It's mostly trolls trolling trolls. The person who wrote this probably did it trying to sound like some unhinged conspiracy theorist as a joke, and people probably replied as if it was a work of genius as a joke. The problem is "any community that gets its laughs by acting like idiots will soon be filled with actual idiots who believe they are in good company." There are most definitely people who believe literally everything contains coded messages from the deep state revealing their shadowy agenda of making everything gay.
