Anon grew out of 4chan 10 years ago. The_Donald is (loosely, I think) associated with /pol. The assertion that Anonymous turned into TD is absolutely absurd. Critical thinking depends on making distinctions, not squinting and lumping as much as you can into a bucket.
- eli_gottlieb 9y agoThe point is not that Anon and /pol/ are the same group. The point is that there's nothing structural about anonymous online fora that necessarily gives rise to a politics centered around personal rights and freedoms. It can just as easily go to mob authoritarianism as to individualism.
