  • Nope, not what we were talking about mate. Op said:

    That’s not outrage being directed at the perpetrator, it’s outrage being directed at an entire demographic of people of which the perpetrator happens to belong.

    You said :

    It’s not in the article, it’s in the comment you were replying to. What am I missing?

    So don’t try to move the goalposts just because you talked shit, I’m sick of this bullshit.

    We were talking about why a, admittedly monstrous, rapist needs to be used to demonize a whole demographic. You pretended like that wasn’t in the article, I proved it was, that is the fucking conversation we’re having here.

    I think people were concerned about that kind of scenario since the invention of the printing press, if not the written word itself. Not trying to dismiss the destructive potential the Internet can and will have in the future, just pointing out, that this kind of fear is not new.
