  This really annoys me, especially on Reddit r/conservative and r/conspiracy subreddits are full of images. Not even images of articles, but just images of headlines. And you have massive discussions about it

  Another popular thing is a screenshot of a tweet, most often posted by a complete nobody.

    I enjoy the replies… You’ll have AOC, Elon, Trump etc make some statement… And then Rando McRando will have a reply back to them.

    Like bruh(ette)… no way in the world do these celebrities with massive followers read your reply… it just falls into the void that is the 99+ for notifications

  Repetition … all the time, every where and every place

  Do it enough times and you can convince people to embrace Satan himself.

    That reminds me of this study I read that anyone will believe anything that looks like a screenshot of a reputable news article.

  This makes me wonder what would happen if you took the content off some celebrity-focused website like say TMZ but changed the formatting to make it look like New York Times articles.

  Like, the “gravitas” of the NY Times politics section with content like “Guess Whose Shirtless Selfie!”

  Got as far as “you people” before I realized it was BS. Think they forgot the “reputable” part of their own claim… 'cause this ain’t it.
