## Abstract (arXiv)

We have collected over 30M messages from the publicly available /pol/ message boards on 4chan and 8chan, and compiled them into a model of toxic language use. The trained word embeddings (0.4GB) are released for free and may be useful for further study on toxic discourse or to boost hate speech detection systems: https://textgain.com/8chan.
