Terminating Service for 8Chan

Users on 8chan (and Kiwifarms and similar sites) very specifically rile up hatred, they are frighteningly good at radicalizing frustrated young men.

They regularly praise previous mass murderers and goad others into doing the same.

So what you are saying is that 8chan has the same content as certain Facebook groups. Why not drop Facebook?

Because it's much easier to succeed (and feel really good afterwards) in bullying the small deformed guy.

I've no idea. I've never visited the site. Elsewhere in this thread it is said that they clearly jest -- I wouldn't jest about such things, but without seeing the content in question I can't say how questionable it is.

There is a very good reason why those manifestos were shared on 8chan, and it's because a significant amount of posters do not post those things in jest.
