With this lie escalating to violent threats against the Haitian community, we perhaps need to put a pause on joking about this insidious hoax. They are trying to start a race war, and memes likely aren’t helping.

Right, and ridicule is an effective way to shut down fascists. Its why calling them weird is so effective.
In saying that, mocking them does give fuel to the fire. Its a necessary evil.
Firstly they don’t hear your ridicule, but if they do they’ve been trained to believe that you’re punching down on them
They do, which is why they push back against being called weird.
Also, its about ridicule of the leaders not the followers. The followers then abandon them rather than double down as they dont want to be weird by association.
