What is Chronically online?

Any take that is so obscenely outside the realm of normal human discourse that it could solely happen in an internet echo chamber. The kinda take that you only hear on social media sites like reddit, where you can curate exactly who you're talking too, so you know that at any given moment, everyone agrees with your ridiculous take, thus enabling you to go even more insane.

Expect it to be coming from a dumbass 14 year old who's punching it in on their iPad, cause if they said it irl, their parents would smack them upside the head and then change the wifi password.

Not necessarily political, but often, and not necessarily on any side of any political group, but typically leftist or libertarian.

"Hey, child slavery should be legal, cause it's not the government's job to prevent it. I mean... it's still wrong and we should shame people for doing it, but let's legalize it. Just on principle."

"Oh my god, that was the most chronically online take I've ever heard, where'd you get that one, the Libertarian party of New Hampshire's twitter?"
-----------------------
"Personally I think that it's absurd we allow men to give out the nobel prize, it just makes them solely choose advancements that benefit them. They should be exclusively for women or nonbinary people."

"FFS, I know that you heard that in a 400 reply twitter thread when you were scrolling through that app all day last night."

Chronically online - what is it?

a term used for an extremely sensitive and selfish individual who has become so engulfed in both cancel culture and the internet that they become completely out of touch with real life. usually social rejects and with 0 skills to put to use in the real world, their goal is to make life easier for everyone and to eradicate all forms of “hate” and -ism when in reality, they’re making it worse. essentially someone who won’t make it through life without having to find something to be offended by.

may also be noted that most people described as chronically online almost definitely don’t apply this attitude when they’re not sitting behind a screen. they’re also infamous for not educating someone on what they’re doing wrong and just jumping to the conclusion of cancelling them. they overlook actual important issues and nitpick at things they are PERSONALLY offended by.

A: “please put a trigger warning for water!!” “don’t say ‘asf’ it’s offensive” “put a trigger warning for capital letters please” “this isn’t the hot take you think it is 😐”

B: “oh my god you are so chronically online”
