First point: then why write an article about it? Get someone who knows what they're talking about.
For your second point, how is that unique to 4chan? Every message board I've ever used does stuff like that.

I just went to /pol/. No -- every message board I've ever used does not do stuff like that. And how the hell are you okay with using one that does?

...what message boards are you using that every single one of them "does stuff like that"?

reddit, topic-specific boards I browsed years ago. You're just better at ignoring the bad parts of the sites you use. I see racism on here all the time, especially against asians for some reason.

.. then you might be part of the problem.
> ignore the crap you don't care about
The problem is that plenty of people seem to use it for recruiting to make the world worse for non-users, whether by campaigns of organised harassment or disinformation, or other means.
