because its literally just being pushed by a small cult of destiny/h3h3 orbiters and their buddy who runs a doxxing company or whatever (dan saltman). Their reach is limited to a few subreddits, some parts of twitter, and manufactured articles like this one that look legit but are basically just blogs because of how forbes works. Their bs breaks containment occasionally if they come up with a convincing enough smear or clip but it has no IRL traction, and honestly isn't even that big online outside of their little bubbles where they have critical mass or complicit mods, etc.

I think social media with feedback loops like TikTok also make them think it has more motion when it’s really just the algorithm showing them what they want to see
