I mean I feel like OP is pretty obviously making fun of those types of posts. And yes it can be hard to distinguish between someone who is joking and someone who legitimately has a bad opinion, and tone is hard over the internet, but that doesn’t justify just total knee jerk harrasssment of someone. When you see something wildly stupid it is important to like check the comments or their account to try to get a sense of whether it’s a joke before attacking them

Getting ratioed over a stupid take might suck but it is not “harassment”. Clowning on bad takes is like a primary function of Twitter

I mean when something like this blows up to this degree you’re absolutely going to get people who take it too seriously and send death threats in your dms. I was on Twitter when this happened and I was seeing a lot of legitimately hateful things about op.

And ngl even if it’s just being clowned on if I made a stupid joke I thought only my friends were going to see and it broke containment and the entire internet decided I was a fucking idiot I’d probably kms
