>>13922511No shit 4chan's inherent contrarian streak is part of it, but that isn't the only reason. If that were the only reason the reaction wouldn't be so autistic generally. V-tuber fans are fucking insane and any threads about them should be made on boards where they're appropriate (/vt/, /v/, /trash/, /jp/), yet this kind of attitude is applied to any e-celeb whatsoever. It doesn't matter the context, there's someone throwing a fucking fit over it.
>>13922512I've never seen anyone on this site bring up e-celebs to worship them. Proper celebs yes, but it's mostly just the occasional 'oh hey I like such and such's content'. Most of the times when someone starts to dramawhore they're run off quickly unless it's a dogshit board like /v/.
>look at fucking kf and vt fucks sakeBoth of those places are inhabited by literal shitflinging gibbons whose only joy in life is making fun of shitty/downtrodden people to feel better about themselves or stirring up astroturfed controversy because they have no other meaningful hobbies. Though those are the exact kind of people modern 4chan does seem to attract, so you have a fair point.
