Just gonna say this— you saw a woman on the internet being harassed by a violent hate group, and your first instinct was to mock her with a Holocaust joke. You should seriously think about your choices in this situation.

I wish her all the best.

I will say, and this will come across oddly but it's true, I regret that I quote-tweeted instead of screenshotting, because it was not my intention to cause her distress, even though I did feel there was something silly in the checkmark plea worth noting for a different audience.

Who’s the “different audience” who finds a woman being harassed by a violent hate group funny?

I don't find her being harassed funny, and I wish it to end. It's the incongruity between the described scale of the problem (Nazis) and described scale of solution (a Twitter checkmark) which struck me as silly. But I will re-think about whether this was wrong to find silly.

1/2 It’s a pretty logical solution— she was being impersonated by a hate group, so she wanted her account verified. This is literally what checkmark verification was invented for, Sridhar. Gwen receives rape and death threats regularly from the hate groups she covers.

Are you saying the check mark will stop the harassment or the impersonation? Or are you simply saying the extent of harassment makes it tasteless to mock the request for a check mark?
