This needs to be covered more. Regardless of what the facts truly are, weaponizing Twitter to attack someone does not make things right. I don’t need to repeat details of what’s already said in the videos posted (there are tons if you search Youtube), but driving someone to commit suicide, then deleting your Twitter account and hiding, seems very similar to someone committing second degree murder and leaving the scene. IMHO of course.

Just today I made a topic about deleting stuff on the internet:

https://saidit.net/s/Internet/comments/xqe/wherever_they_burn_books_in_the_end_will_also/

“Where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people.”

It used to be that information was held in books, in the written form, to get rid of such information you'd have to burn the books.

These days that so much information is held online, consider how easy it is to delete or edit things and how often it happens without notice as if it had always been like that.

Think about it.
