What Does This Mean?
The practice of making schizoposts: fragmented, disjointed or conspiratorial posts, often with dense symbolism and disturbing imagery, usually produced as post-ironic humour or horror rather than by someone in a real crisis. The word derives from a clinical term and is used jokingly or pejoratively; critics say it can stigmatise mental illness.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
""The account does nothing but schizoposting about satellites between its normal posts.""
LORE & ORIGIN
Wikipedia describes schizoposting as popular on Twitter, 4chan and Reddit, especially in alt-right communities, categorises it as an internet meme introduced in 2021, and cites researchers who link its prevalence to algorithmic radicalisation as well as critics who say it desensitises people to violence and stigmatises schizophrenia. Wiktionary lists it as the intransitive verb form of schizopost, with dated citations from 2022.
