how do people live with their lives being so illiterate with technology and unaware of online communities, it's not like they can't also maintain their social irl communities at the same time

because it doesn't matter
because they don't care
because they don't enjoy it
because other people have different interests than you.

This. Times hundred.
Also, not giving a shit about 4chan != being illiterate with technology.

Can you not read on your own? I clearly stated how do people have the lack of technological literacy, and conciously have a lack of awareness of online communities (not just 4chan)? Two different statements, genius. Now I apply this to western countries, because Africans have much larger problems like what are they going to eat, and ebola. In this day and age in the modern world, if you're not using the Internet and social networks/forums, you're completely hindering and crippling yourself compared to your peers.

Ok take a look at being a head at an international company for example.
Would you rather spend days at a time in order to relay a simple message, or just use skype or some other IM on the internet. Not using the internet(in terms of business ALONE, not even getting into things like mapping and data) is crippling. Not only would you be wasting so much time, you are also wasting immense amounts of cash. You couldn't get away with running a business today without the internet, it would fail. It has become so integrated with our lives(in the first world), it's basically required. You're a fuckwit.

I don't think you're fully understanding what he's saying.
Re-read slowly and analyze.

Besides the fact that it's IMPOSSIBLE to live without the internet in this day and age in a world that isn't doomed for failure and ultimately death, to limit your usage of the internet is equal to cutting off the common collective knowledge(potential intelligence/information) of society and is critical to your own well being, therefore only crippling yourself to live a shittier life plagued with poverty of knowledge and misinformation. You can't even go to school without using the internet.

everyone uses fucking facebook twitter instagram, not everyone needs to know about 4chan or even reddit, which are small throw away communities that provide no real value to people who are not interested in participating
plus, how would it take fucking days to relay a message? telephone is not internet
plenty of companies wouldn't need to use the internet, in fact Id say it would be better marketing to not use the internet at this point, because its so over saturated
edit: also youre literally contradicting yourself by saying that there are people who do not care about online groups, and then saying that by not using these groups its impossible or even damaging, when the majority of the world does not use these things

First and foremost, I never said forums. I said online communities.
Groups and communities exist within Facebook, whether it is user created groups, or interactive pages made by other users.
The bolded text in your reply only further solidifies my point of " In this day and age in the modern world, if you're not using the Internet and social networks/forums, you're completely hindering and crippling yourself compared to your peers."
I did a simple search on google about the current telephone protocols being used today by telephone companies and this is what I came up with. http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/voice-over-internet-protocol-voip
You can't even use a phone in this day and age without being connected to the internet. so your comment on the telephone not being used by the internet is invalid.
and regarding your last point, I said in a previous post, "in a world that isn't doomed for failure and ultimately death."
and to be unaware of places like 4chan and reddit is almost equivalent to being unaware of public forums like a shopping mall and downtown [insert shady city]

I knew you'd bring up voip as a technicality ( the fact you had to google it is funny ). again you're fucking yourself over in your own text " I said online communities. " then telephone does not apply to this, and people could very much so not use online communities and still communicate with one another. plus voip only applies to voip, and not standard phone connections, and you're being ethnocentric thinking that the USA is the only place that matter linking to the fcc
I dont even know what the fuck youre trying to say at this point because your points are so unintelligible. Yes, people use facebook and social media, and if they did not it would hinder their social life. but 4chan and reddit do not apply to this. 4chan is anonymous, and is completely separate from yourself and your social life, which is why many people would not use it or care about using it, because they already use social media sites that are connected to their own identity that everyone else already knows, and they do not have to build a username identity like on reddit, or on here. which is why they wouldn't know about these sites, because they have no interest in them, because not everyone does things exactly like you do.
there's literally no point in you arguing, we gave you an answer why people would not know about these sites. whether or not that is good or bad is irrelevant.
