You are right, Users like these were booted out of 4chan and formed 8chan. 4chan got it because it's more popular

Have you never been to the /pol/ board? 4chan is very much still a hate filled place that encourages harmful actions.

Have you never been to a board other than /pol/? There's plenty of other harmless exchanges going on. 4chan is not primarily a political site.

Sure, shut down /pol/ and /b/ and you solve most of the 4chan problem for the moment.

These people tend to be extremely online, I am skeptical blocking a couple websites will change their overall behavior or ideologies. I suspect they'd just make a different website.

That describes pretty much every online community. I've seen a lot of hate, real threats, etc. on Facebook

I don't frequent either boards. I am just stating that people like this dude were booted out of 4chan. Is 4chan hateful? No idea. Haven't visited it or plan to.
