No I don't. I just know that it is the source where if you ruffle the wrong feathers, which is hard to gauge because anyone can decide to be an asshole at a given. Then you're just going to be in for a miserable time. 4Chan has built up it's reputation throughout the 2000s and into the 2010s, as a place where people are rabidly mischievous and utilize what anonymity they have to drive anyone insane if they think someone ran afoul with them.
4Chan was really what gave birth to places like Encyclopedia Dramatica, their ranks have long infected Reddit and they once used to have been behind the whole Anonymous movement.
Not a crowd to fuck with. Just imagine messing with the cool kid in school and suddenly during recess you're encircled by their 20 friends and they just have a field day with you in however they see fit.
