The comic is long done (right?) so the people still posting is the hardcore autist leftovers. A group small enough to easily get overrun by people spamming some meme like it's a grand revelation. Doesn't help that bots probably noticed the updoot farming opportunity and started spamming there too.
What outcry? Seems just like people spamming a meme than being outright concerned about it. What should change?
Nah, it's cringe because it started from some shitty teenager trying to ride the Leon one liner meme.
the meme spawned from fucking deltarune so it's obviously gonna be shiiieeeeet, But getting really butthurt over a joke is also pathethic
There was a short revival cartoon series a few years ago that gave it a semi-bump in popularity/newcomers but mostly yes the people still posting about it are the turboautismos.
So many of that movie’s fans completely miss its message, which is “have some goddamn self respect. Also don’t date high schoolers.” So much for heckin media literacy.
That's it?
They get real touchy around hasan
It's really just because she's white and pretty, the tits are just a bonus.
Idk if having AIDS is pretty.
You see that everywhere. Loads of websites used to have a 1/10 rating system (or 1/5 stars) but people would just pick 1 or 10 because they thought their opinion was the best and should weigh heavily. That's replaced with an upvote/downvote since that's what a 1-10 scale ends up being anyway if people only use 1 and 10.
I also hate this meme, not only because its unfunny as fuck but because whenever I see it I cant help but think of all those annoying faggots who obsess over grooming, "power dynamics" and pedophilia. Same losers who think 40yo dating 24yo is malicious because "your brain does not end developing until 25", and chased CallMeCarson off the internet for a crime of dating 17yo as 19yo.
Despite its flaws, I always liked Saidit's "double upvote" feature. Instead of upvote and downvote buttons, Saidit had "Insightful" and "Fun" buttons, both of which worked as upvotes, boosting threads and giving them more visibility regardless of the way the users interacted with them. It's such a simple way to prevent brigading that I wish it were more common in other communities that still use that outdated upvote/downvote system.
Yeah, ive even seen people call out the 'shes 17 scott' meme with 'urhm actually young neil ended up dating her too despite being old!!' and first of all hes a forgettable side character so who gives a shit and also hes 20, and 20 and 17 is just objectively not as weird as 23 and 17. Even complies with that '(your age/2)+7' rule.
