Eddie wasn't an anarchist, he wasn't really even a punk. Eddie was into Women. But not in a macho jerky kinda way, right, he was a true romantic. He had his ass beat several times for being gay, which, he was not. Imagine: fag bashing without all the benefits.

The account calls Eddie a romantic and describes violence prompted by mistaken assumptions about his sexuality. Its closing slur intensifies the satire of that cruelty; the violence is not endorsed.
