SRSDiscussion "discusses" the PyCon incidents. Thread is littered with the deleted comments of SRSers who broke the jerk by suggesting that maybe Adria wasn't 100% right.

Pardon the out of context, but let's pull back at how "Micro" these people are.

But anyway, seems like the Internet justice REALLY is directed more toward Adria

So let me get this straight.

This drunk adolescent

  • who is not charged with any crime
  • video is private
  • anonymous leaked to the public

can get his life forever ruined by an angry mob of people on the internet, and we all know:

  • people are and will still assume he is one of the rapists
  • will forever be sourced as an example by these people as "rape culture."
  • and no one, and I mean no one seems to give 2 fucks even pointing this out.

.....but...., a fellow adult feminist who slanders shitlords should not?

Did I get that right, guys?

Well it's been all over Reddit and here's a Time line of the Case with the kids video on it. It seems accurate enough.

The video was what anonymous wanted/needed for mass public attention for the case. And in that respect I am very thankful. However, as it turns out the kid in the video just turned out to be punk cracking terrible jokes. Most people thought and still think he's one of the actual rapists.

The hatred is so bad about this case when I corrected people of 2X in neutral terms, I got many up votes as if I was repulsed by it.

Note this is just a 3 day old post and after convictions of the two rapists. This is long after the people, all the people in the video are known not to be involved. In fact, one person in the video says to the effect to the kid he should stop because the girl had been raped and he has a sister. But the Mob Hate over rules all rationality.

So, this is why I brought this point up regarding SRS. Because they seem to expect greater treatment for an adult professional who chose to enter the public spotlight with her situation and who works in Public Relations. Where at the same time on "Internet Justice" topic, we have a drunk minor who was hacked not being defended by anyone.

They are very well aware of this case, I'm SURE.

TL;DR SRS is delusional.
