I think we underestimate how much online stuff leaks into the real world. Look at that post today (one of many similar posts) with some YouTuber shit written on a Ukranian shell.
Think of how much time most people spend online. Think of how prevalent it is to share memes and such with real-life friends in group chats. Look at stuff like this. Look at all the merging of online media and traditional media (podcasts are a huge part of this). Do we really think most people wall all of that off from the rest of their brains?
