      He wasn’t just on 4chan. He was “friends” with Christopher Poole, aka moot, founder of 4chan.

      Also it’s possibly the reason /pol/ exists at all since it was created within days of them meeting and having at least an hour long conversation.

    I used to use 4chan b/. Maybe in 2007ish

    It was just funny mildly offensive stuff at first. Millennial humor.

    But then it just started being cp.

    Like literally every 10 posts was cp.

    Graphic. Real.

    And I thought. Jesus. This is sick and also. I may get in legal trouble for seeing it even though I wasn’t seeking it out.

    I left and never went back.

    I was sure it was on there and proliferating because there was an abundance of pedos using it.

        And sites go offline and seized for smallest infractions but it managed to stay up very very long.

        There must be a long line of rich and well connected people operating and using it.

    Why is this the story that’s spreading? Of all the bad shit this man had done, and all the still on the loose people we know were involved, posting cartoon porn doesn’t even rank.

      novelty.

      here are 10 more documents showing that Trump & Epstein were murderous pedos. add them to the gargantuan pile of evidence we have already.

      Esptein liked popular kids franchise and did r34, that’s new.

      it’s bullshit. no justice until everyone involved is hanged, INCLUDING everything agent that saw all those allegations and decided not to investigate. Having 1 wild allegation against a hated public figure? I can understand if they had a short investigation and decided that there is no evidence. 100s of similar allegations by victims? no, you can’t dismiss all of them.
