http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/12/02/racists-getting-fired-exposes-weaknesses-of-internet-vigilantism-no-matter-how-well-intentioned/A tumblr group has formed the following site:gettingracistsfired.comWhere they attempt to DOX any person they think is a racist, to then send them threats and try to get their jobs to fire them.This has ofcourse led to the obvious results of people faking others as racists to try to get them firedhttp://gettingracistsfired.com/post/103693021987/shugarskull-lilfruta-lilscoops-yinqorsAnd people being attacked and threatened over perceived wrongdoingshttp://i.imgur.com/EVVw84L.pngBonus: they also try to get fired anyone that mocks them:QuoteAbigail Nugent, aka Abby Nugent, Abbysucks, Abe Nuge, Abbs Nugent, The Nuge, etc, from Dover, NH, is the creator of the maliciously ignorant blog Plebcomics. According to her linked in profile, she is currently employed by Recordsforce. Let them know how you feel about their association with someone who dedicates their free time to purposely talking over, triggering, and bullying oppressed and marginalized teenagers on the internet.Abby has since been doxxed, hacked, her blog deleted and had to start a new one, attempts to fire her are still being done to her work. Scratch that, she was forced to resign.http://plebcomics.tumblr.com/
Look, I do not like racism as much as the next guy. They have their right to be, people fought for that right whether they knew it or not.However, doxxing is malicious, I would never condone it, and only selfish people would resort to this.If people weren't selfish, they might have an inkling of a thought that what they want to do might negatively affect more than that person. There's people that might rely on them, people that are entirely dependent of their staying in the workforce, and by doxxing they will hinder them as well as their target. The target will show resentment and will most likely voice their opinion. If their dependents are young or otherwise impressionable, they will then learn to resent those who oppressed them, something that the POC right now are trying to express.Doxxing is perpetuating racism. Instead of bring it to light, they are exploiting their victim's discrimination for their personal vendettas on the pretense of justice. Social Justice which, in my opinion, is and will never truly be a system of justice in this time period.
I could understand this, but the problem is SJW's label damn near anything as racist/sexist/something-phobic.
All this because people can't keep their mouths shut. While I'm all for the abolishment of racism, I don't think there's going to be a method that isn't going to (or even have the potential to) hurt someone else in the process. It doesn't even matter who. Regardless, the fact of the matter is that this blog is ridiculous. The comments in the first link even say that she (the one who runs the blog) herself is a bigot...I mean really... how hard is it to keep your opinions to yourselves? (Speaking generally). On a side note, if the user knows it's negative and is voicing their opinion, they have to retarded to not know that there would at least be lash-back. Lash-back in the form of doxxing... that's going overboard.

The other problem is that there are some SJWs that are simply angry people with the pretense of a cause.
What the hell, I was just looking at Plebcomics 3 or 4 days ago and everything was fine. This sucks, some of those comics were kinda funny.
