I see people on Mastodon gleefully sharing this, saying it's the "new Lenna", and mocking the people in this thread who are "upset".
I don't think people are mad because of what it says about Spencer, they are annoyed because of what it says about the maker.
The politically opposite equivalent would be using a video of, say, black-on-white crime as a test case, or maybe a video mocking George Floyd as a drug addict and celebrating his death-by-fentanyl, and I'm pretty sure that would result in a lot more outrage than this.
Russel conjugation: "I am subverting their silly ideas. You are being confrontational. They are insulting our most deeply held values."
