Probably not the ones—if any—that lurk 4chan and other extreme imageboards, having been desensitized to such content or probably even get something off of it.

I actually wonder now how much of their workforce would fit in that demographic.

anyone thats been lurking/posting on chans for a long time also know neurotypicals couldnt deal with the content

just because some people become desensitized doesnt mean the obscene content wont damage the mental health of the entire set of people

I was just thinking that. 4chan janitors are volunteers. Of course, the payoff is helping 4chan exist, not helping Facebook make a few billion more, so the incentive is still vastly different. Still, that might be the right recruitment pool.

I don’t think so. They’d just beat off to the orphan vivisection videos all day long.

There is a lot more to that website than /b/. The janitors on /out/ do a very good job of keeping the board clean.
