It’s not sarcasm, it’s a conditioning technique.
It wasn’t that long ago that if a POTUS shared anti-LGBTQ rhetoric while invoking the Nazis’
upside down pink triangle symbol, or if they called their political opponents vermin and the enemy within, or did a Nazi salute, that would be viewed as terrible and unacceptable and would have no place in our government.
But all of that has become acceptable, because “they don’t really mean it.”
Now if we point this out, that must mean we’re “literally shaking,” should “cry more,” “cope and seethe,” blah blah blah. If Trump started an actual holocaust tomorrow, the country would be full of people saying,
“oh, libs are scared of trains now??”
By cloaking their agenda in trolls, memes, and irony, they’ve gotten you guys to accept all manner of despicable things.
