      I just think it's extremely obvious - without getting into the content of the posts at all! - that most of the content of the sub is fiction Once it became well known that it was a way to go viral and get lots of attention, it couldn't possibly be anything elsehttps://twitter.com/Nymphomachy/status/1343000164378689537 …

      Heard the argument that AITA posts describe stuff that happens frequently enough IRL that it doesn't matter if they're real or just creative writing exercises, and as somebody who has lived through dozens of things that WOULD warrant an actual AITA post, I... don't agree (1/2)

      My sister-in-law once posted a real story on that sub or a related sub, and she was accused of creating a fake story. (This helped to convince her that she was being unreasonable.)

      Yeah that's the thing. I don't trust that we can tell the truth from the fiction, given how strange truth has shown itself to be

      well, any story anywhere will get accused of being fake by someone

      Replying to @Nymphomachy @KittenBalerion @TheSoundDefense

      I think the issue is that while any story that blows up big enough will eventually get questioned, whether it gets questioned before then is purely a matter of whether people want to believe it, which isn't correlated with actual plausibility much at all

      I still vividly remember that thing from like five years ago where someone posted a completely fake story about ending up accidentally engaged to her biological half-brother Which would be an extremely wild coincidence if it happened And the media ran buck wild with it

      She said in her confession post that she promised herself she would instantly fold if anyone directly PMed her trying to get verification for her story And she made headlines in all these major publications - Buzzfeed, HuffPo, etc - for two days before this happened

      She laid out exactly how she formulated the story to go viral too - the topic, adult incest, is one people seemingly can't stay away from (Game of Thrones was in its heyday)

          She even included the proto-AITA touch of making it the fiancé's fault - he found out before she did and didn't tell her - and plaintively asking the audience if she should take him back That's AITA's secret sauce - not only allowing feedback but DEMANDING it

          It really gets me just how well she laid out her perfect crime, in detail - she spent an evening planning to become headline news and she did - and her prediction that absolutely no one would learn the necessary lesson from this also came completely true
