A burnt take is a perspective or opinion expressed on social media, which used to get a lot of attention for how uncommon or controversial it was, but doesn’t anymore.
It may have been overused as a means to farm interaction, causing it to lose its shock value, or it simply may have become a more commonly-held belief among people.
It could have also fizzled out because it used to pop up a lot in not-so-civil debates among a community, and said community became bored of the conflict.
A hot take that has lost its original spark.

Commenter 1: Burnt take, everyone knows that he sucks now.
Commenter 2: I second that, just look at the quality control for Lunchly. Not to mention he put his buddy in solitary confinement and basically tortured him for views.
