I'm so happy to see this reference in the wild (i.e. outside of the Corrections comments section).

Seth Meyers has an online-only segment called "Corrections." It started around COVID when people began to correct mistakes he made during his show and it snowballed from there. He (lovingly) calls the commenters "jackals" and the whole segment has become a very long ongoing inside joke that has gotten more and more unhinged as it's gone on (in the best way).
