    He could have pressed just one button, and we’d never have the incel movement, the alt right or the massive resurfacing of white nationalism among young people.

    This is pure idealism lol

      Yeah this is Great Man Theory.

      The incels and racists would have just burrowed deeper into the substrata of the internet.

      4chan actually did take action against child pornography and god knows there's still that shit bring traded on the internet.

        Yeah this is Great Man Theory.

        except 4chan was a fairly popular subculture, so forcing the wignats somewhere else would have set them back significantly.

        The movement would be nowhere near as popular if they had nixed pol and started banning for racist spam.

      Yeah, it would have helped, but the basic tools to create all the modern chud shit we see today already existed.
