      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.

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

          That some 4chan users went to college?

          Mine lets you keep it for life. This is a dumb gotcha.

      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.
