to provide sources and that kinda scares the p*ltards from getting into arguments, because they know they're going to get taken to school. So they just spam shit and run away, which you can just safely ignore.

>muh /pol/tards

While they are the most vilified group of brainlets here, let us not forget the:
-unironic Christians with their x-tier walls and retarded videos
-local racial theorists with their skull measurements and haplomemes
-anarchists of all varieties
-pagans aka "muh kike on a stick"

and last but not least, since I despise him, the Sil*sian

are you new by chance?

>even thinking about creating a reddit username and password
u r just as bad as them.

Serious, well-moderated forums aren't fun. I come here for the arguments with retarded stormfags.

>-anarchists of all varieties
Anarcho-Monarchism is GOAT

>If I actually want discussion

What did he mean by this?

It used to be ironic and for fun until the /pol/faggots came in

Veeky Forums is a visual/conceptual art forum

>implying /pol/ doesn't appreciate and cultivate the strengths of different communities to better fuel their meme machine.

You haven't been on /pol/ have you? It's make people better so that they take pride in themselves and cultivate pride. This is the first step to breaking out of the spirit of Nietsche's "Last Man"

>all these posts about muh /pol/fags
It seems to me that leftyfags are more common, though """nazis""" are present and need to be eliminated like all other socialists and communists.

Same. I'll read a book if I'm looking for academic content. You can't have serious debate over any forum because it requires typing pages worth of typing to express well structured arguments. I come here for dumb posts and occasional inspiration for reading material because I enjoy the honesty and lack of nuance.

I'm not sure how anyone reaches this type of conclusion. Other people all have plenty of reasons to twist the truth but not the honest people of Veeky Forums? One of the problems with places like Veeky Forums it can lead to people laboring under the delusion that it is full of honest critical freethinkers when the circulation of ideas is quite limited. Even when someone comes in with hot radical ideas they rarely go deeper then the most popular of the pop shit I've seen before.

I come here mostly out of habit. While I hate the "Veeky Forums is for shitposting" meme it lacks the pretension of other conceptualizations of Veeky Forums and closer matches the reality of it.

This place is about historical discussion, by in depth analysis and

It's a club not a society or research group. It's infotainment. The fact that you cannot recognize or appreciate this speaks volumes.

The beauty of Veeky Forums is you EXPECT everyone to lie. This forces you to gauge information based on merit rather than absorbing it all without filter.
Some real great insight is dropped on Veeky Forums if you're smart enough to see it.

They've turned /pol/ into a scape goat for all their internal issues. Give it a couple years and they'll be rounding you guys up into camps to gas you.

>you guys
Who am I?

/pol/ apologists

And who will be gassing me?

>you EXPECT everyone to lie
And why would you expect that? Veeky Forums is more than Veeky Forums crypto threads.

>This forces you to gauge information based on merit rather than absorbing it all without filter.
That doesn't follow. If you expected everything here to be lies you wouldn't take anything serious here just like the Enquirer. Nobody absorbs all information given to them without a filter. If they did nobody would ever complain about the news.

this

expect us.

i'm addicted and can't leave. i don't even post on any board, just lurking. save me.

Same tho. I only go on /b/ and /gif/ now for jerking off then right back to here. This board is truly the best on 4chin rn.

"/pol/" is "da joos" of every other board

This post does prove an important point though, the fact that its still up proves that the moderation is complete shit

Honestly /int/ is worse than /pol/

>What percentage of posts you find retarded on Veeky Forums
The absolute vast majority of them. Besides the stuff that's obviously bait, /pol/ or retarded in some other way, I see people frequently making arguments based on obvious misunderstands and ignorance. In general, unless someone posts a reputable source, or can indicate in some other way that they actually understand the subject, assume that no one on this board knows what they're talking about.

>Why are u still here?
I abandon this place for long stretches all the time when I get sick of it. For the most part, I come back because it can be a good place to kill time, and it's one of the few places I can be unfiltered about shit I'm educated in.

>Why don't you look for more serious forum ?
I don't need to, it's called work. My entire day is built around a relevant done seriously, so I sure as shit am not looking to do more of that on my off time.

>-anarchists of all varieties
Well, I'm an unfriending you.

>What percentage of posts do you find retarded on Veeky Forums ?
Zero percent (0%) are retarded.
>Why are you still here ?
History a laughing ass joke.
>Why don't you look for a more serious forum ?
Jokes (mods) are funny.

>Is Veeky Forums retarded?
Absolutely not! We're the best!

>literal stormfag shithole has it's own board to serve as a propaganda mouthpiece and evangelize across other boards
>but n-n-no! this place is infiltrated with lefttards!

If you think /pol/ is anything but the the dumbest intellectually and creatively bankrupt shitposting on Veeky Forums you must be an idiot.

>make people better so that they take pride in themselves and cultivate pride.

Generally speaking the people who think Veeky Forums is stupid are just incapable of comprehending anything above two layers of irony

>the people who think Veeky Forums is stupid are just incapable of comprehending anything above two layers of irony
DAS RITE!

>NONONO, Veeky Forums IS TOTALLY FINE, IT IS ALL JUST (You) DON'T UNDERSTAND MUH "irony"

There are (((people))) on Veeky Forums who "unironically" believe this....

Kill yourselves reddit niggers.

You can't honestly say that when shit like /v/ exists
