This wasn't really my experience. "Jokes" didn't lead people to becoming racist or white supremacist. What it did do though is make people who were actually white supremacist come in and try to spread their ideologies and win people over to their side, so they could convince a fraction, probably the minority of posters, to actually believing it, and eventually their numbers grew.
The idea that people turned into white supremacists because they made a few jokes is kind of a slipery slope argument.
- eej2ya1K 7y agoI agree, I was responding to chvid's specific questions about how you go from jokes to becoming a true believer. I don't think that's something that happens to every joker, troll or shitposter - not even the majority.
- noobermin 7y agoSorry, I should have read your comment more carefully. I do agree with you here.
