It’s kind of like when a 35 year old hears some kids saying “rizz” and then the 35 year old starts saying “rizz” as a joke and then eventually the 35 year old is saying rizz unironically.
They think “oh I’m just being silly and joking” but eventually the culture has influenced them and they don’t know why.
EVERY ironic haha we’re just joking subreddit has degraded over time into sincerity. Even spaces that were intended to ridicule something, such as the Star Wars prequels, later became sincere.
