While ostensibly autonomous, Kannercore exhibits notable overlaps with the Dutch cultural phenomenon known as the "Neppe Shit Show." Some scholars posit a causal relationship, suggesting that the emergence of the Neppe Shit Show is intricately linked to the antecedent influence of Kannercore. Kannercore is also infamous for its contrarianism towards popular memes of the past, such as "Arthur's Fist," "Dat Boi," and "Primitive Spongebob," The disdain towards these mainstream memes within Kannercore can be attributed to a desire for authenticity and originality. rather than stale memes that where often a product of 9GAG, Tumblr and Facebook Rather than participating in the rapid consumption and replication of easily digestible internet content, This preference aligns with the broader ethos of the Kannercore movement, which values individuality and nonconformity over conformity to prevailing trends.
While elements of Kannercore may have permeated Viadalvian cultural spheres to a certain extent, the converse phenomenon wherein Viadalvian cultural motifs significantly impacted Kannercore remains negligible.
