The fact we have to explain this to people now makes me feel like I belong in a mental asylum.
The crazy people are the groupers. You are one of the few who can see them and not go mad.
Yes but it's so stupid and so online that even knowing what it is feels like madness.
Like, i imagine going back in time to 1999 and explaining to my grandparents anything about modern politics, and i would sound either insane or like i was fucking with them. "The guy from home alone 2?". They would make sure past-me started wearing a helmet everywhere and not taking it off for bed.
This is like that but for not-online people.
Don’t insult crazy people by comparing them to groypers.
it is healthy to leave your echo chamber from time to time. can save you some therapy.
