Attack? Nah. Honestly I'm glad 4chan created /v/niggers. It pushed an important issue straight to the front of the queue. Now we know how he responds to speech he doesn't like. Now we know not to waste our time building communities here.
I'm from reddit. My username is the same. Feel free to look it up. I was genuinely interested in building out alternative subs for people who don't like reddit's corporate/political/censorious nature. I don't participate in any racist subreddits there, and I wouldn't have done so here.
One thing I WOULD have done here, is support the open platform for free speech that it could have been. Seeking to sanitize/purge 'bad' elements from a site for open discussion is a lousy way to get the ball rolling.
This decision told me everything I needed to know about how this site will play out. I won't stick around to see it.

Ironic, considering you own /v/shitwhoaversesays to censor any criticism similar to what /r/shitredditsays provides on reddit. Eg, you support free speech, but only when the people talking agree with you.
