Not quite. In this case she was, in fact, a "witch". She did the cyberbullying.
It's never made clear, however, if the first guy was actually guilty of what he was accused of. I think that's more of a witch hunt, because we're vilifying people based on a single accusation - without proof or corroboration. Of course there may be more to the story here, it just hasn't been told in this particular article.
- duxup 8y agoDoes a witch hunt have to be "wrong" to be a witch hunt? I always assumed a witch hunt was just it's own thing, it might get someone who is "guilty" or might not, it doesn't care / matter either way.
- eanzenberg 8y agoDoes cruel and unusual punishment mean anything to you? An emoji a teenager sends should not ruin their adult life.
- joekrill 8y agoI never suggested it should. I was simply commenting on calling this a "witch hunt" - I offered no opinion on how fair or just any of this stuff is.
