This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Protip: add plain after the first three backticks of code block to prevent syntax highlighting

Fake and gay for obvious reasons, but also based af.

[–] disconnected@lemm.ee 13 points 1 week ago

it's easy to detect fake stories because of how they are but yes, based.

Fluttershy and Applejack can't get married because Rainbow Dash loves Applejack.

Fluttershy and Applejack can't get married because Fluttershy is a pegasus and Applejack is an Earth pony :P

[–] Flames5123@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 week ago

Plus Applejack and Rainbow Dash being married is loosely confirmed in the series finale where they come in together and look at each other.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Applejack is completely wrong for Fluttershy. Fluttershy deserves so much better. An earth pony? No. She deserves a goddess!

Is the Lord of Chaos enough?

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

rainbow dash would cheat on applejack the moment she gets a chance with daring doo get the buck out of here

[–] joyjoy@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

She'll be too busy fan-girling to actually make a move.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

That's cheating in my book 😠

[–] cqst@lemmy.blahaj.zone 50 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (7 children)

This is a manufactured fake greentext. Some kind of CIA psyop to whitewash 2011 4chan as somehow pro LGBTQ or chill with My Little Pony. I mean there's nothing necessarily wrong with that, it's just kind of ridiculous to try and act like this comes from 2011.

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 6 days ago

The real psyop was the conservative takeover of online spaces. I remember the old net. Even unmoderated shitholes like 4chan were significantly more leftist. Deviant communities like furries and especially the bronies were absolutely on 4chan back in the day. Sure, there were lots of generally rude assholes, but most of them were apolitical or tankies.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 9 points 6 days ago

Idk, anon could just be extremely anti theist. Aggressively atheist and libertarian are also 4chan stereotypes from the time.

[–] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 31 points 1 week ago

So you're saying it is fake, and gay?

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

4chan always had an lbgtq community. Somehow.

[–] psud@aussie.zone 20 points 1 week ago

People judge 4chan by /b

It has always had wholesome bits too

[–] toothbrush@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The opposite, actually. The mlp fandom originated on 4chan I think.

[–] marzhall@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Can confirm. I remember my seeing a first "hey, did you guys by any chance happen to see the new episode" post on /b/ back in 2010, quickly followed by it exploding on 4chan and people setting up the first pony tf2 servers, moot creating /pony/ as a containment board, and everyone saying "don't post on /pony/ or you'll get IP banned in two weeks" - because a decade prior, moot had created the /furry/ containment board when furries got big, let it sit for two weeks, then IP banned everyone who had posted to it and deleted it.

Of course, he didn't replicate the action with /pony/, which is still around. And early brony culture was fascinating, because on a site where shock humor ruled and the experience was like digging through a sewer to find gems, suddenly a subculture emerged that was heavily anti-irony, kind, and genuine. Absolutely bizarre to watch.

Worth noting, as others have, that this was pre-gamergate, which was the social movement that took 4chan and turned it from a place that let Nazis post (usually "iRoNiCaLly" under the premise of being part of the ocean of piss that was the shock humor on /b/) and rolled it into a full Nazi bar.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm fairly certain I remember reading this in 2011.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah I recall reading this in 2011/2012. It always pops into my head every time I see a conservative whining about a show having a gay character because of da woke.

[–] DicJacobus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I am replying to this comment for no other reason than to poke fun at yor profile picture.

[–] AlexisFR@jlai.lu 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

4chan was somewhat progressive before Gamer Gate and Trump

[–] migo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 week ago

It was full on progressive in social issues. Anonymous was progressive (it still is) socially and politically. 4chan shifted with Gamergate and it escalated from there.

[–] Estiar@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago

There's actually a /MLP/ board on 4chan. There aren't a lot of fandoms that have their own separate board, but they made that one because people were pony-posting all over the other message boards.

[–] Lyra_Lycan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 40 points 1 week ago (2 children)

There are also about 450,000 other gods to choose from, and about 5 are the same monotheistic source of evil that humans have used as a scapegoat to kill each other over. Western modernist Christianity is literally the English cuisine of religions.

If you look at the Torah (or old testament) it explicitly says there are tons of other gods, Jews and Christians just choose to only serve one.

Wow that's an exceptionally savage comment. Fantastic stuff L_L!

Are we talking about the Enlightened Ones from Lunacid?

[–] lessthanluigi 2 points 1 week ago

I had to look that up. So yes, we are!

[–] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Multilayer Perceptron toys?

I like their idea.

Is there a fediverse 4chan yet
