>>20640838While it's true, anonymous allows 12 year olds to cuss on the internet and mom won't find out, I find also there are advantages.
The biggest advantage is that we don't see as many cliques on 4chan as a lot of other forums/boards, and being anonymous means we have no politics at all. Everything here gets judged on the post itself.
>>20640859>Being able to hide behind anonymity allows people to feel more comfortable to write whatever they feel like writing, regardless of the connotations, outcomes, etc.I don't think this is entirely a bad thing. Being able to post without consequences means we can have frank discussions and people are more open to discussing the merits of the ideas because there isn't anything getting in the way. On other forums I might see you post in a thread and discount you as some fucked up Goodra fetishist. And ignore your posts outside that thread. Here you can post your goodra shit and jump to a thread about VGC, and no one knows you're the same person.
