      It’s an ironic glorification of things idiots do to be “sigma” (like arguing just to win even when they realize they’re wrong) but just makes them unpleasant combined with a self-awareness that we all do this shit from time to time

        Ah it makes sense now. Google wasn’t terribly helpful. Thanks for explaining!
