White + Black = Gray |
That’s pretty good |
Also, don't believe everything you read on the interwebs, especially if it's rife with inflammatory language. |
+1 PP here. EXACTLY! |
It’s been 2 weeks, what are you talking about |
+1 What I want to know is if any of the young men have been publicly identified by internet sleuths. What do we know about the guy who said the bike was on his account and the narrator of the video? |
"Equity" |
This is a good summary of what actually happened in the video: https://youtu.be/zv5wCPQNkkw None of the guys in the video were publicly identified by internet sleuths. The guy claiming it was his bike (it was not) ultimately came forward on his own. Well, actually, his sister did a TikTok in which she identified as his sister, and then he came forward and did an interview. However, since he is a minor, his name has not been widely released. The woman in the video was identified and then doxed (her address, socials, and other identifying info released online) within a few days of the video coming out. Her husband has also been identified, as has his employer and his socials (they've both deleted all their social media accounts). They have had to move out of their home due to death threats and harassment. A huge part of the controversy is whether this woman did anything that would justify any of this. Was her behavior in the video racist? Should she lose her job. My response to that is a resounding NO but I'll let you decide for yourself. |
Yes, this is what it’s actually about. There is a dark underbelly of social media where “influencers” like Tizzy Ent (Michael McWhorter) and Danesh (Danesh Noshirvan) gain money and get famous by inciting campaigns of doxxing and revenge on anonymous citizens who are filmed in a way that looks like they are being racist or anti-vax etc. Sometimes the person did something wrong but hardly deserves to have their life ruined, and sometimes they dox the wrong person. Tizzy has apparently doxxed children before, and Danesh just got sued in Florida on allegations that he made false complaints to CPS. That’s what this incident is about. Extremely toxic online mobs fomented by people like Tizzy Ent (Michael McWharter) and Danesh Noshirvan. |
Twitter shut down Danesh's account over this incident. Crum posted but took wisely down his post. Tizzy Ent and Monique still have their defamatory posts up, although Monique seems to have gone quiet on anything besides basketball and her bong. I'm hoping the PA's defamation suit will take down these remaining bad actors, making them pay financially, and sending a strong message to anybody else thinking about siccing an online mob on somebody. To me this is all fascinating. And it's also a cautionary tale about what can happen to you for even a seemingly innocuous interaction. |
Tizzy Ent (Michael McWhorter) gives me the *absolute* creeps. I have no doubt that something will catch up with him, eventually. |
There is no video of the interview just a claim it was done. His privacy has been protected. |
Monique posted a written interview on NewsOne. She didn't give his name, which is a good thing. |
Agreed, I don't think any of the kids in the video should be identified by name. It is frustrating to me that Monique Judge understands that of course they deserve to have their privacy protected but so does the PA in the video. Judge is never going to admit she got this one wrong and is just digging harder to try and justify her behavior. Although she didn't dox the PA, she tweeted about it gleefully, and the "article" she wrote comparing the PA to Carolyn Bryant (whose lie got Emmett Till murdered) was widely circulated and intentionally repeats the PA's full name over and over for SEO purposes -- Judge bragged about how the article was the top result for the PA's name on Google. |
Monique loves to use the term yt (whitey), too. You know nothing respectful or thoughtful about race relations is going to come from her. |
