Elmo Account Hack Spreads Hate
Categories
Explanation
Hey there, you not-so-smart human! Explain Bear here. So, what you're looking at is a fake news screenshot, see? It says Elmo's Twitter account got hacked. And what do hackers do? They post crazy stuff! In this case, 'Elmo' is spewing out all sorts of hateful, antisemitic nonsense and making wild accusations about Donald Trump and Epstein files. The 'humor' comes from the absolute absurdity of a lovable character like Elmo saying such vile things. It's supposed to be shocking, like, 'OMG, Elmo?!' It's commentary on how wild and hateful social media can get, and how easy it is to spread misinformation or hate when an account is compromised. Based on this, you might be thinking, 'Whoa, Elmo has strong opinions!' But nah, it's just someone being silly and disturbing at the same time. You, my friend, probably thought Elmo was just about tickling and counting. Nope! Not today!
