This doesnt really deserve a news post, so im posting here rather...

 

 

 

“Have you welcomed her into your heart yet?” Asks one post on 4chan’s “politically incorrect” message board, /pol/. “I’m talking, of course, about Ebola-Chan. The viral goddess of love and Afrocide … Our shrines and incantations give her strength.”

 

Whaaaa.... /pol/ i expected better of you. and then they deliver...

 

This is apparently been posted on some african news sites or something like that.

I personally love 4chan pranks, as long as thez stay pranks, and not something with a potential to be deadly. This went out of control a little.

Eh, 4chan is dead and has been for awhile now. The only ones who stuck around are the low tier shitposters. Everyone else migrated to 8chan.

its funny until people start to take it serious. now its sad, but at the same time it cracks me up how people still fall for it, after all the pranks done in the last years

Oh lord the comment section of that site xD

 

Running stories like this though the WP is just another place for tabloid trash articles.

I don't actually know who is worse the press or the chan.

4chan is still the diarrhoea stained ass of the internet though.  

What do they know of England, who only England know?

I dunno. Oldfag from 2004. Everytime I see /b/ being represented by le edgy Guy Fawkes anon, I cringe a little on the inside. But for the most part, it's porn porn porn business as usual.
