      In a Victimhood Culture, who “deserves” victimhood status will be policed with draconian ruthlessness.https://twitter.com/RobertaLipp/status/1054820538990903301 …

      I have what will be a very unpopular opinion, but what is the moral of the story here? Your terrible actions caught on tape can go viral and ruin your life? Maybe don’t attack women. I’m not saying it isn’t tragic. But this piece seems to portray him as a victim. Of what exactly?

      Wonder how many thousands of people have been driven to suicide by social media 'mob justice'. Future generations will be appalled by how we treated each other in these decentralized lynchings.

          This has always happened to a certain extent. The only reason we're not wallowing in eternal sorrow from thinking about the crimes of our ancestors is that we were given the chance to forget about them. The hard drive and the internet rob us of the privilege of forgetting.

          The privilege of forgetting. Exactly. Nietzsche is excellent on this point.

          The decentralization will hide the true cost.

          That’s assuming we snap out of this nonsense at some point.

          Interestingly, this is precisely how many victims of China's Cultural Revolution died: by suicide after mob denunciations. Jordan Peterson was incisive in associating today's 'Social Justice Warriors' more with Mao's Red Guards than Stalin's NKVD.

          Very true. They´ll also be aware of what a fetus looks like at 20 weeks (it´s a baby), and be much more aghast at the fact that we "terminate" 20,000 of these 20 week+ old babies each year. Aghast to the 3rd power.

          Wishful thinking. I bet we each wind up in personalized bubbles being fed a constant stream of bias confirming scientific discovery and sexual assault allegations.
