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.
