He didn’t provide an example, unless you think trolling journalists is a “gem”. His other claim is unfounded.
There should be a "BS Law" were someone claims to have evidence, then refuses to present it no matter how pressed.
He claimed they had a math proof, as we see from the other comments, that wasn't /pol.
He claimed they trolled journalists. Whatever.
He claimed they had something to do with convicting a sex criminal, then provided zero evidence to back that claim up.
In no way is any of this justification for the racism that is the central message of /pol.
- filoleg 5y agoI provided an example, the one about an unsolved math problem (the haruhi sequence) that got solved on 4chan and then academically verified to be correct (as well as cited later on in other math research papers). I mentioned it in multiple posts. I never said it was from /pol/, it was from another 4chan board (/sci/). And I also brought up other boards as well, so I don't know what to tell you. You also say that my claim about Peter Bright allegations is unverified, but again, I literally was there when those conversations took place, and you are also welcome to go to any 4chan archiver website, search for that name, and you will see the results from those years.
- solosoyokaze 5y agoI'm talking about /pol since that's what the original post was about. You can't move the goalposts to all of 4chan.
- hda2 5y agoThis is nonsense. I have no horse in this race, but the only one moving goal posts here is you.
- solosoyokaze 5y agoYou clearly do have a horse in this race. Read the thread, it’s about /pol Here's the OP: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26918378 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26918378
- hda2 5y agoNo I don't.
