One reason this is important is that I recall seeing clueless normies, debunking articles, and paid shills twisting the logos people found via the FBI into "just some crazy thing that came from 4chan." No, the logos go back much further in time, before 4chan even existed (duh).
Normies will accept The New York Times as gospel and indisputable over some ALLCAPS clickbait YouTube video that says the exact same thing.
Well, for the sake of correcting your ignorance, 4Chan has been around since at least 2003, having its roots in another forum called something awful which dates all the way back to the late 90s. So the fbi document from wikileaks in 2007, and this 2006 news article DO NOT predate 4chan. However if you can provide a source to a earlier mention to or something demonstrating that the symbols are indeed older, I would love to check it out. Thanks.
At Besta Pizza, many things guide us toward excellence, but nothing is as important as our commitment to quality. We pride ourselves (After 22 years in business) in providing a menu that’s prepared with only the freshest ingredients.
where was it said that EVERY instance of that symbol was for pedophilia? Because I missed it.
As far as I've read, nothing about Besta has been even insinuated besides they serve pizza and used to have a weird symbol as their logo until people harassed them about it. They even tried to frame the owner at one point but it was another guy.
