Meta turns into 8Chan.
Under Meta's newly relaxed moderation policies, women can be compared to household objects, ethnic groups can be called "filth," users can call for the exclusion of gay people from certain professions and people can refer to a transgender or non-binary person as an "it."
Meta's new content policies will let many groups be targeted
Changes in moderation will release a flood of hate speech and could even fuel real-world violence, experts say.

Fredrick Brennan, the founder of the far-right message board site 8chan, has died.
Brennan later sold control of 8chan to now-owner Jim Watkins, & eventually became a staunch opponent of both 8chan & QAnon, whose central figure, Q, posted on 8chan.

Fredrick Brennan has died, apparently in his sleep.
We went through some crazy sh*t together filming Q: Into the Storm.
Fred was one of the most complicated people I’ve ever known, his flavor of genius unmatched.
He was hilarious, occasionally dangerous and eccentric in all the best ways.

We have nihilistic 8chan edgelords in charge of our nuclear arsenal because 30% of America still isn’t over the fact the South lost the Civil War
So the president of the United States plans to meet with Putin in Hungary, and when a reporter asked where that plan came from, this was the reply of the United States government www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

8chan owner Jim Watkins says Epik, the site's domain registrar & web hosting company, has suspended Watkins' sites (including 8chan) from using Epik for violating its rules on animal cruelty content.

Amazing how all the current GOP group chats inevitably devolve into the worst Nazi aspects of 8chan, surely this isn’t a sign of what the party has morphed into
The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"
‘Nazi heaven’: Inside Miami campus Republicans’ racist group chat
The chat is the subject of a Florida International University police investigation.

When you accept that Elon Musk turned the once-Twitter into the new 8chan, the enduring presence of democratic (and Democratic) organizations on there becomes gross and delegitimizing. 8chan had normal context mixed in with the owner-approve abuse, just like X. We need to treat it the same way.
NEW: WIRED reviewed hundreds of links hosted on Grok dot com and found dozens of “nudified” deepfake images and videos, including nonconsensual depictions of celebrities, and at least one prominent US politician, months after xAI said it would stop.

Another example of the deep degeneracy of the entire Trump administration and the kind of memelord/8chan aesthetic and mentality they've brought to the government.
“You are not entitled to a response from us, or anyone, ever,” is what an Education Department spokesperson wrote to one of our reporters,
@megomatz.bsky.social, after she repeatedly tried to get comment from the department and its officials.

Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation.
Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.
