The Billy Carson Effect

A combination of the Streisand Effect, Mandella Effect and the Dunning-Krueger Effect all rolled into one. When a person is too dumb to admit defeat and they cope so hard it glitches the matrix. Named after the famous crash out of Billy Carson in 2024 which led to everyone making reaction streams to his insane doubling down and denial of reality.

"Dude take your L like a man and move on, you don't wanna invoke The Billy Carson Effect and make it worse."
