internet slang, particularly on older, more chaotic forums like 4chan, the term “cancer” refers to content or behavior that degrades the quality of the community or thread—often through repetition, off-topic noise, or forced memes.
So yes, some users would absolutely call that “cancer” because:
• It interrupts the intended purpose of the thread
• It introduces social fluff where it’s not wanted
• It may signal that the user doesn’t respect the norms of that space

Even well-meaning posts can be seen as cancerous if they’re disruptive in context.

3. Intent vs. Reception

Your intent might be positive—trying to engage, compliment, or observe something about the group—but the reception is what matters in these environments. In tightly moderated threads, content over intent is the rule.

Conclusion:
Yes, in the eyes of that community, especially if it’s strict, such a comment could be considered cancer
