At this point, I just see 4chan as an incubation chamber for white nationalist stochastic terrorists. The feds aren’t going to shut down a crucial component of domestic Gladio. From reading Aberration in the Heartland of the Real, someone like Timothy McVeigh perfectly matches the profile of a channer from his involvement in BBS boards to him obsessing over Star Trek to him having incel views to him just being a reactionary in general. It’s truly remarkable how he’s just a proto-channer.
Right sure but does that mean an attempt at banning it shouldn’t be made? At this point it’s so fundamentally known by literally everyone that such an attempt wouldn’t be beneficial to it and further exposure of the system’s failure to actually do anything worthwhile to stop fascism, not even the bare minimum.
While such an attempt might fail in the US there are definitely other countries where it might succeed as a result of the attempt.
Maybe it’s just institutional inertia on the part of the feds. 4chan will disappear from the web when it proves to be detrimental to whatever the feds are trying to accomplish. At least, that’s my guess anyways.
How the fuck has it not happened already? Really feels like there has never actually been any attempt at all, not even an activist push or anything.
