For real? Normally it is toxic and wrong to ridicule people for their physical stuff. Almost always in fact.
But in this case, petty insults are the only thing that gets to him. So if it angers and insults the guy who keeps describing many many Americans as subhuman vermin, i say it go for it.
well, kind of. I guess there are better ways to try and embarrass bullies than dick jokes in particular.
But it also doesn’t matter if they see it or not. Thats not why we should mock these people. Its important for people generally to be able to laugh at these assholes who are trying to intimidate the whole country.
Maybe we should find less toxic ways to do so, but name calling and jokes about things that play on their insecurities are probably more effective than a lot of other things to weaken their “strongman” image
If you’re tagged in the post doesn’t it act like a message to that user? I don’t use Twitter but that’s generally how tagging works everywhere else so…
I have friends with similarly-low follower accounts that have been engaged with by Elon Musk on Twitter.
You fail to grasp the pettiness and narcissism of this particular brand of celebrity. They will go to stupid lengths to crush an ant that looks at them funny, never grasping what a complete waste of time and energy they are engaging in.
OK, so let’s say Trump sees this. How do you think it will effect him? Do you think he’ll be like “Oh shit, someone made fun of my penis, better stop being a Nazi.” It’s pointless and does nothing to even make him feel bad. You think Trump cares what anyone besides himself thinks? All you have accomplished is perpetuating toxic masculinity as a valid form of criticism.
Riiight, let me just go throw a small dick joke at, say, Ellen Degeneres, or Oprah, or even Ru Paul(iirc, theirs, if they still have it, was rumored to be large) … None of them would care. They would probably laugh at the notion of me getting worked up about it.
Toxic masculinity is bad when targetted at non-men, or non-masc-conforming men. Saying throwing a small-dick joke at Donald-Fucking-Trump is equivalent to calling Ellen small-chested, Oprah fat, or Ru Paul masculine, is bat-shit apologism, and I’m done responding to you on this bullshit.

For real. It does not bother him because Trump will never see this. All it does is reinforce shitty toxic bullshit.

Sure, and there are plenty things to make fun of him for that don’t hurt other people. For example being a fucking creep or being a constant loser.
Just have someone repost it on Twitter or Truth Social.
Think again, butthead.
Oh you sure got him. I bet he’ll see it with your 11 followers. Be at the top of his feed in no time.

That’s 11 more twitter followers than a lemmy post has so I’d say my chances are good.
