Kind of was progressive, issue is that Moot thought it was a good idea to give the nazis their own place, where they begun radicalizing each other, and even planned harassment campaigns.
And even then, a lot of "4chan progressives" only learned the concept of harassment campaigns, which they turned into what many call "cancel culture". I'm not saying that all callouts are bad, but often people don't want to resolve it in private, the "resolve it in private" for the callouter means the other ceases all online presence after a dox threat in private, or at worst it's being used to get rid of an annoying creator they hated. Often all with the old 4chan-style "you can lie a little bit or more as long as you manage to control the narrative" mentality. Not to mention that the right figured out they can manipulate leftists into toxic callout campaigns.
Also if you ever seen a person saying "why don't we give a shitton of antidepressants for gender dysphoria instead of hormones?", that was either a former 4chan progressive, or was influenced by one, since a lot of people who became "mental health positive" due to Project Chanology usually did in a very performative opposition to Scientology's anti-psychiatry.
