why are we censoring "shooter" but not the name of a far-right forum that has harassed me multiple times

One gets you demonetized the other gets you engagement. Capitalism wins again.

4chan is a "far-right forum" now?

...yes? Why wouldn't it be

I probably wouldn't classify it that way. It's a cesspool but not really what I'd consider "far right" like say Stormfront.

You'll find people openly arguing with Nazis so it's not really fair to say it's a far right forum as much as it is just a complete cesspool where the worst side of people comes out.

FWIW I wouldn't really consider Telegram a far right forum either even though they're definitely there and highly visible.
