This post is an awkward read because it carries an outdated tacit assumption that the bulk of this posting activity is organic engagement - as opposed to merely some new flavor of shit being thrown at the wall by bot-propagandists, which then happens to resonate with some small segment of strung out people. The analysis still does apply for why those specific people are drawn to such a refrain, but the situation lacks the weight of a cultural trend implied by "tells us more about them than it does about us". Rather it is better off seen as a subculture - there is no counterveiling force of people disagreeing with the narrative and arguing against it (en masse), because most simply ignore it and go elsewhere.
