Yes it was you underage fuck. The fact people shitpost at the time doesn't mean it wasn't also used for genuine conversation. What you're not understanding is the shitposting was sincere as well. In serious discussions, people posited opinions they actually held instead of either what the "common consensus" believed, and in shitposting people said things they intended to be funny.
If you can't find the difference between a shitpost saying METAL GEAR with a picture of a metallic gear and the MGS related jokes that continued that conversation, and the modern shitpost that's something to the tune of "what did he mean by this?" with a twitter screencap or a "this thing is trannies/jews/negros/indian yes this very thing that people like is for these bad people don't you feel shame for liking it now?" (but typed in a manner befitting one whose IQ scores below 80), you're a lost cause.
