Everything, even the most innocuous and obvious jokes, that could be used to make dummies distrust “the official narrative” will be abused by bad actors for their propaganda. It starts with “birds aren’t real” and ends with “the election was stolen, you need to kill those who we tell you did it”. That’s why nowadays I can’t laugh at stuff like this anymore. We’re too far into the post-facts spiral which serves nobody but the fascists.
