‘..The new informer doesn’t file a report at the local KGB office. He participates in a social media collective which among its hobbies plucks some obscure “problematic” remark out of the social stream and turns its speaker into a target for a mob. A lynch hashtag is born and someone loses their job. All of this is done with the self-pitying catastrophic crybullying so typical of social justice warriors who scream that they’re the victims even while they’re gleefully destroying someone else’s life.
….Thought Policing is the goal of Political Correctness. Crowdsourcing it makes it possible for a small number of angry activists and their amateur imitators to terrorize a large population…..’
A great essay.
As usual it has nothing to do with justice. It’s just the same old tribal urge to team up and put hurt on people.
We ought to do likewise.
Yes.

Those people are societal trolls,and just like internet trolls if you feed them they grow in size and number.They love it when they get to disrupt everyone around them like a two year old child at a restaurant table crying and slinging food everywhere.Attention whores is all they are,if you decide to engage them,being nice and trying to reason with them only feeds their insanity.
I refuse to do it,pardon me,but fuck them,I have abruptly walked out of offices and conversations once I realised I was talking to a brainwashed,parroting,low IQ,low information,attention whore.The few that have bothered to ask why I have told that my life is too short to hear their parroted horse shit,in those EXACT words.
Like in any asylum it’s best to keep clear of the raving lunatic sitting in the corner babbling nonsense and shitting themselves.
Rant mode: Off.
And a damn fine rant too!
It’s the only way to deal with these lobotomized turds.
I’m on Twitter and Facebook – and I have no problem with Internet trolls, as I pick and choose my friends well, in addition to blocking those Leftists stupid enough to make a comment on my accounts.
Ditto my blog: All comments are monitored by me and get deleted if its a Leftist troll out for sport.
Quite frankly – I don’t understand the problem with “Internet Trolls” – its real easy to block them.
The man who is vulnerable to these clowns is he who cares about anyone else’s opinion of him. I’ve been trumpeting for decades. I’ve been called “everything but white,” and oftentimes by persons who actually wanted to do me harm…and I’ve never taken any objective damage.
Being vocally anti-PC requires that you not care what anyone else thinks. As it happens, that’s also the most effective armor against the assaults of the SJW cadres.
— He made, in his inexperience, the classic mistake: he tried to explain. Life had not yet taught him how futile that approach is, with men and women alike. He did not know that the only respect-compelling attitude toward any accusation, true or false, is: “Take me or leave me as I am, and be damned!” — Frank Yerby, An Odor Of Sanctity
