When did 4chan lose its political clout? We used to be feared as the final boss of the internet and somehow have lost all potency and relevance.
>>542611973
>>542611973Sometime in 2020 or so, all the redditors and breadtube fans lost their fear of le evil hacker 4chan and they started to come here to spam their shit. Good thing they are still scared of alt-chans such as 8ch, though.

As for the "when"? Gradually. Ever since the beginning.
>>542611973> When did 4chan lose its political clout? When newfags couldn’t triforce and stopped lurking. Fucking summer.
>>542612208>>542612349picrel>>542611973>>542612144yeah we old. most ancientfags are late 40s early 50s, late GenXers. I been on this burmese shitrag washing forum since '05, when the camwhores were plentiful and you could summon mootykins.
Leading up to 2016 and beyond the flood of low IQ trash from reddit and other sites watered down most of 4chan. Also, on /pol/ mods undermined all efforts to discuss topics and at the time any efforts to interact with other sites. Mods intentionally allowed niggers to raid and spam /pol/Mods ultimately are to blame and the rest are you worthless goddamn spineless niggers who are here today are trash

>>542612865The times just prior, before that the miggers all showed up, and spammed their give me your energy slop and it's an awoovement type memetardation, those times were beautiful to me.Every single day was yet another autistic person debunking racial egalitarianism and dropping pure dissertation levels of Race Realism threads.Every day the board had at least two threads full of JQ related infographics, and actual people debated with cringy troons and commie faggots and endlessly btfo'd them over and over. It only grew based sentiments.The Ron Paul idealists became based. The Jew became scared, and the commie was driven away to go be gay somewhere else.I actually wasn't all that impressed by much of the far earlier true ancient-fag stuff, the 2011-12 stuff. A good bit of it was just geek/weeb culture to me.The true period of time, where the /pol/'s icon was decently representative of the anons, where the commies were btfo'd, the lolbergs took 2nd seat? That was the most based of times to me.Then the miggers and the Jewbots came and turned everything cuckolded and gay.
The actual answer hasn't been said yet.
>>542611973It didn't. 4chan memes and political views were adopted by the mainstream. Elon Musk bought Twitter and gave them a place where they wouldn't be censored and shadowbanned which shined a light in the censorship of other platforms and has opened them up to a lesser degree, freeing channers from their echo chamber and unleashing them on the world. This is what success looks like.

>>542616292Cucked isn't filtered retard
I couldn't give you an exact date, but I think it has to do with the internet becoming a lot more centralized and incestuous. Back in the day everyone mostly stayed in their own little obscure communities. Now 4chan is full of people it hated, like gaiafags and redditors, just reposting shit they saw on xitter or reddit. There's no unique identity anywhere anymore.

Just /b/ tier stupidity no one remembers nor cares about, you didn't define anything. Tripleposting like a subhuman retard itt.>>542616922Oh I'm wrong then.

some of the wordfilters change the word, others block the post, others are autobansa lot of times trying to post a link that got spammed at lot at some point gets an autoban
6 day ban if it actually was that word, you can tell which one got to him, lol
>>542617252oh, sorrywhat about quadrupleposting
>>542611973>>542612111>>542612108it was 2016 even though that was the height of the fear, once that happened 4chan stopped being a den of shitheads and became the epic poster wing of the republican party.

And it made the jannies noivous, since the little politically normie bitches can't debate for shit. They went crawling, and begging like weakling effeminate hogs for jannie to contain away the bigots. So they could be big faggots together easier without their feelings spilling out from their eyes.Jannie, oh, oh jannie please my booty is blasted like a hula hoop going against all these racists with my cuck views, oh please keep them away jannie.Kek as I said no one cared about these niggers. They could go fuck off, there's like 40 places to go talk about their top 3 favorite magic girl animes or post their coom bottles.Make them raaage to hate a nigger and a kike though. Makes that big mad come out.Because they are faggots.
>>542618860>literally 100 million phonefagsgrim

>>542611973Normies were very not used to internet culture and 4chan memes back then, so when they saw 4chan style humor, it intimidated and confused them. Now that kind of memery and humor is everywhere. Even normies understand it, and are no longer intimidated by it.

>>542611973right after the He Will Not Divide US and the capturing of the Flag and right after the coordinates to bomb some towelhead. Boomers and spics than the poojeets took over and 4chan will never be the same. Because once you are here you are here for life.

>>542611973>When did 4chan loseSometime between when people started ignoring rules 1 & 2, and when people forgot or simply never even knew they existed.>political cloutTo be precise , it was the 2016 election cycle.4chan was always inundated with lots of outsiders trying to understand it just so they could weaponize it. The casual canned response was and should always be "not your personal army." What made 4chan so feared was anyone foolish enough to try to use 4chan for their personal reasons often became the target of 4chan ire itself. It was a wild horse that could not be tamed. Even the so called Scientology raids used Epic Fail Guy masquerading as Guy Fawkes to be their mascot. Little known inside humor that everyone "cheering" for this was secretly hoping/waiting for it to fail in an epic way.But 2016 is when things changed. This place got flooded seemingly overnight with newfags who wanted nothing more than to be Trumps personal army. The newfags with their Trump fervor drowned out every one else, and it sorta got normalized or pushed out everyone else. They got what they wanted in the end. They learned how to weaponize 4chan. You just gotta flood it with people who don't belong here.

fucking plasma cannon into reality nobody could keep in their hands and aim straight
the "political clout" of early 4chan was a double edged sword. while it made many people feel smug and important and very powerful, in the end it created an environment where 4chan was known by anyone and everyone, and people would talk about going there to be edgy. eventually more and more folks came in, with that, the site became less and less creative and more conformist.4chan also is and always has been a chaotic pool of people coming to the site for various different reasons, and many of the oldfags took various different paths in life. i was into 4chan for anime stuff and thus ended up trooning out. there were the people here for trolling, who probably grew out of it. there were the pedophiles here for CP prior to /b/-day, who probably got v&. there were the chanology faggots who became armchair activists. there were the folks from /n/, /new/ and /pol/ who became National Socialists. Then there were the robots or "gentlemen" from /r9k/ who probably ended up killing themselves, and then here and there the various normal folks who ended up having respectable careers and lives. as people grow older, as the site grows older, and more people go their separate ways, new people take their place and change the site completely, and it may lose what made it what it once was. just how it goes
>>542611973Because you jews and jeets or other subhumans kvetching over this site for some time.
