So the K-pop stans on TikTok are taking over the hashtag for Trump's #MillionMAGAMarch by trolling it, posting pictures of pancakes.

When people check out the hashtag tomorrow looking for fellow MAGA morons, they will only see pancakes. Here is my contribution:

#MillionMAGAMarch He's not really a turtle. Turtles are nice. @senatemajldr is more like two little gelatin-injected foreskins poking out of an ill-fitting suit.

K-pop = Korean pop music (one of my nieces is a big fan and I have been made to listen to it - a lot of it is hip hop/rap), TikTok is a personal video app (under assault by 45 since China owned it) that lets users make and share their own videos with others (a social media thing), and hashtags are words or phrases that are prefixed with a " # " to label the tweet with a relavent subject so when people do a search on Twitter for that word or phrase having a desired hashtag, then all the tweets having the same hashtag will be displayed.

As reported by the New York Times, the scheme stemmed from a 11 June tweet from the Trump campaign promoting free registration online and via cellphones. The scheme exploded on the TikTok app, where young users implored followers to join in.

“Trump has been actively trying to disenfranchise millions of Americans in so many ways, and to me, this was the protest I was able to perform,” Erin Hoffman, an 18-year-old New Yorker, told the Times, adding that she reserved two tickets and persuaded a parent to book two more.

Following Saturday’s abysmal turnout, Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale blamed Black Lives Matter protesters outside the BOK Center for the small crowd, claiming they “even blocked access to the metal detectors, preventing people from entering”....(more)
