      I would say so, yeah. When that “leave Britney alone” video came out, it was universally mocked. No one was like “man this person seems upset, maybe they’re right”, it was became an iconic cringe-meme blasted on every media source, be it comedy shows, shit like South Park, websites, diss channels… all with the intent of laughing at the guy. It was like being canceled but not for doing anything wrong, just for being hilarious to make fun of.

      Definitely not the good kind of viral

        There was definitely a lot of people, especially in the queer community, who shared her video in total agreement that she hit the nail on the head.

        H8rs gonna hate, but this video was a major success for her. And for Brittany.
