A troubling turn followed the viral post joking about incest when a lady replied, “I’m the cousin”, with a laughing emoji. That comment, whether meant as sarcasm or clout-chasing, further normalizes a dangerous narrative.
Laughing along does not make the implication harmless. It reinforces the idea that sexual abuse within families is something to joke about or casually accept. Even when framed as “play,” such comments blur boundaries, dismiss consent, and undermine the seriousness of incest and assault. Social media reactions like this contribute to a culture where abuse is trivialized for attention. This is not humor—it is harmful normalization, and it deserves firm condemnation, not laughter.
