Dogolachan
Marcelo Valle Silveira Mello, also known by aliases such as Psycl0n, is a Brazilian individual who has been imprisoned for various offenses including hate crimes. He is known for his support of pedophilia and racism, and for sharing violent content. He founded Dogolachan as a space "for his particular brand of free speech."
Since the roots of the chans lie in the otaku subculture, manga and anime are still popular topics of discussion. Imageboards are considered particularly unfriendly compared to other internet forums. Provocations, trolls, cyberbullying, shock images, pornography, racism, sexism and political extremism are part of many chans and are usually not punished unless they violate the law.
