Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

MODERATORS
Anyone caught using 4chan language as an adult should be mocked and their heads put into a toilet. The only exception I'm make is the word based, but only if you're calling actually good things based
Rickroll, kino, creepypasta, weeaboo and some derivations thereof, troll, brony, waifu and husbando, rules 34 and 63, MFW, muh, fedpost, zoomer, coomer, copium, consoom, cumbrained, god tier, and vidya are some other terms originating in chan culture that I think have become more or less fully normalized in broader Internet culture if not culture in general. Also, Lil B came up with based (albeit with a different meaning than what 4chan eventually twisted it into), show him some respect.
I think weeaboo was a similar case to based, where it's originally from this Perry Bible Fellowship comic.
The shortened form of weeb might be a 4chan original.
Oh, yes, good idea to point that out. I believe it was that 4chan's word filter turned "wapanese" into "weeaboo", right?
Don't know myself, but my searching seems to say yes.
