What is the biggest "Happening" that you ever experienced with /pol/?
Obama beating McCain counts?
last major chimpout is the only one I can remember but I know there's been more.
I can't remember a real 100% full blown happening going on ever.
>>76916038
Brussels/Paris attacks
>>76916326
This
Ukrainian Riots so far is what I would consider the "biggest" ones because of the impact it had.
>>76916038
Crimea 2014
>>76916507
9/11, classmate's dad died in the World Trade Center
>>76916547
>>76916097
/pol/ wasn't around then, we were on the offsite /new/ during that time
>>76916570
arab spring was pretty big
the fall of libya
benghazi
brussels
>>76916630
>>76916326
>>76916387
Nah, those two were duds. Paris even worse because nothing changed and Paris arguably became more welcoming for "refugees".
>>76916038
The biggest Happenings I've experienced on /pol/:
1. Ferguson Riots before and after verdict.
2. GamerGate.
3. Chris Dorner.
Not Happenings:
1. Zimmerman verdict (It was just a celebration and I remember a lot of people on /pol/ being pissed at the lack of rioting).
2. Brussels/Paris Attacks (see above).
3.Dylan Roof (No violent riots).
>>76916780
>2. GamerGate.
How was this a happening?
I mostly avoided it
>>76917510
For those who played an active roll it was a major happening.
i remember following the zimmerman trial with /pol/, and the verdict
I think Dorner was by far the biggest, most exciting happening. It was an absolute thrillride.
>>76917774
>sending some tweets was a happening
Wow, that's crazy!
>>76916038
We were literally only 9-days off from a level 5 chimpout.
>>76916038
If we're not just going by things that suddenly happened and were almost forgotten a few weeks later, then I'd say the Trump campaign wins. It's been the longest and most wild ride I've been on.
I remember when I was 5 Japan attacked Pearl Harbor
those were the days
>>76918425
>cruz
>gope
Trumpcuckery is truly for braindead basement dwellers who have no clue about politics
>>76916038
9/11
>>76916038
In terms of white death toll probably Bataclan
In terms of mayhem and HAPPENING NOW with something we can all watch together probably the riots in Ferguson
In terms of sheer length, participation and fun probably SOPA Generals in 2012.
I yield the rest of my time.

>>76918668
Only comparable happening for 9/11 was the Something Awful threads
>>76918380
whats happening in 9 days?
>>76916038
there is nothing that happens on /pol/
any "happenings" are pointless shit or government things where /pol/ has no influence
>>76916038
Paris/Brussels attacks, Trump announcing presidency, Charleston shooting for me. sorry vets, im a newfag
wish I got to ezperiece the 2012 election, Benghazi, Arab Spring (all of those on /new/ right?), Dorner, Ferguson/Mike Nigger, and Zimzam
>>76919087
though for Brussels I was awake at 4 in the morning in bed reading the thread and watching as the death toll steadily increased. Same for Paris but I was on a bus heading out from NYC late at night.
>>76916038
Best Happening was Ukraine riots, such a cozy time Clank clank desu fampai
>>76918947
>He doesn't remember directing the construction of barricades during the Maidan square riots in Ukraine.
>Or shitposting with Chinese stock brokers while the Shanghai market crashed
>Or directing airstrikes against ISIS
>Or submitting critical evidence to Zimmerman's lawyer during his trial resulting in a witness's testimony being thrown out
Maybe you're just never around for it.
I wonder what /pol/ would have been like on 9/11
>>76919087
2012 election was shit tier mate. Unironic Romneyfag delusion was some of worst shit posting ever. Everyone knew the outcome before it happened. The board was better as whole then though. Like /mu/ before mediafire went down
>>76919355
you reminded me, Shanghai market crash was another.
>>76919394
imagine /pol/'s reaction to Paris or Brussels but literally a million times worse
>>76919355
also, the evidence bit about the Zimzam trial? what are the details about that? did someone find crucial evidence and send it to the defense team?
Ferguson was fun to watch.
kiev, I think it was bigger than paris because of all those RT streams
>>76919610
>what are the details about that? did someone find crucial evidence and send it to the defense team?
Yes. In a nutshell, some stupid bitch posted shit on her facebook that she shouldn't have and we sent it to ZimZam's lawyer, who then brought it up in court.
>>76919996
fucking based. im so glad Obama's son got fucking annihilated by a total savage who auctioned his fucking gun off. too legendary to even be real, Zimzam is literally the first of the two prophets of meme magic.
>>76916038
I was once in a active shooter situation
I also discovered a plot to kill one of my teachers
Both at the same high school
>>76920345
Where did you go to high school?
The PSY concert.
Would've been nice to have North Korea's idol group bust in and do a battle of the bands.
inb4 ">>/mu/"
>>76920528
a vocational high school for two years part time
should tell you everything
Last Septembers thing.
The 7 year cycle
>>76920793
>jungle of chimps
The george zimmerman trial was the best thing that happened on this board.
>>76920896
wat
>>76920971
Shemitah
Jewish 7 year cycle economic crash.
Every 7 (I think) is a super Shemitah.
Boston marathon with boat finale
>>76919355
The /sg/ post was epic, mostly because that was the first time I browsed it.
>>76916038
If your answer isnt 9/11 your too young to be on pol.
Unless its the cuba crisis.
