    I remember reading an article that “strange” things get attention and clicks (as long as they’re not too objectionable) because they set themselves apart from the flood of regular “hot girl loves huge dick” kind of titles. And once momentum starts building then everyone starts jumping on till it becomes an odd self sustaining trend. I can’t find the article now. Now the data shows everyone is clicking step-porn and your chances of getting a click on “normal” porn are much lower, so this is what everyone makes now.

    The weird point being made in this article as a backlash to “meritocracy” doesn’t really make sense to me.
