This is buzzfeed, one of the biggest contributors of this shit culture we now experience.

Just watch how they randomly call some arbitrary twitter account a nazi:

> 14. Then suddenly there are Nazis everywhere.

This outrage culture is horrible, Buzzfeed is a heavy contributor which makes them horrible and I wish people would just stop.

I'm not sure if this is satirical, but the user they called a Nazi has a Hitler pepe avatar and uses the "echo" meme. That's about as straightforward as you can get.

Otherwise, yeah. Buzzfeed often acts as an outrage factory - it gets clicks. Much of our media landscape is moving in that direction now because it's the most profitable form of "news".

I am not satirical. Maybe the troll is a nazi but honestly, no one can for sure know.

The hitler pepe meme is a meme making fun of the fact that many media outlets are happily using the term nazi against everyone they dislike.

It's pretty obvious that the account is a troll account and that they are a big parody of the outrage culture by using the exact same outrage but with a twist.

By even acknowledging any of these outrage trolls they show that they are no better and is in the sandbox with them. This is the level of Buzzfeed, they belong with the trolls throwing sand at each other.
