Considering Tumblr/Twitter has a thing for going GUESS WHAT YOUR FAVORITE KIDS' STORIES/THIS THING YOU GOT SO USED TO IN DAILY LIFE HAS PROBLEMATIC ORIGINS!!, this is...sickeningly ironic. Or hypocritical if they're aware of the memes' origins and still happily use them about their blorbos as if they invented them.
That said, Tumblr/Twitter also has a thing for "let's take this from the bigots and make it ours" so maybe they know and that's what they're trying to do. Though I may be giving them too much credit.
