To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Homestuck 2. The message is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of phillosphy, most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head.
There’s also Dirk’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE.
As a consequence people who dislike HS2 truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Dirk existencial catchphrase “Wubba Lubba Dub Dub,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons.
I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Andrew Hussie’s genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools… how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Homestuck tattoo.
