A shitty buzzword thrown around by pseudo-intellectual Reddit and Twitter users when parroting their unoriginal analyses of movies, games, tv shows, etc. that they stole from their favorite E-celeb on YouTube. They use it to insist that the shitty goyslop they consume is more profound than it really is in order to make themselves appear like intellectuals and farm upvotes on Reddit and/or likes+retweets on Twitter from other impressionable retards who read their posts.
