    Hours after the Charlottesville car attack that killed Heather Heyer I went to /b/ to see if anyone wanted to virtually protest the alt-right white supremacist websites, and it was filled with post after post urging people to kill more protestors with their cars.

      Because that’s virtually the only place where you can do that and not get banned. So obviously all the nutjobs flocked there to do it.

      Doesn’t change that there’s still fun discussion sometimes on the site, although it’s hardly worth it when it’s so full of misogyny and alt-right propaganda. I admire the people that manage to stay sane in there.
