He doesn't need to tell them specifically anything he just needs to retweet the right thing from someone and his followers will jump on them.
Although Leslie also advocates/boasts about the exact same behaviour.
Whole ordeal just highlighted how Twitter's Safety Council needs to teach high profile twitter users more about how trolls/harassers act on the internet. If someone says awful things to you the worst way to act is starting to reply with curse words and your momma jokes to every single one because you're just proving they're getting a rise out of you, they'll retweet your response and their followers will see they can also get a rise out of you.
She pretty much poured gasoline on a match then wondered why she was engulfed in flames. What makes more sense? Teaching people how to deal with these harassers + report and move on, or expect twitter to pick up the pieces and babysit every celebrity who falls for the harassers bait then desperately try to ban users that are popping up out of nowhere and trying to decide if a user is a harasser or a sympathiser, several times Leslie told people sympathetic to her to f--- off (are they harassers in Twitters eyes?).
