Also, "To those of you who are not people I harmed in my psychotic episode in August 2017… what is it you think I owe you?"

There seems to be this tendency that people who only learned about something 5 minutes ago get outrage and demand retribution. Like it's a reflex.

The mob has vigilante tendencies. Let's go write an email to someone's employer and demand that they fire them. Millions of people band together and demand justice. For what?

I think it’s because the offender is perceived to have harmed the group to which the outraged individual belongs or aspires to belong.

And/or for the likes/retweets/upvotes.

The original victim seems to be pissed on author for making himself victim now and for not going away from his life as he promised.

Some of the angry people have been there whole time and are actually the ones having to deal with it.

Is DeBoer ‘making himself the victim’?

It looks to me as though he is a victim of a bunch of social vigilantes who have nothing to do with the original situation.

The ‘original victim’ would be better off if these vigilantes weren’t involving themselves in the situation.

This is what "original victim" retweeted again, like yesterday.

> who have nothing to do with the original situation.

Speaking about lies, you made that up. It is assumption based on what you want to be true.

What did I make up? Are you connected to the original situation? If so, please explain your connection. If you are an interested party in this, it would be honest for you to explain that now.

He does? I'm not seeing that in any of the posts by Malcolm Harris that have been referenced in this thread.
