@BlueVeins The 4chan troll campaigns are the funniest. Taylor Swift did an online competition in which people could vote on which fan would meet their idol. The majority of the fans were little girls, but 4chan inflated the votes of this middle aged man and made him win and the site restarted the vote count.

In 2009 they had 4Chan's creator voted Times #1 most influential person

In another instance they trolled the fact that a lot of modern feminism is man hating and proved the point by having the term #endfathersday trend on Twitter. It started with 4chan members posting the tag with their explanation, and then regular users were posting it, talking about how unneeded men are.

They also one time had Oprah Winfrey in 2008 unknowingly use the term "over 9000" and the context was "let me read something that was posted on our message board from someone who claims to be from a pedophile network, it says this "he doesnt forget, he doesn't forgive, his group has over 9000 penises" and maybe i wont say the next part.
