Jesus Christ!

If this event was the trigger that caused him to do that, somebody should be held responsible for it.

You can't just turn the hate mobs on on the internet and then walk away or try to absolve yourself when there are real world repercussions to it.

 

[diablos991]

Hope the accusations were worth a human life.
internet mobs need to settle down.

 

[Pumpkin Seeds]

I don't know the truth of the events or personally know the people, but this is not how things should be resolved.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

This is so fucked up.

From the tweet above:

I think OP needs to be updated. Perhaps thread title also.

 

[Shodan09]

I cant imagine what it must be like to have the internet hate mob turn on you. Not to diminish the impact of abuse on victims at all. Horrible situation all round.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Just a couple of months after the death of Etika, too. Cancel culture shitheads will say a bunch of hollow condolences and pretend like they are sad it had to end this way before they eagerly partake in the next hate campaign. After all, the cancellation and removal from society of whoever they target is the goal.

+1 to twitter hate mob body count. ,

 

[CRON]

Every single aspect about this situation is disgusting. No matter what opinion you have, or what your own theory is, there's nothing good coming from this in the slightest.

 

[Kadayi]

Absolute insanity. Thoughts to his family.

 

[Komatsu]

This is horrible on so many levels.

Still think Zoe is hot, guys?

Suicide is a weapon... used by abusers forever. Holy smoke.

Mother of son who hanged himself after being accused of rape commits suicide a year later

The mother of a teenager who hanged himself after being subjected to rape allegations has committed suicide in the same way shortly after the anniversary of his death.

Well, they managed to really burn the witch this time. Looking at the response from the usual suspects they're only doubling down on trial by social media. Countless examples of this going so tragically wrong, I guess another thrown on the pile doesn't mean much.

I really wish mob justice was just one of those things everyone could agree is wrong but sadly enough that's just not the case.

 

[Pumpkin Seeds]

Quinn is probably planning her spin on this. If her public behavior/character holds true, then I expect she will align her brand with a suicide help line or some sort of suicide prevention charity. Obviously lending her expertise to the project.

I'm shocked due to their whole "throw their shit games away", "their whole life is trash now". Sure, that shouldn't push anyone one step closer to the edge.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

The worst part about this, is that regardless of whether or not he was guilty, his death will be in vain because nothing is going to change as a result of this. The people responsible for weaponizing Twitter and the hate mob are too stupid and stubborn to actually take a step back and reflect on things.

 

[Rolling_Start]

This guy.

Edit: wonder what his view on 'accountability' is now.

 

[LightofRohan]

I'm so confused, has anyone had sex with Zoe that hasn't been deemed a sex offender yet? How many has it been now?

God motherfucking damn.

 

[Fox Mulder]

The natural conclusion to cancel culture. These people revel in ruining lives and the accused have no way to defend themselves from a social media mob as you instantly lose your job and friends.

 

[Hudo]

Can Quinn face legal consequences for this?

Morally bankrupt.

 

[BigBooper]

Can I suggest that the title be changed to reflect it was suicide? I read the sister's statement, but I feel passed away waters down the meanings and events that actually happened. I understand not changing it too, it just feels wrong to me somehow.

 

[The Bloody-Nine]

'Suicide as a weapon'. Imagine being that much of a scumbag. Poster in question won't be banned, obviously.

For a forum that brags about being the most empathetic forum, they're doing a great job demonstrating the opposite.

Probably too busy swimming in all that poon from white knighting to care.

Well, look how this one's not banned.

Yeah, its especially bad when he was outed/accused, years after the fact, at a time and place that in hindsight does seem to have been contrived for political impact.

As ever the bitter irony is that throughout this whole sorry #metoo fiasco,. is that the only confirmed fatalities appear to be those of men accused. This trial by public shaming is killing people. No ifs, buts, or doubts. Its driving men accused to suicide.

How many more are going to die before this shit ends?

After driving him to suicide, they now piss on the body even before it turned cold by calling him a coward. These people aren't human and this just proves once again that they need to be fought tooth and nail.

Click the link. It's worse than the original line.

He had to edit this to double down and make sure nobody would think he felt bad about what happened with Holowka. He said something awful and was attacked for it not being awful enough.

There was a female porn actor who killed herself because of hate mob after refusing to work with bisexual men.

 

[isual]

i will fight all these shitera idiots. AS, BA, MA, LD, PhD. fivestargeneral

why are they so idiotic and stupid? are shiterea's unable to think rationally and only think with their perceived confirmation bias ?

 

[Holammer]

Now they locked the thread. Mister Antibully's (Metokur) analysis sounds about right.

 

[GHG]

You won't see me for a while guys. Fuck the internet.

Take it easy man, do some real shit and enjoy life.

I was honestly disgusted to see the updated thread title.

At what point do we all collectively say enough is enough as far as the Internet in it's current state goes? It does more harm than good these days by a big margin.

People can use it to literally learn about and educate themselves on anything they want in life but instead they'd rather use it for negative purposes and become hate mongering, attention seeking narcissistic imbeciles. It's really disappointing to witness.

 

[LightofRohan]

As soon as it doesn't work for their agenda they lock it.

Like that Female streamer that abused her cat, they locked that SO FAST. "We don't condone witchhunting and attacking streamers" meanwhile a Dr Disrespect thread was like 500 pages.

They are so hypocritical its so apparent...

And while it technically should allow us to take a more objective/multi-faceted views on issues and at least try to understand other opinions, our society instead decided to double down on one-sided *justice* and view everyone else that doesn't follow our beliefs an evil that must be destroyed.

 

[The Mad Draklor]

The human race was clearly not well-equipped for social media when it first started.

As someone that's recently struggled with thoughts of suicide, this is weighing on me more than it should.

Be okay everyone.
