>gas the kikes, race war now!

Saying this diplomatically will lead to the same mistranslation that Cyber-Yang will come up with in 2500 years:

>Fuel the Arabs, that they might race with us.

How likely is the scenario in the attached image? When we are reading ancient works, do you think anything like this has happened?

I actually own a copy. I think that in like twenty years when I'm much older and this place is hopefully long gone, it's something I can pick up and laugh at, if at nothing else than just at the memories it'll bring back of this board. I read about a third of it and it was funny most of the time. Some parts were genuinely pretty well-written, in a grotesque sort of way. The most interesting part is how completely impenetrable it is - if you showed this book to literally anyone who ever lived that didn't frequent this board consistently for a couple years, almost none of it will make any sense, and the parts they vaguely grasp won't be understood the way they were meant to be. It's a completely unique piece of insider art, I'm not sure if anything else quite like it exists.
On the second page there's a standalone line that says "They work for the masketta man." That's nonsense completely detached from its origin, and if a copy of this book exists in a hundred years, there will be no living person who can explain why it's funny or even what it means. I find that neat and think it was worth buying a copy just for that novelty.
