>>16460267>4chan is only really popular outside of western nations now a days4chan has never been "popular", at most its been "notorious".
At the same time, /a/ is a cornerstone of Manga and Anime discussion in the West and arguably boards like /v/, /tv/, /tg/, /k/ and /o/ contribute a substancial amount of rhetoric to their respective hobbies.
>West after it got associated with the alt-right movement and Trump and linked to violent events such as the Charlottesville incident and Christchurch massacreNormal people don't care about these things, they have already forgotten most of these. Tumblr and Twitter users are not normal people
>No normie would dare associate themself with this dangerous community"dangerous" community because people over here say retard faggot nigger kike that would be career ending for e-celebs, who are the current main driving force of internet community.
15 years ago most discussion was on forums.
Now its in some e-celebs discord.
reddit and tumblr/twitter are much more "popular", but what matters to online discussion are terminally online retards, and 4chan has a percentually much higher share of such individuals, for better and worse.
