/pol/ takes everything personally

/pol/ is a board on 4chan for political discussion, created on November 10, 2011. Originally, /pol/ started as a spin-off of /new/ 8 months after it was deleted, this deletion was due to the fact that a large portion of the users on /new/ were "stormfront users" or "nazis" which caused the moderators of 4chan to delete the board entirely before creating /pol/.

The current state of /pol/

It's widely agreed upon that /pol/ is currently a politically themed random board due to extremely low quality content and spam posted regularly (this includes: bait/shill posts, NSFW content, sperging and schizoposting). The large drop in quality can be attributed to the fact of /pol/'s massive rise in popularity during and after the election of Donald Trump when /pol/ was frequently mentioned in the mainstream media, this caused a massive influx of newfags who weren't adapted to the culture, with various conflicting political opinions to flood the board.

A left-wing board before stormfront invasion?

Some people will assert that /pol/ was a centre-left or left-wing board before "stormfront" flooded it, this is untrue, /pol/ always had a right-wing majority. The userbase mostly ranged from Ron Paul libertarians to Nazis, this can be proven by looking at early archives discussing /pol/ in 2012 (/pol/ itself has little to no archives before 2014).
