The Meme Flags Are Ruining /pol/

The people using the new meme flags are probably the same retards who were using a proxy to post as a Canadian in the first place.

Actual Canadians won't hide their flag.

Nah I like it this way.

Actually Canadians already are doing that, that was one of the very first developments and also one that was the most consistent since the change.

>>129949189
No, they don't. It is significantly less transparent this way. It is much easier to hide behind any flag and misrepresent your views. It is objectively less useful this way, with more flaws and weaknesses to an already unstructured board.

/pol/ was vastly superior when it had no flags at all. Make this board like the rest of 4chan again where each post is totally anonymous.

If you want "context" to posts then clearly this is not the right website for you.

I've been asking for ideology flags back for years.

Personally I would have preferred if it displayed both the location and the ideology choice, but this works too.

You dislike the identitarianism.

>>129949841

I'm so tired of these newfags acting like they represent all of /pol/ and pleading to the mods that they should return /pol/ to its "normal" state of geo-centric flags. I swear to god most of these faggots probably came during the election and don't even respect the core 4chan ideal of anonymity. They get horribly confused when they have to actually consider the content of the post and can't just ad-hom about their country.

I think the memeflags are a terrible idea IF they replace the geography flags, but i'd like to see it more like this, Geo flag, Ideology/meme flag, and then as well, a no flag choice. I haven't used a memeflag yet, and don't intend to. Maybe confederate. Texas will secede and kill you all.

If you weren't such a faggot you would realize that the beginning is completely and utterly irrelevant. Things were better with the regional flags. You can keep saying "B-But it wasn't that way a long time ago" but it's never going to be a meaningful point. Get a real argument.

>>129950456
Uh, okay? Same here. There's a reason I listed /new/ and /n/.

pol used to have meme flags long ago b4 all you reddit pieces of shit invaded

>>129950391
>the identitarianism
No, I specifically stated that is not the problem. The problem is that the flags are not accurate representations of the poster's nationality or identity.

The change has only resulted in the loss of a useful feature and the addition of a whole range of negative, corrosive effects on the board and its functioning. The shitposting has always been bad, but it has clearly gone through the roof just since the change. How retarded do you have to be to not comprehend the basic systems here?

>>129950667
>Things were better with the regional flags.

No, they were not.

4chan is always at its best when every post is totally anonymous, and the only thing you can judge the post by is its content.

>people hide behind meme flags because they're ashamed of their country
Let's be real this is the real reason.

>>129949039

It was not a "useful feature", it was a shitty feature that often derailed threads with POO IN LOO and A FUCKING LEAF and made people care more about countries than content.

And no shit things have been a little chaotic since the change, whenever there's a big change to a board things get hectic for a few days. Give it another week and it will settle down.

>>129950895

>The problem is that the flags are not accurate representations of the poster's nationality or identity.

So?

Identity should have nothing to do with your perception of truth.

It's just a microcosm of politics at large. Lots of people claiming to be things that they aren't.

You're just a sheltered retard if you think that you can actually figure anything out about anybody based on a flag.

I've probably lived in the USA for longer then you've been alive. And there was absolutely no benefit of living there that helped me learn about anything political that I could not have learned elsewhere.
And I lived in TX CO SC WA MN OK VA. I've probably lived in more places in America then you ever have or will, and I've probably seen far more of America then you ever have or ever will too, as I've visited every state.

The only thing you learn about in one country that you can't learn in another just as easily are regional logistics, and even those can be explained fairly quickly.

It's not a real context. Country flags ARE THE MEME FLAGS

it evens out - now you can really tell who the retards are

>>129949039

We used to only have meme flags for years and then they got rid of them and we only had geographic flags and everybody complained for a while and then forgot about it.

You will get used to it.

Agree. Esp about the webms

>>129950943
Regional flags don't compromise that. People can judge you for the country that you happen to be from, but it's never going to change the fact that (unless you have a rare flag) it doesn't do anything to identify you. Who cares if they just trash talk your country instead of responding properly? If they don't refute your points then you can consider yourself the winner. You act as though people can't call you a complete and colossal faggot unless they know which country you're from. Why would a meme flag be any better? People can just trash talk by spamming "no step on snek" and "stormweenies leave."

possible compromise is a second forced geoflag beside your selected meme flag

It should be a /bant/ thing

I don't agree with declaring your ideals in place of your geographic location, for the same reason that I don't use fb/twitter etc. No one cares how you feel about social issues, etc especially if you can't prove the credibility to be speaking on the subject. I think your geographical location tells more about your life situation than whatever opinion you currently hold. Also I liked the country-bullying, but I'm a burger so I guess we're at an advantage someone said

It seems to me that sensitivity and protection from mean words has (((leaked here)))

Moot added assigned flags when he added board-wide IDs, a word filter, and axed the captcha. It was designed to intentionally flood /pol/ with Reddit-/int/ cancer and led to a large exodus of /pol/lacks. This is why Reddit le_donaldo faggots need to >>>/gtfo/

I feel like people here were manipulated into accepting IDs; moot destroyed the board by posting all the cuck shit and then put IDs in place to "fix" the mess that he created.

Internet anonymity is a really special thing, that is hardly on any websites at all, so I feel like this website should try to preserve that.

I agree.

This new flag system is objectively retarded and will ruin / is ruining /pol/

It takes away the location of anons which helped to give context to their post. A location, on a board that discusses geopolitical issues often, says a lot. I honestly can't fathom why they did this.

The new flags also won't show up on mobile, what I sometimes use when I'm lurking threads.

How is that a non-argument? By flooding the board culture with /b/-tier garbage, overall discussion and board quality went through the floor

There's a reason we tell people to lurk more, to learn the ways and not stick out like a dumb little newfag. Also, learn how to greentext kid, this is 4chan

Cowards who attack other countries (read: suckerpunch) now prefer to use the LARP flags because then you can't hit them back.

>>129955655
It's a non-argument because you're just saying "You're bad. I hate the threads you people make" while forgetting that correlation does not equal causation. It's not a logical argument at all. It's just an attack on character that's hastily attached to the subject matter with little reason. And holy shit, you don't need to greentext every time you want to use quotation marks. Stop trying so hard.

>>129955537
LARP flag is nothing more than a shit-posting shield. If your argument is based on attacking other countries and you won't show yours, you're most likely just a shit-instigator who wants to evade the retaliation.

I agree.

Notice how you don't see anymore leafs or poo in the loos. Now they hide behind their meme flags. The best thing we can push is if you use a meme flag you are a cuckold who needs to rake up their designated shitting streets.

I remembered when we did meme flags I think the first time /pol/ was introduced or it was during the second deletion of /news/. When this board is deleted people flood the international one and shit posted their and we wanted flags and shieeet so we got meme flags. Lasted like a month because it was essentially country flags on steroids in terms of shit posting abuse.

>>129955882
Not shitpost... to shill
Very different.

People get paid to shill here. 4chan has 2.7 million unique visitors per month. This site is influential because of its grassroot nature, it gives it the capacity to influence large crows because it has the "street cred" of being anonymous.

Before, people could still proxy and shill, but it was easier to spot it when several flags from the same country/ proxy would sometimes reply to each other.

Now it's made things much easier for them.

That's what you said in your original post. I'm sure that you're being quite earnest in calling other people repulsive cancer and then turning around and saying that you're just disapproving of their humor. What tangled webs we weave when we struggle to deceive.

What are you on about ? You can spout whatever you want with or without a flag. You're probably one of those faggots that can't make an argument so you respond with shitty repetitive "a fucking leaf" "POO" etc replies.

The kek flag shouldn't be an option.

Kek, then you misunderstood my first post

If you were around during the nuking of /pol/, you'd know what I mean. It was absolute chaos here for a good while with the shitty /int/ and /b/ memes and porn threads being pushed day in and day out until a good portion of the userbase up and left.

The vacuum they left led to it being filled with Reddit cross-posters mainly from r/t_d around election time who thought the dysfunction going on in /pol/ was the norm. It's a shame /pol/ was nuked before it went mainstream, lots of redpills could have been dropped

Shut yo cracka ass up.

this change officially turned /pol/ into yet another garbage and spam board. Now we have a total of 8:

/b/
/s4s/
/trash/
/bant/
/pol/
/vip/
/r9k/
/news/
/int/ (same as /bant/, why do we have two boards for the same thing?)

I'd call /his/ a garbage and spam board, but it gets an average of 1 post a week. And you faggots cried and cried for it to be created and no one fucking uses it.

4chan was great with less boards. There was more overlap and more culture which emerged on boards. We could talk about tangential topics with pleasure and the mods would allow it. Then the newfags came and demanded super niche boards and demanded the rules be strictly enforced. Now we have 8 goddamn boards dedicated to spam and garbage and it's infecting actual decent boards now. 4chan has gone to hell, and there is a way to fix it: STOP FUCKING MAKING NEW BOARDS AND DELETE THE SHIT ONES! WHY ARE THERE SO MANY FUCKING BOARDS HIROSHIMA?! WE DON'T NEED THEM AND THE MAJORITY OF US DON'T WANT THEM! STOP LISTENING TO WHAT THESE IDIOT NEWFAGS HAVE TO SAY AND IGNORE THEM LIKE MOOT DID!

Excuse me Francois, but you need to pay jizyah to post here. Just a friendly reminder. Thanks.

>he think having deus vult, black power, and jihadi flags will not encourage shitposting for retarded circlejerk

But that's not happening, is it? The only circlejerk I see is the legions of newfaggots spamming the board with threads crying that they can't spam swedecuck/leaf/etc memes. Back in the day, that only happened with the JIDF flag which is why the mods probably removed it. Even ITT tons of people are posting under libertarian flags and BLM flags and no one cares.

Peace Black brother we all love each other!
Black or White, we do have one another.
Yellow menace is what we have to suffer, it will soon consume white and a black brother, in order to survive we have to fuck one another, to create a mongrel to fight a yellow brother.

That's not an argument, you fucking retard. If we removed all flags entirely, OP would be sperging out even harder. He's bitching because we don't have forced national flags which is even less anonymous since he wants to post "poo in loo" spam or some shit.
