>>1481511Anyone who just hands you an essay is doing you a disservice. The internet is a stream of consciousness built upon by everyone within it. You need to read, lurk, and interact to really understand it. Here's some places with actual historical internet content. Warning: there's a lot of NSFW stuff so be prepared.
> Encyclopedia DramaticaMostly e-drama and people being brutally honest to the point of caustic peppered with satire. One of the most "hated" sites on the internet for this reason, but a great vault of drama past and present as well as 4chan history. Check out their copypasta archive!
https://encyclopediadramatica.gay/Copypasta> Kiwii FarmsA forum all about lolcows. Internet opinion on this site is mixed. One side feels these people would be out there being morons even without Kiwii Farms around, so no harm done. Others feel that Kiwii Farms is a mix of gangstalking and encouraging self harm.
https://kiwifarms.st> Cult of the Dead CowA group of literal hackers who have been at it for 40 years. Also the first iteration of the kind of weirdness that eventually would become 'chan culture. Their text files are legendary as are their apps.
https://cultdeadcow.com/> The Internet ArchiveFrom Occupy Wall Street to random fan-subs of hentai you have never heard of, this place has it all. If something from the other sites gathers your interest, this is a great place to learn more about it.
And finally, here are the places to avoid because they are total trash, often ripoff content from the sites above, and/or just aren't worth your time
> Oh Internet> Know your Memes> I can has cheezburger> Wikipedia> Facebook, Reddit, and other walled gardens
