Gutting a thread is one thing. Gutting a thread but leaving all the furshit up is another entirely.
Purge the furfag jannies or this site will die.

Hi, mod team/janitors/Admins. I talked with a friend about getting funding through ads.
One anon commented it would be a shitton of work trying to avoid losing anonymity, but the friend, who knows I visit this site, he visits this site regularly, told me it is possible to use Brave.
https://brave.com/brave-ads/I am not sure up to what extent they are anonymous, and how they do not invade public privacy, but he recommended this, and apparently, they pay on cryptos, so might be worth the try to investigate furthermore.
Kudos, comrades.

>>498683Hi! Thanks for your interest in this topic.
I cannot officially speak for the rest of the staff yet as I haven't directly asked, but I feel confident in saying we have no interest in making money from users, even for non-profit purposes. We don't even have plans to add a cryptocurrency donation address for server costs, and that's a non-intrusive, voluntary method of financial support.
My personal view is that advertisements are in almost all cases both annoying and an exploitation of the user. I recommend using an adblocker on all commercial services, and directly donating to any content creators you wish to support.

Why is my board theme full of gay and faggot instead of red and black?
No.498688
>>498685>>498684Got it, my idea was to promote more the board using most of the fundings to
1) Pay the costs of the server.
2) Use the funds to get the promotion of some personalities, like Richard Wolff, who named the board some time ago.
3) Incentivize the board council and its bureaucratic members (mods, janitors, etc)
Anyway, tried my best to search for something anoynomous.
See ya!

>>498692a mix of ban-evading and multiple repeat offenses in the past made it so that eugene and a few others (like lear) were basically put on a probation where they could keep posting if they obeyed the rules and be treated as ban evaders if they didn't, as it was either that or they were gonna be effectively permabanned
eugene went and posted covid denialism outside the covid thread so we treated him as a ban evader - something we've done in the past and made fairly clear to them, so he knew what he was doing.

>>498697your first mistake was implying that 4/pol/ does not bait the shit out of itself with garbage threads that have absolutely no point whatsoever, because that happens all the time to the point where a left wing politically incorrect raid on your website is nothing but a spec of dust compared to the chance of /pol/ users manufacturing consent like gorillas masturbating to dead orangutan babies
also, are you Croatian or something? I'm just making a guess for the sake of it

>>498120>reasonable alternativeCompletely vague non-standard. There is no such thing as "reasonable" or a test of "reasonableness", it's a standard used in law to arbitrarily imprison Black people.

>>498713Marxism-Leninism was conceived for Russia but that didn't stop it from being implemented all over the world from East Germany to Vietnam.
Just because Juche as a system was developed with the DPRK's conditions in mind doesn't mean such a system is absolutely impossible to replicate in other countries (although how successfully such an implementation would turn out would widely vary), which is why there's a Juche party in Nepal for example.
