Do these SJW nutters ever give over?
Rickrolling is sexist, racist and often transphobic in context.
The rickroll is a kind of postmodern "shared joke" that can be used to dissipate online social anxiety—at least inasfar as everyone "gets" it. But among whom is that implicit context shared, really?
The truth, according to this insightful longread at Medium, is that rickrolling is highly problematic,
especially in its dependence upon the semiotics of cisgendered discourse. [via]
