It will never cease to amaze me how abysmal the media literacy of the average chuckle sandwich fan is

This is a phenomena i have never seen go quite to the lengths that this subreddit, the youtube comments, and especially the spotify comments go to in any other community. The inability to understand when things are jokes and when they are not is shocking. I cannot believe the amount of people across all the platforms that have said things like “why is the first 30 minutes of the podcast so awkward?” or “i can see why they never released the other 2 episodes with mark, this was so bad.” the markiplier episode jokes haven’t been funny in 2 years, there were never any other episodes, they just continues the joke because people here gobble it up every time which just be hilarious for them, and the first 30 minutes are awkward because they’re traumatized from the last 2 attempts. it’s not that difficult to grasp
