There was a fake story that he wrote about humping a couch in his book, Hillbilly Elegy.
It's been completely debunked, but people still talk about it because it's funny.

Theres more to it. AP published a fact check titled something like "No, JD Vance did not have sex with a couch".
Later they took this down because they were unable confirm he did not have sex with a couch, only that he did not say so in his book.
As you can guess, this added a lot of fuel to the fire.
because they are stupid
Fixed that for you.
It's because JD vance is a fucking weirdo. I didn't like pushing false stories about people, but he's just such a smarmy motherfucker it fits so well. He is a detestable person with detestable views.
No. It's clearly a stupid thing to do. Being detached from the complex truth of things is 90% of the problem with mankind, as far as politics go. I thought there was substance behind these jokes but it's all made up.
I'm sure there's plenty of real things to underscore what a massive duche Trump VP is. Making things up about him, or anybody else, should be illegal (and it is) for good reasons.

And you call others stupid... lol
I didn't mean to generalyze. You are clearly stupid, since you can't imagine a world where, I don't know, Jordan Peterson has hidden in Russia to go on a drug induced coma to fix his drug addiction and there's some tangential validity to one VP potential pansexual urges.
You are clearly stupid since you don't understand what a joke is, and since you don't know how to write the word "generalize".
You are mixing ignorance with stupidity. I'm ignorant.
You know who else gets accused of not getting jokes? Lefties liberal snowflakes. Rings any bell?
This isn't Truth Social.
You just fixed my ignorance, thanks.
