>What about those communities? I'm sure they can stay on 8chan, or find somewhere else?
Then what’s different about extremist communities?
I don't understand what you mean. Presumably, they will also either continue using 8chan or find somewhere else?

Exactly.
You're saying that as if you have made a point, but I still don't understand what you mean. Could you explain what your actual point is?

Well, if far right terrorists can just stay or find another place, then how is Cloudflare’s action suppressing them? You seem to be defending their action but at the same time implying it has no effect.
I'd not say the recent far-right terrorism is just from some individual psychopaths with no value for human life. There's a ton of far-right/alt-right ideas out there, on platforms like 8chan, which actively demonizes certain groups of people. It's not like these shootings are just crazy people who just want to kill people at random; they want to kill the people they see as the "enemy".
