    That’s ridiculous, quoting harassment is in no way itself harassment. That would undo just about every awareness campaign ever.

      Depends on the reason for the quote. Awareness campaigns quote them as examples of what not to do. There is a clear intention to tell the audience “Watch out for this, avoid it, this is wrong.”

      The punchline in this example is an encouragement to harass people because it’s funny.
