If this is a subject that interests you, I'd recommend reading Angela Nagle's Kill All Normies: Online culture wars from 4chan and Tumblr to Trump and the alt-right[1]. It's a really level-headed look at online identity politics. It's an extension of her The Baffler article "The New Man of 4chan"[2], from last year which went into /r9k/, but in her book she analyzes both "sides" (4chan and tumblr, if you will) which I thought was really interesting analysis, even considering I watched it all unfold as it was happening.
