This. I find it hard to believe that these are really just spur-of-the-moment shitposts. May not be very systematically choreographed (although I wouldn't be surprised if so) but even the stupidest troll plays the audience. People just can't help but feed the trolls.
They are playing everyone and loving it. They have both never felt better.
