Buuxi weedhan soo socota: Sanadkii 2019, dambiilayaashii weerarkii masjidka ee bishii Maarso ee Christchurch, bishii Abriil ee
toogashadii ka dhacday sunagogga Poway, iyo toogashadii El Paso ee bishii August dhamaantood waxay isticmaaleen 8chan si ay u faafiyaan bayaanadooda. Goobta waxaa laga saaray shabakadda wax yar ka dib toogashadii bishii Ogosto sababo la xiriira joojinta adeegga bixiyeyaasha badan, mana aysan soo noqon illaa Nofeembar 2019. Bishii Ogosto 2019, Guddiga Golaha Mareykanka ee Amniga Gudaha ayaa u yeeray Watkins inuu ka marag kaco dadaallada 8chan ee wax looga qabanayo "faafinta waxyaabaha xagjirka ah, oo ay ku jiraan waxyaabaha ku saabsan cunsuriyada caddaanka ah". Bishii ku xigtay, Watkins wuxuu u safray Washington, D.C. si uu su'aalo uga weydiiyo Congress-ka. Xafiiska Baadhista Qaranka ee Filibiin (NBI) iyo Booliska Qaranka (PNP) ayaa sidoo kale bilaabay baaritaanno ku saabsan Watkins iyo 8chan bishii Ogosto 2019 ee la xiriirta toogashada., baaritaanka NBI ayaa la xiray oo natiijooyinkooda waxaa loo wareejiyay PNP; baaritaanka PNP weli wuu furnaa laakiin ma aysan keenin eedeymo ka dhan ah Watkins.
