I don't think they're saying the word fetch means irrelevance. They're saying fetch is something irrelevant. :)


> for the “fetch”-aware audience, the title reads, “Raft Is *Irrelevant* [...]”

No, they're claiming that "fetch" is interchangeable with "irrelevant" according to the movie.


"You love him, and he totally complimented you. That is so fetch."

This is clearly not stating that the actions by both parties are "irrelevant", it's clearly slang for "cool" or "awesome". The movie was alluding to the word itself being irrelevant in its use, not the word meaning or being synonymous with "irrelevant". I hope this cleared things up for you.
