Back in May, I created a phony Twitter profile for Dr. Anthony Fauci (@DrTonyFauci). I made the profile for the sole purpose of including an authentic-looking tweet in a post I wrote titled, ‘Dr. Fauci’s Daily Routine Now That He’s Been Cucked By The George Floyd Protests,’ which by all standards was received quite well.
I planned on deleting the account after I got what I wanted for the post, so I didn’t put much brainpower into the profile optics.
I only followed one person, but I made sure it was another member of the medical community for credibility sake.
I woke up the following morning, mindlessly logged onto Twitter, and found that I had been tagged more than a chubby kid playing manhunt. People from all over the country were either treating me like their last beacon of hope or telling me to social distance myself off a bridge. There was no in between.
Scrolling through the countless comments, I became empowered to channel my inner Dr. Fauci and be the mouthpiece for a man who is too damn old to defend himself against the barbed wire thrown his (my?) way. I was taught to respect my elders, especially when the fate of the world is on the line.
These are just a few of my digital opponents.
