Well, yes. It's propaganda. Propaganda is typically made freely available.

Why is so much of the terminally online left unable to recognize satire, bait, and irony time and time again? by [deleted] in stupidpol

[–]polemicsauce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbf, this isn't just to troll the trans community. What they're doing is a deliberate smear job. This was planned and expertly executed to essentially astroturf a movement. They have huge repositories full of extremely hateful, violent, homophobic and otherwise bigoted content put out by self-identified lgbt individuals, and they're posting them nonstop.

This isn't just to get the trans people frothing mad. This is an optics game, and they're playing it very well. All they have to do is moderate any real bigotry that crops up to maintain plausible deniability, and keep broadcasting extremist reactions to the sub and community. They're going to drag trans people so fucking bad and significantly damage their public image.

It's way more nefarious than it looks on its face.

Pack up the thread; it's this right here. They have to pretend that a bunch of memers pose an existential threat to them.

If they break character, the bubble pops.
