    I don’t get the joke. Is there some kind of online discourse that I missed out on in order to understand this? Like is this a reference to something?

    I think saying absurdly out of pocket things can be funny, but there’s gotta be some context. You can say some ghoulish neoliberal shit on here and 99% of the time people will understand it’s a joke because of the context of the website

      consider the context of twitter then. the joke is she's playing someone who is incredibly paranoid and self-absorbed and reflexively defensive towards the slightest perceived gesture of disapproval. this is the default psychic mode of so much of that site and therefore internet in general.

      and also consider that if this were a real person, it would still be really fucking funny, because holy shit what a freak.
