[ SLANG ][ COPING_BEHAVIOR ][ NOUN ]
Posting deliberately upbeat or dismissive content specifically to mask a real loss or disappointment, extending 'cope' from a single reaction word into a recognized posting genre.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"That whole thread is just cope posting after the trade went wrong, nobody's buying the 'I meant to do that' energy."
LORE & ORIGIN
Extends the existing 'cope' concept into a specific posting behavior, the same way 'mood-posting' formalized 'vibe-saturation' into a posting genre.
