m00t, 4chan's founder and longtime owner, modded a bunch of SJWs a couple of months after the GamerGate scandal broke, told them to wipe any mention of GamerGate from the site, and announced his retirement from mod duty. At the time, it was thought that a SJW girl he was dating was the cause of this drastic change, but in retrospect, bigger powers may have been responsible. Either way, the site was sold soon afterwards to a Japanese investor, but the SJW mods remain in power, and may be getting their marching orders from someone other than the site owner, who probably only barely understands the subtleties of the culture war motivating this censorship.
