Yeah, I'm getting the hint that tricking people into self abuse and mocking them is the kind of thing you'd want to teach your kids to do as long as the people deserve it by being lumped into a legitimate target group, and that rationalizing that bit of minor cruelty on social media is super worthwhile.

Yeah, or maybe mocking a group that is a little too gullible and full of itself with what is arguably a broadly harmless prank isn't the same thing as tricking someone vulnerable into drinking bleach to make friends or something.

Honestly, tricking someone into eating something many people eat willingly isn't the moral quagmire you seem to think it is.
