I could see it catching on because, well, to “rawdog” has started reaching wider lexicon, but is… very sexual in origin, to say the least. “Rog” keeps the idea but strips away the er strange beginnings of the word

Yeah it’s like, weaponisation of anecdote instincts. Most people overweigh “oh yeah that happened to my friend” when they form opinions on things. Oh yeah my friend took that class and hated it so I won’t. And you don’t trust anecdotes from, like, politicians or people you know have an agenda, but your friend, why would they lie?

And normally the anecdotes you hear are entirely random so your anecdotal bias is entirely random, y’know, just whatever happens to have happened. But with these reddit stories, 1. lots of people are lying for upvotes, and 2. even if they aren’t lying, the stories pushed to the top are the ones that people find appealing, so the sorting process pushes an agenda anyway.

And even many people who know how to, like, critically evaluate News from News Sources don’t consider social media as a news source, they think of it as a friend, and so they don’t consider thoughtfully at all. Somebody smart enough to know “ELEVEN YEAR OLD given SRS” as a Fox News headline is unreliable doesn’t necessarily know it’s probably not true as a Reddit story either. It’s dire! It’s bad!
