tarot birdWhen we create a culture where it's okay to gang up on and harass people, the ones who suffer most are never the ones who "deserve it", because those people inevitably have backup/clout/resources. The people who suffer most will be vulnerable and marginalized people who are wrongly accused of misbehavior and don't have a fanbase or clique to back them up. Mob behavior is *easy to exploit*, and we should be very careful about normalizing it.
