Welp just blocked someone after they followed me because I looked at their timeline and there was something sus as fuck on there about t-posing being supposedly "racist and violent".
Which immediately had me going "...this is either bad satire, or some 4channer hoax bullshit they're trying to pass off".
Suspicions confirmed the now exfollower is some kinda shitty scummy fuck when I looked at the people they follow. Yikes. Fuck that noise.
I mean the Medium article in question was written by "The Classy Libertarian", was the only article they'd ever written, and they had that crap "don't tread on me" flag as their profile picture.
A google search alone told me that this was a hoax BY 4chan to spread misinformation because if they can't have memes nobody can I guess.
@Nine why are 4channers so bad at making their hoaxes believable? If I took the time to write an article I'd also make a new medium account
@noiob honestly I'm not the one who thought that analysis up. far smarter, better people who have invested more time and effort into trying to untangle this shit have enlightened me to this realisation. namely CaseyExplosion, Shane and the like on hellbird. They're right though.
@Nine doesn't really matter as long as we have and use that knowledge
@noiob very true!
@noiob this also follows for neo-nazi "alt-right" fucks, GG and its related ilk, transphobic organisations and the evangelical right wing.
