From reporting by The Daily Dot.
Conservative psychologist/alt-right guru Jordan Peterson officially announced that he is launching what he calls a "free speech platform" known as Thinkspot.
Peterson insists that Thinkspot will adhere to his principles of anti-censorship so strongly that the platform will only ban or remove users if it is ordered to do so by the U.S. court of law. Because there's no way that could go horribly wrong.
Peterson also mentioned that Thinkspot will have a minimum word count as opposed to a maximum. "If minimum comment length is 50 words, you're gonna have to put a little thought into it," Peterson said to the right-wing outlet NewsBusters. "Even if you're being a troll, you'll be a quasi-witty troll."
Thinkspot is being marketed as a creator-to-consumer payment processor such as Patreon while also serving as an alternative to services such as Twitter and YouTube.
Thinkspot has an intended release date of August 2019.

The chans have existed far before the current right-wing movements. 4chan goes through phases but basically exists as a counter culture. It used to be liberal under Bush, evolved libertarian by the end, and has moved to the right with Trump. As the culture became more acceptable of trannies, pedophiles, and abortion the chans liberal opinion eroded and they became increasingly hard right against the spread of degeneracy.

Can't tell if it is meant to be funny. The chans are the very hives of degeneracy.
