On one hand, that sounds insanely and unrealistically stupid. On the other hand, that’s exactly the sort of thing you might expect to see from clueless “influences” and other such ambulatory bipedal cancerous tumors. But before going nuts over how stupid it is, maybe it would make sense to actually try to find where it originates? Turns out it’s not that hard. After about four seconds on Google, the original source is found to be:
Here’s 5 Tik-Tok dances you can do to help Ukraine fight Russia
And what is “Cinch News Network?” From the bottom of their page:
About us
We are a super biased and undependable publication focused on furthering liberal policies in pursuit of a theoretical world where humans don’t act human.
I begin to suspect they just might be a satire site. But to be sure, let’s see what other stories they’re running:
Here’s why Ukraine citizens are good guys with guns, but you’re not
Hidden Federal gun control successfully passes, defeating sexism
Why white people owning dogs is racist
(Note: that last one I actually linked to a couple years ago, not grasping just what was going on…)
Here’s how God might be responsible for racism
White House considers hiring Stephen King to name the next 20 COVID-19 variants
So… yeah.
