How did we come to such divisiveness that, most of Americans are picking sides between two different politically extreme groups? Why did the Battle for Berkley and Kekistan exist? The main reason for the political insanity started with two internet boards. Now, there are other ways to frame the causes of today’s political turmoil. However, this tale is an online messaging board called 4chan and the antithesis of 4chan called Tumblr.
