Twitter Funnel Effect

When two people on the Twitter platform have two contradictory opinions, only for someone to say that the same two opinions came from one entity; thus the person labeling that entity as a walking contradiction.
Person 1: Why is it that Twitter thinks that cats are great, but then says that cats are the worst creature on Earth?
Person 2: Dude, I think that’s just the Twitter Funnel Effect in play. Those are Tweets from two different people.

The Rucka Effect

Describes a cause-and-effect scenario of reposting media that is deemed offensive by social media platforms, and removed from said platforms, i.e., forbidden fruit content; the more it's censored and taken down, the more people will wish to view it, and the more people will want to upload it for others to consume and redistribute, as described below.

This, in theory, is the basis of Shitposting, and the basis of memery in general.

Derives from when parody rapper Rucka Rucka Ali's fandom, Rucka's Nuckas, began re-uploading his videos to YouTube, after YouTube banned the original postings on his own YouTube channel, such as his music video of his parody of Macklemore's "Thrift Shop", "I'm Osama".
The Rucka Effect is in full swing - a new Nazi Pug video has been banned from YouTube, but it's only made it more popular!
