I dont think that is fair man. Im talking about it in context of stupid tweets and whatever tik tokkings are.
The problem is that people on this forum and frankly everywhere else on the internet always escalate and exaggerate things into completely different circumstances and situations.
"Dont insult someone and expect them to not insult you back."
"These insults cause genocide!!!"
It not the same thing. These super straight lads are not killing anyone and they arent hurting anything more than feelings maybe and that's kind of a big maybe.
Just rolling your eyes at it, does not mean you are supporting physical abuse, murder, or any sort of oppression. And clapping back with some dumb tweet or tiktok only feeds fuel to the trolls. It is trolling 101, do not feed them!
Well actually, as you can see
here that a lot of people rallying behind this super straight thing are literal fucking nazis, to the point that the super straight flag has the SS from the Schutzstaffel's insignia, so I don't think it's a stretch to suggest they're actually in favour of genocide, since you know that's the thing that nazis love more than anything else in the world, and do keep in mind that's an article correcting the exaggerated rumours of nazi involvement in the movement and it still has like a shit-ton of evidence of nazi involvement.
That being said the whole thing is mostly just stupid, but I think you're severely undermining the capacity of politicizing a meme and turning it into propaganda, which is clearly what's happening here, like there's no ambiguity nazis are literally saying they did exactly that, like it's them openly admitting it, basically nazis love to hide behind the "Just a joke bruh, you're being sensitive" while simultaneously using that joke to normalize harmful idea, again this meme is a very obvious example of this, again read the article there are images of nazis talking about how this is useful to radicalise people to their cause.
And regarding that "Not feeding the trolls", it doesn't exactly work because if you let them spew this bullshit around you're letting them spread their (again by their own admission) propaganda, so at this point it's better to call them out so that people can see what their doing and avoid falling into their trap.
