> Mr. Sanchez, who describes himself as Chicano, said he has bristled in the past when another student has addressed him as “G,” short for gangster. He has let it roll off his back, he said, but less thick-skinned students should have a path for redress. Maybe less thick-skinned students should just develop thicker skins. Break the system. Flood it with bogus complaints until the people in charge learn why anonymous accusations are a bad idea.

  You expect 4chan to fight against anonymity?

    I expect 4chan to abuse anonymous reporting systems to troll people.

  Reminds me of pushback against DeBlasio's "snitch line." New York City had to shut down its social-distancing 'snitch-line' after it was flooded by trolls brandishing penis pictures and Hitler memes https://www.insider.com/new-york-city-social-distancing-snitch-line-number-de-blasio-2020-4 https://www.insider.com/new-york-city-social-distancing-snit... Americans can be really awesome from time to time. We don't suffer well, and I'm happy for it.
