I'm fascinated by this too! I wonder how much of it is really, truly, believing, and how much of it is just thinking life is "better" when you believe. It's worth it just to constantly argue and stand up for your fantasy with other people who believe it, especially when your fantasy fits so well into your fanfic fantasies...

Though some of those Larry shippers seem completely sincere. It's like the next tinhat evolution.

I've always wondered the same thing, and I actually believe that they just want their fanfics to become real life...
But I also always wondered how "life is better" if they believe their otp are hiding their relationship from the world? I mean, this is quite a shitty situation to be in, this is real people we're talking about, don't they just want happiness for them?
I guess I'll just be forever confused.

I think the "we just want our OTP to be happy" justification quickly gets forgotten. It's not as fun, you see. Then you'd have to acknowledge that they are real people with agency who you are hurting with your behaviour.

I suppose it's like any conspiracy theory, it makes life simultaneously simpler and more exciting. I'm almost curious enough to go look at what psychologists say about conspiracy theorists in general, but psychology isn't really my area of interest. I'm sure there's something out there!

Saying Larry shippers are an "evolution" of any kind is giving them too much credit, I think. Just because it's even easier for them to harass their ~OTP~ on Twitter, it doesn't make them any different from the Domlijah tinhats at heart.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree they are just as bad, if not worse. What I meant was that even though I find it hard to believe the vast majority of tinhatters are true believers, the Larry shippers skew young enough that I can buy their sincerity.
