I love 😬 that we're now at the point where "is this real?" is ambiguous between:

  • did the story factually occur in our shared reality?
  • was this story actually posted to 4chan?
  • did a human even make this image?

And at this juncture with the common addition of "chat, is this real?" we can further add:

  • does the audience exist?
  • does the person sharing the image exist?
  • do I exist?
  • source
  • parent
