I'm more concerned that we've reached the point that a cartoon depiction of a frog has been given enough power to be declared as actively oppressing people.

Oh certainly. But I could put pictures of Fluttershy up with her saying "GAS THE JEWS! RACE WAR NOW!" and spam them all over the place, doesn't mean that Fluttershy is the problem.

The internet is serious business, look at the amount of commerce that takes place over it. The days it was mostly an academic device are long gone.
