>>2597037Yeah, fear of another /pol/ harbour is why the mods are reluctant to do anything. I'm willing to bet that fear is partially why /bant/ was even created in the first place.
If one person who really cared took charge and hired on some mods/jannies who wanted to do good for the site, we could weather /pol/ harbor 2.0 and /b/day 2.0. I don't think 4chan as it was in the golden age would ever come back, but a new generation of anons could forge a new identity for the site without compromising the traditions and culture upon which it was built.
