    In bad country

    address in the United States, while the names of his children and wife had appeared on a “kill list” on 4chan, an anonymous online forum.

    ….ok, at this point 4chan has to be a psyop, right? Does nothing but spit out pro-us propaganda and use memes to make people want to believe it, even if it’s not true.

      Not started as one but it's being allowed to continue existing because it's beneficial as one and also incredibly easy to perform psyops on. I'm convinced that the left were chased off the site as part of psyops, it was left/right edgyness roughly 50/50 until the place got so obnoxious the left moved on and just allowed the nazis to takeover. I'm also convinced that this is the modus operandi of the feds in most online spaces, chase the left out of the space and get the right to take over. Look at how things go for the left in basically every online space, it's always the same op.

        Most of the time the platforms are already in capitalist hands so it's really easy to just ask them to self moderate to ban and evict the left. The they just boost the "center" and voila!

      Channers are just like that. Idk if that makes it a "psyop" or not that term is pretty flexible.
