It's a pretty dismal strawman in the first panel. Hell, even in 2010 they were famous for being that site that just recycled memes from other sites. Comments were same shit different era, 'le', 'good sir', 'narwhal bacon'... well at least that last one was original even if lolrandumbxD.

But yeah, 'based' and 'this' are literally reused from other sites, especially 'this', which its entire purpose is to show agreement on sites that don't have voting like reddit does. People saying 'this' on reddit don't understand reddit

You think 4chan is digesting the content and not producing it? First mouth should CIA, then Reddit.

4chan? Producing? Since 2014? HAHAHAHAHA

The pic (generally) rang true when it was made but is a decade out of date.

Even back then it wasn't producing most of this stuff but rather recycling memes from Something Awful, it's stale memes all the way down.
