'TIL Don Jr. is a furry': Eldest Trump son mocked after posting Easter meme with armed bunnies

Donald Trump Jr. is being mocked for an Easter meme he posted of people dressed as bunnies and holding guns and wearing grenades. The eldest Trump son used the image on Instagram while wishing people "Happy Easter." Easter is generally the holiest of days, and when Christians celebrate the leader of their church. The faith believes that the death of Christ ensured all sin was eradicated from those who believe. It is often characterized as the greatest act of love, earning Christ the title of the Savior.

Don Jr. took a different approach. Easter coincides with the pagan spring fertility festival, in which people come out of the darkness of winter and celebrate. Rabbits and eggs symbolize that fertility. So, Trump Jr. embraced the pagan tradition with the added twist of death and destruction.

Some online observed that those dressed in the costumes are also emblematic of the furry community, those who enjoy dressing up in cartoonish costumes. Some enjoy it as part of a sexual fetish. The younger Trump has never indicated he enjoys dressing up in costumes.

I didn't know we had to fight heavily armed furries to get Easter eggs. But OKhttps://twitter.com/RonFilipkowski/status/1515780550438629381\u00a0\u2026

There's a reason Don Jr.'s wife left him. I'm sure she loves her kids and wants them to be safe.https://twitter.com/RonFilipkowski/status/1515780550438629381\u00a0\u2026

Isn\u2019t that the point? To take the eggs? But it says \u201cit.\u201d Is it one egg? Did you get one egg and booby trap it with a claymore? I don\u2019t think that\u2019s in the spirit of Easter but my family wouldn\u2019t send a mob to attack sitting members of Congress, so maybe we do it differentlyhttps://twitter.com/patriottakes/status/1515798783359164416\u00a0\u2026
