8chan Becomes Haven for Murderers
Devastating news shook the American public over the weekend, as stories emerged of back-to-back mass shootings. The first, in El Paso, saw 20 killed; the second, a matter of hours later in Dayton, left 9 dead.
While these appalling incidents were prompting widespread condemnation, a different narrative began to materialize online: the El Paso killer had publicized the attack in advance via digital forum 8chan, inciting his “brothers” to celebrate this “heroic act”.
8chan originally started out as a utopia for free speech and sub-culture, but it has recently been associated with hate crimes and evolved into a soapbox for white supremacists.
In this year alone, perpetrators of at least three shootings, including the New Zealand Mosque killings, posted beforehand declarations of hatred and racist vitriol on the website.
These carefully crafted statements stayed up on the forum without censorship, and went viral soon after the shocking events.
What’s worse, servers of 8chan are spread around the globe, which makes it hard for authorities to knock the site down.
