It's like if someone had a forum where insurrectionists were discussing how to build bombs and where they were going to use them, and the owners had an internal meeting where they said, "Hey, we're hosting some pretty awful people, should we maybe report them or shut this down?" and the answer was, "Nah, they're paying users, and we want their money."

Pretty sure Section 230 wouldn't protect them, either.
