Person 1: I feel X
Person 2: by X do you mean Y or Z?

shitposting is important because sincerity is too limited by frame to be understandable widely. the need to parse levels of humor and different frames in shitposting allows for a multitude of projections and interpretations which you can use to speak to multiple audiences
