It seems like I should learn more about him.
What do you believe that makes him a joke?
I sense that most people don’t realize this is a old meme joke and this format is similar to the Successful Black Man or Dating Site Murderer memes, where there is an intended re-direct punchline in them. At first, people most likely think this is going to be some bigotry meme at the expense of Arab people, but it’s not. It’s a re-direct and reference to an old meme called Boom Goes the Dynamite. If you found this to be in bad taste or the like, I can understand. And that is your prerogative. I know my intent, morals and values, and gave this meme a shot.

Ok, seriously. What glam rock band member did this horse get it’s mane from?
I found your shirt really weird and off putting. But by golly am I gonna support you and others like you to have the freedom to wear and share these things online. It’s not my cup of tea you might say, but that shouldn’t lead to others preventing you from liking it and or sharing it. So get down with your “weird” self!

Hahaha. You were missing something. The timeline where that’s what we call a PB&J. All plausible.
That’s the act now and think about it later, kinda thing. Most of us were trained as early as the age of 2 to 16 to not do that. But some forget the lesson or were never taught the lesson to begin with. Sad but true.
Although, there is a deceiving reason to do it. I couldn’t decide on one term that I’ve heard more than the other, so I’ll share them all.
-
Rage farming - deliberately creating outrage content for engagement
-
Performative activism - actions done more for visibility than impact
-
The attention economy - where virality itself has monetary value
Another that fits well is, Outrage profit.
…
This kind of act isn’t as bad if you were gonna throw your toilet away anyway. And if you got enough people to watch it on YT or now TikTok, you could in theory, make enough or more to cover the cost of the item you destroyed. Rage bait is a chronic issue online. And sadly, I spent many years exposing myself to it and not realizing that most of it was an act or the post and/or poster was orchestrating it for their interests.

You’re doing better than at least 1/3 of the world. (This comment is not backed by science. Just by a feeling.)
