I'll call out such antisocial behaviour from Trump as for this Nvidia director. You could say it's childish, but these people get off abusing whatever power they can get. It's disconcerting.

Having never met her, I won't pretend to know what she gets off on.

But I have seen Twitter brigading, and I don't have a good suggestion on how to deal with it. She's taking a novel approach of asking friends of followers to intercede. If it works, it could serve as a model for diffusing brigades, which would be nice to have.

(I wouldn't consider anything regarding Trump to be a useful model here. The power difference between any corporate director and a President is too significant).

I'll let my soul mate dispell such limiting thoughts:

What an I supposed to see? I'm not going to read someone's entire Twitter timeline, especially someone I've never heard of.

Not really sure. It's confounding :)
