In the immediate aftermath of the Kunal Kamra-Arnab Goswami episode, which has not only further deepened the rift between the Left and Right, but has also led to the emergence of tertiary factions between ethicists and moralists, numerous parody accounts sprung up on Twitter in favour of the Mumbai-based stand-up comedian. These parody accounts showed their support in their own style — by tickling the reader's funny bone.
On January 29, after IndiGo and three other airlines banned Kamra over him heckling Arnab Goswami, editor-in-chief of Republic TV, Twitter handle @MrSledgeHammer retweeted Kamra's video saying, "In light upon recent incident happened on Indigo flight we wish to inform that our union has taken unanimous decision of suspending Mr. @kunalkamra88 from riding in Tri Cycles for a period of six months. We would also demand him to give us back his childhood pic with Tricycle." The tweet garnered over 8,000 likes and 1,400 retweets.
