I don't get how people complain about the current state of the board when the absolute worst was in 2020-2021 and i can quantify it for you.
Currently this board has 450 archived posts in the last 3 days. That's healthy for a literature board. Two years ago there was 1000-1100 and as you can imagine all of them were shitposts and there were daily metathreads, now you get it once per week.
The only issue i see now is that /lit/ has no identity anymore. Instead there is only an amalgamation of /mu/, /x/ and /tv/ shitposting and the ones feeding them.

you can call it whatever you want but 4chan has never stood for the corporate shilling that the left is doing today. maybe you could argue that the people here in the 2000's were "left" leaning at the time, but those same people would be considered "right" today.
the political inversion started when Edward Snowden became a whistleblower. his actions at the time would be considered left. but today, the left supports the deepstate and people on the right are the ones defending freedom and privacy, which is what the left used to do.
therefore, go fuck yourself. eat shit and die. and go back to the trannie hole from which you came from. btw, I still call traps traps instead of calling them "women"

This isn't exactly racism agitators counting out how many brown people in the cast of any specific tv show. They're basically doing the same thing as the klansman at the union meeting bemoaning their jobs being taken, it's virtually a trope, and there's no way of knowing how much engagement they're getting online or if all of it is a bit more like the Manhattan Communist Party.

The cringe atheists of the 2010s are now the cringe Christians of today. Same energy, same afflictions, same reasons they profess to believe it. At least Hitchens was funny when he shittalked. Peterson, despise some very insightful literary analysis and secular uplifting works has now become the very thing he set out not to be. His focus on very insightful thinkers and philosophers is now gone and so too is his relevancy.

All things come to an end, OP. Most of the old users of 4chan have moved on with their lives, and probably look back fondly on their time here.
