http://metro.co.uk/2015/12/07/anonymous-declares-december-11-as-isis-trolling-day-5549021/As part of its war on Daesh (aka Isis), Anonymous has announced a trolling day.
On December 11, as part of Operation Isis, the activist group is asking people to mock Daesh with memes and pictures of members of the terror group who have been killed. They want people taking part to use the hashtags #Daesh and #Daeshbags and post images of goats to Isis members with captions talking about their wives.
Anonymous said: You may be wondering why we are trolling Isis and planning all these demonstrations against Isis. But to understand that you must first see how Isis works.
They thrive off of fear they hope that by their actions they can silence all of us and get us to just lay low and hide in fear. But what many forget and even they do is that there are many more people in the world against them than for them.
And that is the goal of this mass uprising, on December 11th we will show them that we are not afraid,we will not just hide in our fear, we are the majority and with our strength in numbers we can make a real difference. We will mock them for the idiots they are.
I love this approach. Instead of fear, they get mockery.

I whole-heartedly approve of Anonymous.
They are correct. The best weapon against such insanity is ridicule.
Laugh at them and we all win.
