1Homophobic Hashtag Makes Waves on Twitter in FranceTenifototra Fankahalàna Manonjanonja Ao Amin'ny Twitter
2[All links forward to French posts unless otherwise stated.]Nanonjanonja tao amin'ny Twitter nandritra ny andron'ny Sabotsy 22 Desambra ny tenifototra #SiMonFilsEstGay.
3The hashtag #SiMonFilsEstGay (translation: #IfMySonWereGay) made waves on Twitter on December 22, 2012, in the French twittersphere. The hashtag is basically a homophobic incitement to violence accompanied by some poor taste “humorous” tweets.Fandrisihana ny olona hankahala ireo olona mitovy nefa mifanambady, mody ampiarahana amin'ny hanihany diso toerana izay ny tena fototra dia ny hanomezana izay heverina ho sazy sahaza ny zanaka lahy raha toa izy ka mpitia lehilahy toa azy.
4The alleged jokes consisted of telling other Twitter users the punishment you would give your son if he turned out to be gay.
5Some posts expressed a disturbing penchant for violence:Tena faran'izay mahery setra ny fanehoan-kevitra sasany :
6@Jow_Breezy_Pgn: #SiMonFilsEstGay I would have him sodomised by a horse with rock salt!@Jow_Breezy_Pgn: #SiMonFilsEstGay asaiko pehan'ny soavaly lery dia sesehana sira be!!
7@Trapsneymo: #SiMonFilsEstGay I would either slaughter him or throw him in the Seine or abandon him in a train station somewhere far away.@Trapsneymo: #SiMonFilsEstGay na tapahako ny tendany, na lery atsipiko ao amin'ny reniranon'ny Seine, na ariako any aminà fiantsonan'ny fiarandalamby faran'izay lavitra tena lavitra be any lery
8Others, like @Kenny_koms, tweeted the following:Ary nibitsika i @Kenny_koms hoe:

10Evidently, the debate on gay marriage that currently divides France has also been mentioned often.Mazava loatra, voaresaka matetika ny adihevitra mikasika ny fanambadian'ireo olona mitovy, izay mampizarazara hevitra an'i Frantsa.
11@Cardinaurelien, a UMP party militant, states:@Cardinaurelien mpikatroka iray ao amin'ny UMP nilaza hoe :
12@Cardinalaurelien: #simonfilsestgay I hope he will not be able to get married!“@Cardinalaurelien: #simonfilsestgay antenaiko ny tsy hahafahan'i lery manam-bady!

14By late afternoon, the homophobic hashtag was at the top of the trending topics in France.Tamin'ny faran'ny tolakandro, napetrak'ilay onjam-pankahalàna ho eny amin'ny laharana voalohan'ireo lohahevitra resahana betsaka ilay tenifototra.
15Opposing reactions quickly arose, with many Twitter users condemning the homophobic posts:Tsy ela ihany koa dia nipoitra ireo fanehoan-kevitra manohitra, miaraka aminà bitsika marobe manameloka ireo fomba fiteny mankahala ny olona mitovy taovam-pananahana nefa mifanambady :

19@ErwanSands: #SiMonFilsEstGay I would be as happy as if he were straight!”@ErwanSands: #SiMonFilsEstGay Tena faran'izay tretrika aho sahala amin'ny hoe manambady vehivavy ihany lery !

22Many have tried to alert Twitter to have the hashtag censored:Ary maro ireo nanandrana nanaitra ny Twitter mba hibahana ilay tenifototra:
23@MOMIETTKM: @twitter can you censor this hateful racist homophobic hashtag #SiMonFilsEstGay please?” @MOMIETTKM: @twitter azo atao ve ny mibahana io tenifototra manavakavaka sy feno fankahalàna ny tsy mitovy amin'ny tena io azfd #SiMonFilsEstGay .
24Freedom of speech has limits!Mba misy fetrany ihany ny fahalalahana maneho hevitra !”
25@thomas_gardize, a philosophy student, has tweeted divergent views in his posts to test reactions.@thomas_gardize, mpianatra filaozofia aza, dia nanandrana mihitsy namoaka sata maromaro mifanohitra, mba hitsapàna ny fahatsapan'ny olona.
26He first stated:Nambarany aloha ny hoe :
27@thomas_gardize: #SiMonFilsEstGay a source of conflict.@thomas_gardize: #SiMonFilsEstGay TT loharanom-pifandirana.
28I will tweet arguing for both trends to check the reactions from opposing camps.Handefa bitsika amin'ny zotra roa aho raha izany mba hahitako ireo fanehoan-kevitra mifanohitra.
29He then tweeted:narahany hoe :
30@thomas_gardize: #SiMonFilsEstGay I will burn him on a pyre.@thomas_gardize #SiMonFilsEstGay hodorako eo ambony kitay.
31He followed this with:Ary avy eo :
32@thomas_gardize: #SiMonFilsEstGay I will be proud of him.@thomas_gardize: #SiMonFilsEstGay Ho reharehako izy.
33The phenomenon is reminiscent of a recent wave of anti-Semitism on the same social network regarding the hashtag #UnBonJuif (translation: #AGoodJew) in October, 2012, which also gave rise to aggressive propositions.Mampahatsiahy ilay onjam-pankahalana jiosy teo amin'io tambajotra sosialy io ilay zava-nitranga, ny tenifototra #UnBonJuif tamin'ny Oktobra 2012 no resaka tamin'izany, izay niteraka ihany koa teny mahery .
34Plenty of users made remarks similar to @epelboin‘s analogy:Betsaka ireo mpampiasa no nijery izay ifandraisan'ireo, toa an'i @epelboin izay manamarika hoe :
35@epelboin: Is #SiMonFilsEstGay the new #UnBonJuif?“@epelboin: #SiMonFilsEstGay no #UnBonJuif amin'ny endrika vaovao?
36France is pathetic :(Frantsa mahonena :(“
37Finally, we need to remember that in France homophobic statements are subject to a fine and even a prison sentence.Farany, aoka hampahatsiahivintsika fa ao Frantsa, voasazy lamandy sy famonjàna ny fanaovana teny miaro fankahalàna ny tsy mitovy amin'ny tena.
38There is also the issue of inciting violence.Ary misy resaka fanentanana ny olona ho amin'ny herisetra ihany koa ilay izy.
39This is probably the reason why, at the end of the day, a lot of the tweets that appeared have been deleted by the authors.Izany angamba no nahatonga ny hoe tamin'ny fiafaran'iny andro iny, marobe ireo bitsika mifandraika tamin'izy ity no toa nofafan'ny tompony.
