I’m genuienly convinced at this point that you could apply a sociological analysis framework of ‘religion’ to branded platform fanboys and conclude that they are indeed religions.
Rituals? Shibboleths? Group Identity vs Other? Apologia/Theology? Divine symbology? Appeal to transcendental authority?
Yep yep and yep.
