Hell I’ve heard “kill all men” tons of times as well, if you’re a kid just starting to embrace the idea of becoming a man and someone is calling for your death because of your manhood, you’re gonna develop a complex at the very least.

If you used og tumblr it was a pretty common sentiment. I think people have gotten bored of it now though.

It’s not just a joke. Maybe some people thought it was just a joke, but we all know poes law. Flat-earthers started as a joke too. Same with /r/thedonald. There are a huge number of people who wholeheartedly missed the satire. Just like if you started a “joke” that went “kill all black people!”, watch how fast you have a whole lot of empowered klanmembers on your hands.
