I was thinking of my most Tumblr(TM) experiences, and tbh, I'm not sure anything will beat the time when I was talking about my undying loathing of the Young Turks (the architects of multiple genocides, not the news people, though I do despise the latter for choosing to honour the former). Naturally, the main response was someone asking if I hated them (the person asking), since they were young and Turkish.

I could see this as either trolling or 100% sincere, but either way, peak Tumblr.

I did not know about the origin of the term, and it is indeed horrifying.

Yeah. :\

My grandmother is Greek and talked vaguely about Bad Things happening, but I was an adult before I knew about the genocides in any kind of detail. They're horrible enough in their own right, but honouring the perpetrators is mind-boggling.
