Memes

I think there's also an element of online spaces promoting the "extreme" version of every idea. The same way the right is so much more overt and unapologetic about racism, the "centrist" types go to the unapologetic extreme of, "The lesser evil, no matter how evil" with no concern about alienating people who aren't on board with that. It's like the one thing they get to have a "this but unironically" or "yes Chad" response to.
