People recreationally lying on tumblr is like a misinformation vaccine.
You’re exposed to false information that’s presented as if it’s true, but which has been rendered harmless by being something absurd and utterly ridiculous, and even if you do catch something from it, the response is getting ridiculed on the internet instead of getting sucked into a cult. So the next time you encounter something that sounds absolutely mindblowing, some part of your mind remembers to check the sources, because you’re not going to repeat the purple-eyes-no-periods mistake again.
Completely untrue, the only reason people lie on tumblr is from absolute malice, and the misinformation here is always fatal. Goncharov alone killed 860 trillion tumblr users. Per hour!
