Description
The terrorist posted a manifesto and a live stream link on an obscure image board just minutes before the attack, urging users to “do their part by spreading my message.”
Journalist Joey Watson investigates the online community of 4chan, and finds how a once-creative part of the internet was taken over by far-right extremists, desensitizing each other towards violence.
Joey sifts through newly unearthed posts made anonymously by the terrorist, finding a crucial shift in his radicalisation journey.
