You're not looking at it the right way.

The way to make it make sense: there is a large group of people out there who essentially, have failed to launch. They are unemployed or have deadend jobs. They watch tons of internet porn but may have never had sexual intercourse with a woman. They have few or zero real life friends. They are obese or feeble-bodied. They have no real life skills or vital energy. The one way they can feel alive, like a "player character," is by hitting someone, but not in a boxing gym (see above), on the Internet.

The Norm Macdonald tweet isn't "triggering," they've already been triggered and are looking for their next victim. The Norm Macdonald Tweet is like raising your hand and saying "it's me."

That seems laughably reductive. Your stereotypes are cringe inducing.

Weird stuff about weight and virginity aside, I don't find it reductive to say there are people who have wasted their lives and can't process it well. This is a pretty apt description of a certain demographic on Steam. I've spent time in a lot of clans and it's pretty shocking to find what underachieving people are willing to do to people online if they encourage each other.
