Closing 4chan for a joke wasn't OK.

I totally realize most people are going to disagree with me here but I feel compelled to say that closing 4chan for a joke wasn't a very kind thing to do. We have seen TONS of posts from vulnerable populations talking about how that forum is a source of support and humor in a dark time. Irony and dirtbagism aside, taking away that support without warning was not okay.

You can say I'm being silly, or humorless or reactionary. Whatever. I love the anonymity and I love that community. But sometimes I come home after dealing with ableism and our nightmare reality all day, and that forum is one of many things that make me feel better. It wasn't a good feeling to find 4chan closed for the sake of irony. Maybe that's laughable or pathetic. But for me, it's true.
