A sensible approach would be to require that content is tagged and child-unsave tags are hidden by default, must be enabled manually.

This is already how the site appears for me. It’s stories like these that remind me that the NSFW content is there.

Really?

I feel like a perpetually online person, but maybe not as much as I think? I missed this one, but I also don’t spend a lot of time on 4chan these days either.

I enjoyed the Vikings tv series, particularly the early seasons with Ragnar. I especially liked when they wove in religion and mysticism into the episodes. A lot of people enjoyed the series at the time, it was objectively popular. Having an interest in something well represented in popular culture does not make you a de facto racist bigot.

There’s a more likely argument to make, that within the population of white nationalist racist bigots, there’s an overrepresentation of interest/obsession with Vikings/Odinism.

I thought the phone was a knife, cause that would have also been reasonable.
