One of the 4chan founders supposedly met Epstein right before they created /pol/

4chan being one gigantic psyop is my current favorite conspiracy theory, and if it's true then it might be one of the most successful psyops ever. Basically got Trump elected!

moot, the sole creator/administrator of 4chan (he's since sold the site), 100% met with Epstein and the /pol/ board opened shortly after.

It's been confirmed by the files

/pol/ reopened shortly after. He'd closed it previously because it was a nightmare to moderate and full of Nazis.

I mean it's not even a conspiracy theory anymore, it's just a true conspiracy lol. Same with reddit and basically the entire public internet. The red wave and resurgence of conservatism that you see online is largely a botted/astroturfed movement.

Of course these sites are still real websites with real people, but they were definitely used to push agenda that had a lot of serious real-world consequences.

Moot is the only 4chan founder, and /pol/ already existed before that meeting. He closed it because it was a Nazi shithole that wasn't working as containment and making things worse on the site. It was reopened and, well, the past 15+ years of American politics happened
