    I don’t understand this weird Lemmy fascination with over-analyzing and breaking down shitposty jokes.

      It’s strange that you don’t understand over-analyzing on Lemmy. It’s a fairly frequent occurrence and the act of participating here implies a willingness to subscribe to that particular culture a significant part of which is over-analyzing things. Perhaps if you could you’d prefer to reject the over analytical nature of the site but by becoming a member of the community you become a part of the culture wholesale. I guess in that sense if you don’t give in to that part of the culture you will in fact change it so maybe by you being here and not understanding it, over analysis becomes slightly less a part of the intrinsic culture of Lemmy.

      (just in case. This is meant to be a joke)

        I said I didn’t understand it, not that I was upset over it but okay.
