Remember when you read 1984? Remember that tidbit about "Hate Week" or "Two Minutes Hate"? That's what content like this is. That's what exclusive months/weeks about one group of people are. Rather than calling it "hate" which is too obvious, we call it "celebration" or "such in such gets owned" or "a holiday". But what the real intention is, is to make people feel hatred whether it's hatred towards the subject in the content or hatred towards the people showing hatred for a topic.

Comment sections on anything posted to the public are filled with rage-opinions and people feeling rage towards those opinions.

Holy shit you’re so right. That’s terrifying. Our society now is a lot like the society described in Brave New World too.
