I think the problem is more that Tyson is "uMm AcHtUaLlY"ing in a way to try and be cool or funny, but it doesn't come off as cool or funny what-so-ever. It's just irritating.

If its irritating then why bother engaging with it. There is a point where you can just ignore it because in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't change anything (or at least it shouldn't).

Idk I think he does it in some misguided attempt to try to educate people. I agree it is obnoxious though.
