Sites like 4Chan and Reddit, etc. are hopelessly shrouded by violently racist, misogynist, homophobic and transphobic sociopaths. Said people also cannot cope with reality the same way the worst of Tumblr cannot cope with reality.

On one hand I've seen intellegent conversations and debates on some parts of 4chan, on the other hand even those threads usually draw in a few racists, misogynists, homophobics and transphobic sociopaths who may or may not be simply trolling...
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

The more loudly someone proclaims and takes pride in the fact that they're a skeptic, the less likely they are to be anything but arbitrary skeptics.

In other words, you're skeptical of skeptics :P

People who spend their time getting riled about pointless internet scandals everybody will forget in a year on the outside are the embodiment of "first world problems".

I'm suspicious who overuses words and phrases like "Social justice warrior" "Radflake" "tumblrina" and "nipple-waffler"

The best way to judge a someone in a fandom is how well they take sly digs at there fandom.
Those who go into "Not all fans" mode when they hear a joke at their fandom's expense are gonna be assholes.

I'd be impressed to find anyone who overuses "radflake", considering there's like five people who have ever used it at all.

No. No one must think about them ever.

I suppose I should clarify my earlier point. I wasn't saying anyone who mocks "Superwholocks4socialjustice" is scum, I was referring to people who call anyone who challenges their sexist, transphobic worldview an "SJW"

Now that I think of it I already covered this before.

Reading me rag on 4Chan in this post is amusing now because of my current avatar, being the unofficial mascot of the site.

It is also amusing that - said this before and will say it again - the titular little girl from a sweet, inoffensive little series of slice of life manga (and the very few I consider worth reading because it's the very few I can even bear touching and not want to gag) is the unoffical mascot of a site usually full of said "shut-in sociopaths".
