        In late February and early March 2021, users on /pol/ boosted a social media trend called "Super Straight", which they claimed was a new sexuality describing heterosexuals who would never have a relationship or sex with transgender people. The trend began with later-deleted TikTok video by a user who said he had created the term because he was tired of being called transphobic.[31] The Daily Dot described the phenomenon as a "reframing [of] their harassment of transgender people".[32] The trend spread to other platforms as well, including Twitter and TikTok, and 4chan users were eager to "red pill" those in the Generation Z age group, create division among LGBTQ communities, and use the language of LGBTQ rights to troll leftists. The harassment campaign has used Nazi symbols in their symbolism, including the logo of Hitler's Schutzstaffel, which also used the acronym "SS". Colours associated with "Super Straight" are black and orange.[33][32] (Wikipedia)

        Once you realize it's from pol, it's extremely obvious, they used the pornhub colors, the acronym is SS, it's a bit on the nose.

          It looks like that proves it didn't start as a fake 4chan thing. It was a genuine statement by some guy on TikTok.

            okay. So what? It doesn't matter one way or the other. Everything on the internet is started by one person posting.

    It's incredibly pathetic how badly most white people react to being called racist, or in response to the lightest jokes at their expense.

    I saw a tiktok of a stand-up bit where a guy talked about watching a Black basketball player who was huge and tall in high school dunk on white kids for fun and the comments are all "OHHH So iTs oKaY tO bE rAcIsT aGaInSt wHiTe PeOpLe!?!?!?!?!?" Uh......yes.

    Also as if dozens of white comedians haven't been talking about "brothers be doing X, white people do Y" for the last 25 years.

    It's the most simple-minded, surface-level understanding of what racism is.
