Internet Bloody Knuckles
Arguing online about a topic that is dead. Everyone who's had any interest in the topic has heard everything there is to say. Everyone has made up their mind. Nobody is on the fence. The fence isn't even there anymore. The fence was there to distinguish the sides from each other, but y now it doesn't matter who is standing where. The topic is dead.
This is aptly named after a "game" where two people care way too much about what their peers think of them, to an extent where they take turns punching each other's fists and pretending it doesn't hurt. Everyone watching holds back their laughter while these two people wreck a body part they'll need for the rest of their lives (these are normally kids, and injuring the skeleton before it's finished growing is very harmful. It affects the growth and can cause deformations) because they think it makes them look like badasses, rather than dumbasses.
Who is told that they won Bloody Knuckles is up to house rules, but nobody really wins Bloody Knuckles. Nobody wins Internet Bloody Knuckles either. They think they won, based on whatever (like house rules), but all they really did was stress themselves out. Everyone else took one look at the topic, knew everything that would be said, and just moved on. Unlike the original Bloody Knuckles, Internet Bloody Knuckles can have any number of players, but even 2 is too many.
Now their real problems (which can actually be mitigated) will be harder to deal with.

Person 1: "The fictional character in this lewd drawing is not 18."
Person 2: "Guys, can we not play Internet Bloody Knuckles again? I can't in good conscience look the other way anymore. At this point it's as painful to think about as it is to watch. Go work out or study or stab water with a pencil. Anything but this."
Person 3: "They're not a real person."
Person 2: "Balls... 🤦"
