4chan's Latest Creation - "Ebola-chan" - May Put West Africans in Panic - MiS - 09-24-2014
Code:
She’s called Ebola-chan, and she’s some cross between a prank, a witless joke and a truly vile strain of racism.
“Have you welcomed her into your heart yet?” Asks one post on 4chan’s “politically incorrect” message board, /pol/. “I’m talking, of course, about Ebola-Chan. The viral goddess of love and Afrocide … Our shrines and incantations give her strength.”
Ebola-Chan is not, needless to say, a goddess anywhere outside of 4chan’s diseased imagination: The character is a /pol/ invention, a cartoon mascot for the virus that could infect half a million people within the next four months.![[Image: gdnqhp.jpg]](http://a.pomf.se/gdnqhp.jpg)
As if 4chan wasn't dealing enough with all the drama from The Fappening and the #GamerGate movement, they've somehow managed to add one more news story to their plate.
I really think this stopped being a joke quite a while ago - I've been to sites where people have actually cut themselves and made blood shrines worshipping Ebola-chan, asking her to visit their country. But hey, at least she's cute, right?

Meh, old news now. This was being posted all over /pol/ within like a day or two of the ebola thing kicking off.

I assume that Ebola-chan's originating thread is now deleted, given the fact that 4chan has recieved some new mods.
The screenshot in this thread is from 8chan, if you want to go there here's the link.

I hope you're ready to see a whole lot more of her.

The internet is a very strange place. I wonder if people were this strange before the internet days?
