Let's all agree to ignore trolls like this. The world would be so much better.

The thing is, then they go unchecked. And they find their way into the Whitehouse.

The thing is, I'm quite sure the majority of upvotes comes from people not realizing this is a fake post to incite hatred.

How in the world is putting this on r/facepalm any way of keeping this shit in check?

It's literally just a post designed to make people mad at each other and splinter any shared identity. There's no group of people who actually believe this, but it's easy to project it onto whoever.

Exactly. This being on r/facepalm is in itself worthy r/facepalm material... Or maybe it would be if this sub wasn't filled with shit like this already.

It's from a twitter account @aliaabeed.. and looking at the account, i think it's just making fun of these things.

Yeah but making fun of stuff like this is pretty much not helpful to anyone at all any more.

Much of /r/insanepeoplefacebook is fake, either for the pointless karma or to call incite rage against the supposed real group being spoofed. I cringe so hard watching people try to construct some kind of personal ideology about opposing these posts. "Blah blah blah women R feminazis something something male genocide." Fuckin' get real people.
