>>1347952>The average normie-saying frogposter spends most of his time talking about roasties and beta uprisings and President Donald J. Trump, he's not the sort of person who wants to be perceived as politically correct.True to an extent, but you're forgetting these people have a sizable, if not primary presence on social media. It's likely they became used to "normie" before they ever visited 4chan. And when they got to 4chan in 2016, who do learn from? The other kids that got there a few weeks before them.
It also seems likely that a post with "fag" in it wouldn't get shared as much for internet points so there's that too.
