I like the vids on this site but don't use the forums before this but I had to post it.
Has anyone seen http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-10520487

It is a report by the BBC, the biggest british news network, on 4chan. Makes for a very amusing read.
Or has someone seen this before? I mention it because it was posted today, the 31st of August.

"In response, the Church of Scientology has labelled them "terrorists" guilty of "hate crimes"."

DUN DUN!

Hate crimes=TERRORISM ZOMG

I just saw this and was about to make a thread about this. They have no clue about 4chan.
We gotta do somethign about this. They're all worrying bout 4chan while 711 is the real thing middle class conservatives should be fretting over.

Who cares about Scientology?
Here's what really stupid about the quote “In response, the Church of Scientology has labelled them “terrorists” guilty of “hate crimes”."
What, The Church of Scientology has authority? They have a voice that can be marked as valid?
WTF?

It hurts to read the comments…

"Well, if all of these people have nothing better to do than attempt to corrupt the youth of today into a continuation of the ASBO teens that plague society believing they "don't have to conform to rules and regulations", then what a giant waste of time. Go out, get a job, do something constructive with your time and help your country."

Help my country, thats could be a good idea since its nearly at 50% unemployment.

(If thats a large number thats because I am estimating how many are not even bothering to apply for jobs to get on the statistics too.)

Nah I'll sit back and watch Glenn Beck become the next Hitler, It wont affect me since I'm not a Muslim.

(An exception to that is he is to stupid to do anything evil.)

I'll take that Glenn Beck and eat it!

I think he looks like pop n fresh,making him delicous.

All the 4chan reports say the same thing.

First they mention internet terrorism, then to related events (usually scientology), and always in scientific-ish terms, almost as if 'memes' could be observed in a petri dish.
