Why doesn't 4chan get referenced as the incel website of choice in tv/movies?
>>
>>218108492
Because nowadays typically our users are more attractive and well adjusted than Redditors who keep assassinating people

except that new zealand initial d guy

>>218108492
Because in popular media 4chan is viewed as a terrorist website/chatroom and basically the foyer to the dark web.

4chan is more associated in media with being a neo-nazi, whereas Reddit is more innofensive.
I've never seen Adolescense, but maybe it's more of the same in that portrayal
>>
>>218108628
but they call reddit the incel site in this show
>>
>>218108586
Why is this tho?, there's fucked up stuff in here, but nothing like those darkweb sites
>>
>>218108691
Brenton Tarrant and Christchurch
>>
>Is that a bunch of people posting without a name and face we can track down and cancel? EVIL!
>>
>>218108662
To me, neo-nazis and incels are two different things (with some people they overlap kek)
>>
>>218108746
yeah but reddit is literally the 4th most popular social media site on the web how the fuck is it an incel site lol
>>
>>218108492
Hollywood thinks that Reddit is like 4chan and that 4chan is the dark web where nazi pedophiles organize terrorist attacks
>>
>>218108772
>how the fuck is it an incel site lol
people who get no attention on Instagram flock to it
>>
>>218108492
Reddit is now responsible for more acts of mass violence than this hobby horse forum. The world would be a better place without it.

It's a mixture of things, firstly shit like picrel getting posted around, during early 4chan day, and raids on other sites (mostly for the lulz but it spread the name). The news would report shit like "the school shooter was known to frequent dangerous websites such as 4Chan." Middle-class soccer moms would hear about it and spread gossip amongst themselves exaggerating how scary 4Chan was, which then worked it's way into television and movies as a short hand for "scary hacker group" that normies could recognise. It's the same way that anyone that actually knows anything about firearms know what a magazine is, including the people that make movies, but normie audiences are used to it being call a "clip" so movies just keep using the word.
4Chan is just the normie soccer mom version of the bogeyman.

Anonymous was just a Canadian tranny and his furry comrades.

>>218108492
it does. ever watched the boys?
>>
>>218108567
>>218108707
that was infinitychan

>>218108878
I hold Reddit responsible for a lot of the shit writing in modern media. Every single line feels written by a brain programmed to recognize patterns seeking updoots.
