People will be lined up to buy the domain name for a pretty penny… it will be back in one form or another

It’ll make a nice honeypot for extremists, if it wasn’t one already.

The .edu emails in the mod list didn’t spell it out enough?

Damn, uBlock Origin straight up blocks this site.

Containment breach

This. Now they will move to another chan and Reddit, until they banned there.

Deplatforming works, that’s just a fact. They gain more from having an established recruitment ground than other forums lose absorbing their strays.

The containment of millions of incels has been breached

The recruitment platform to make millions of more incels is gone

What sites are left that you’re allowed to be semi Anonymous. I don’t need an email to sign up.

Sure, the 4chan made by people too Nazi and pedo for 4chan, what a swell idea to direct people towards

First they came for the anons and I did not speak out, because I was not a degenerate white supremacist.
Then they came for 9gaggers and I did not speak out, because I was not a asian nazi roleplayer.
Then they came for the redditors and I did not speak out, because I did not think I was a self-righteous bigot.
When they came for us feds (?), and there was no one left to speak for me. Except the website formerly known as Twitter, which would’ve been completely on board of they’d noticed.

It was a good container of those people. Now that it’s been shattered, the incels, misogynists, and others will scatter to the four winds and on to other sites…. like Lemmy.

What drives you to believe that those people were ever, ever contained?

They’re already here, hiding among us.
They could be anyone. The only time they reveal their depravity is when they pretend 4chan wasn’t a cesspool in its entirety.
