In outside society, sure, but the internet?

Anyone who does something they don't want to do just to appear cool on the internet is an idiot, though it's no mystery that most internet users are idiots so you could be right.

But anyone who says those kinda things must not object to what they're saying if they're not saying it out of irony. Would a bleeding hurt liberal want to conform to a group of a racist neo cons? Of course not.

I guess the best explanation is that a lot of people just don't have any views on anything to call their own so they adopt other people's opinions out of coolness. But why anyone considers youtube commenters cool enough to imitate is beyond me.
Yes but we're talking about the general public here.
The kind of people who use text speak and are more interested in who wins Britain / America / Uzbekistan's got talent than who the leader of their country is.
