I think you’re overgeneralizing a community that intrinsically resists introspection, but even if we entertain your premise, an aim to violate norms for “lulz” doesn’t preclude the platform from incubating real damaging disinformation. In fact, because the aim of the chans is orthogonal to truth or accuracy, it’s a more fertile plot than any on which to grow disinformation.
