there's a line between trolling and being a genuine misogynist. that line doesn't need to be crossed.

"I was planning on doing a name-and-shame of the idiots who harassed me on Facebook," Stanton said, "using their real accounts. However, it just makes me too sad. If you've messaged me with gross images or the word "RAPE" repeated over and over in the body of the message or whatever, please consider revisiting your Facebook privacy settings. For several of you, I can see where you live and work."

All Facebook trolls use legitimate accounts, of course.

Well, I'm sure Farkers in this thread will be very civil when discussing the shrill harpie biatch.

Sky newsreader Jacinta Tynan has written about the abuse she has received from trolls.

She should write about the abuse she's received from her plastic surgeon.

New Yorker Shelby Knox was told to "die in a fire"

I wonder what her Fark handle is?

"Rape" repeated over and over? Sounds like a shiatty old .jpeg or maybe even a copy-pasta straight off the front page of 4chan. Sounds like she irritated some basement-dwelling /b/tard dweeb, nothing too serious. I'm not sure how to feel about this; on one hand you have someone being virtually attacked in a public place, but on the other you have what amounts to nearly harmless drivel-spouting by a yappy dog internet bottom feeder child. Nothing a few phone calls to some friends who might later ask for a favor* won't resolve, especially if they were in fact so stupid as to actually use their real named accounts. After all, a good beating spanking never hurt anyone.

*offer you can't refuse, et cetera

It's odd, I've been online pretty much continuously since 1991 and I've never really been stalked, harassed, or threatened online. I suspect it's because I don't generally go around pissing people off while simultaneously providing personal info about myself so they can track me down.

FTA: "Comments are now closed"

Gee, I wonder why.

I heard most of those threats and insults(or variations thereof) while playing WoW. I hope she doesn't take up online gaming as that would be reall shocking for her.

In Australia, social commentator Nina Funnell, newsreader Jacinta Tynan and anti-porn campaigner Melinda Tankard Reist have also spoken out recently about the vicious sexual trolling they receive by email, Facebook and Twitter on a daily basis.

There's your problem.
 
2011-11-08 08:54:05 AM
If she would just stay home, cook, clean, do the laundry and take care of her man like a good girl, then she wouldn't have these issues.

If they get stalked and abused, they only have themselves to blame for posting this kind of thing. They're probably lying about the abuse anyway, and only doing it to save face. I bet this one was drunk when she was blogging, and she's dressed like a whore in the picture. She has it coming.

Shrill feminist biatches blogging about so-called "rape culture" piss me off with this made-up psychobabble crap.

The examples in the article read pretty much like any random fark thread.
 
2011-11-08 09:00:06 AM
I think the thing that she does not understand about the trolls is that they will tailor their abuse to any personal information you let slip in a manner calculated to inflict the maximum possible emotional distress. This personalized service is not limited to one's reproductive equipment, but encompasses age, sexuality, ancestry, education, profession, socioeconomic situation, level of attractiveness, personal habits, and spelling/grammar. And god forbid you reveal that you have a preference in game consoles or the products of Microsoft/Apple.

As a law-abiding twenty-something male, I'm probably never going to be raped so I don't take rape threats particularly seriously. I imagine I wouldn't be nearly as tolerant were it something that was likely to happen to me, particularly if I was foolish enough to, say, go out at night, or post opinions on the internet.
 
2011-11-08 09:02:44 AM
Holy f**k, I hate it when Fark greenlights articles like this. I'm all excited to see what the commotion is, so I click the link and all I see is "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH".

This really needs to stop.

RAPE.

0/10 for failure to not be so obvious. Stick to harassing Aussie women, you'll get more bites.

Let's say "Facebook Jerk" is actually using the name, address and work address of someone else he does not like (Nice Guy), and so she ends up wrongly telling the world Nice Guy threatened to rape her online.

Who should rightfully be able to sue who?

Nice Guy should sue her?
She should sue Facebook?
Nice Guy should sue Facebook Jerk?

Welcome to the internet, lady. Better not come around FARK if you have a troll aversion.
 
2011-11-08 09:20:53 AM
I feel I should post an image of a whaaaambulance or something like that but she's sorta hot.

Maybe she could put the monkey down and give the camera some better angles. Then we could decide if she's milf milf milf milf milf.

Really? She has brought this upon herself. If you get online and somone trolls you, says horrible things, posts goaste.jpg or whatnot, do NOT get all butthurt and start a campaign. You WILL NOT WIN. If ANYTHING you are bringing this upon yourself. The internet is lulz for the most part, we don't really want you to die in a fire, we don't care if you raped or bleed or any of that (unless it is caught on video) . we ant you to squirm in your seat and cry big farking tears of sadness because you let WORDS get the better of you.


She is probably 2 times older than the oldest troll.


She should post a vid of her saying 'Ya know what, here's TITS, now I can stay. " I promise she would turn 50% of her trolls into /b/ros.


I want to fark with her just because she is crying cryin crying.

This is already on /b/ too....


I think Yahoo News and Fark make the best fodder to throw in the /b/cannon. Copypasta and now your famous!!!

It's always best to use the Buddy System when posting opinions on the internet, and in particular, posting them late at night when it's dark.
