@popelizbet This was 2013. Note that the two tweets that got most of the attention were from 2010. 1st major SJ/Gawker dogpile victim AFAIK.
@popelizbet In RL dogpiles tend to burn out. People get bored, move on. Networks supercharge them, & nobody knows how to stop it.

@popelizbet But lots of really bad actors know how to keep them rolling, & profit thereby, and many of them are concentrated in SJ & media. -
@popelizbet Pax isn't particularly sympathetic, for some good reasons & for some bad ones. But he was a test case for something far worse. -
@St_Rev that's possible. it is edge cases that test us as humans in groups, skokie nazis et al. -
@popelizbet As far as Nazis go, I'm with Woody Allen--defend their right to march, then meet them with baseball bats. -
@popelizbet On that scale, Pax gets a "dude, not cool". I like the guy and what's happened to him is despicable. -
@St_Rev we'll have to disagree on what warrants more than "dude, uncool." It does pose a question-just not the one I keep seeing him ask.
