You've probably heard about federal and state governments in the US setting up forms so that bigots can snitch on their immigrant and queer neighbours.
You've probably also heard about people spamming those snitch forms with so much nonsense that they become effectively unfit for purpose.
...but have you heard of citizens setting up fake forms to waste bigots' time?
Ben Palmer (the comedian) did exactly that:
