Not everything on the chans is a joke which is why they like to pretend that it is. It's basic obfuscation. Very often, a long running joke will pick up genuine ardent supporters and the original joke becomes lost or forgotten. It's a peculiar process to watch. The chans relationship with social media like Twitter is like Agent Smith is to Neo, a balancing of the equation. Twitter for instance has become so emotionally charged and blood hungry that any opposition to the rhetoric has become equally as charged. It's very dangerous when full-time contrarians become martyrs. Like yourself, I just try and keep my distance from it all and observe from a distance.
