A coordinated effort by the media to discredit superstraight just went off all at once. Here's a story from Yahoo Sports.

Over the next two weeks, the super-straight video started to spread on social media, eventually hitting the /pol board of 4chan, known for being a home to far-right trolls, and growing from there. The board members discussed creating and sharing memes about being super straight to "drive a wedge" within LGBTQ communities and "use the left's tactics against themselves, call them bigots for not accepting super straights," according to several posts and deleted threads shared on Twitter. The posts also directly linked the abbreviation for super straight to the Nazi SS.

That's the story they're pushing, and that's the story normies are going to hear. They're stomping this one in the bud. A month from now nobody will remember what superstraight meant. They learned well the lessons of 2016 about letting the people speak amongst themselves without supervision.

Really is frightening how much control they've got over the narrative.

Literally 1984.
