Book Preview:

#1 I went to an anime convention in Baltimore thirteen years ago. I didn't like anime, and I felt too old for the event, but I went out of curiosity. What I saw was the same kids in costumes.

#2 4chan. org, the website that Poole founded, was used to trade pictures of anime girls with his friends. It was eventually used by millions of people to trade pictures of anime girls with their friends.

#3 4chan, a post-cultural garbage heap, transformed into the post-cultural garbage heap upon which the events of our age stood. It was a place to post content and talk to people online, but it also became the birthplace of the alt-right.

#4 Media reports, Trump, fake news, late-night TV, and talking head pundits on 24-hour cable news all tangled up into the heap of social media are the source of confusion. The book attempts to explain how this all came to be.
