1. and 3. Fake. I don't think there's any proof of this. There are no real an heroes on /b/, posts on the subject are a meme in themselves and as far as we know, have no precedent on being true.
If they were, theoretically, real instances - you'd think a person would get more sympathy and psychological support from a cage of hungry polar bears than they would from /b/. Yes, they need help, but /b/ approaches everything as the fake trash that /b/ itself is, and someone who comes to /b/ with anything else is not going to get any help. /b/ is not even a community.

2. There's no rules on /b/ (except Rule 34). As far as we know, the pictures come from elsewhere anyway and I am not aware of /b/ ever being implicated in animal torture. It's just rude exposure.

/b/ is rude, chaotic, unrestrained exposure to whatever the last things that one may be sensitive to. Anyone on /b/ with the intention, expectation or fear of exposure to anything whatsoever is in the very, very wrong place. If you're on /b/ by your own will, you've already forefeited any morals, expectations or sensitivities. It's better to just turn away from /b/ and not look. That's what I generally do.
