Nobody on 4chan would roast you for writing "Going to Africa. Hope I don’t get Aids. Just kidding. I’m white", they roast SJWs, feminists...

Quickly denouncing anyone who expresses certain sorts of opinions thus preventing certain sorts of discussion seems much the same to me regardless of which opinions it is aimed at.

The same occurs on these very boards. Everything looks copacetic when you're an insider.

4chan isn't really for discussion, though. It's for pictures, palaver and pissing matches.

And Twitter, with its 140 character limit, is for discussion? I've seen far more productive discussion on 4chan than on Twitter.
