Cool. I'm morbidly curious how the scum are reacting to it but I don't want to pay the site a click for many reasons.

Is this about that mosque shooting threat? If so:

How sites like that and 4chan can still exist I do not know.

4chan is nowhere near as bad as 8chan and actually has some helpful boards. I've learned a ton from /p/ (legimitely the best place I've found on the internet for critiques), /3dcg/, and /gd/.

8chan is a cesspool that should have been raided years ago.

Which libertarian tech bro is hosting this shit hole again on their server again? Can't wait for them to cry foul over the interruption of their "marketplace of ideas"

I don't know how 4chan works now, but when moot was around he would always cooperate with United States federal officials. In way 4chan is/was a honeypot since the anonymous nature of 4chan probably made some people think they actually were completely "anonymous" when posting.

"Well you see, the 4chan knitting board is actually very chill" is starting to sound like "Some Nazi stormtroopers were actually good people"

The cesspool of human filth, doing nothing but radicalizing the weakest in society to violent hatred and bigotry.

This took too long.

There's some interesting nuance to this in the thread OP posted surrounding how 8chan stores user data. Apparently, your IP and whatever else is stored as long as your post isn't deleted. So for these manifestos, often the original post will be deleted, then a thread will be made with a screenshot of that original post -- thereby scrubbing user data but still allowing people to egg these monsters on. I am really interested to see how this all plays out, especially considering they are seeking the folks who posted and instigated this guy. It could lend some powerful insight into how these cesspools radicalize people into atrocious acts.

Hahaha oh this will be glorious.
Wouldn't be the first chan-board to fall. The way things are going, 8chan will be joining 12chan.
