What this fails to mention is the _way_ that Adria handled it
Because in this context, it's irrelevant. Let's say Richards was completely and indisputably in the wrong (eg the guys were just sitting there minding their own business and had not made any response) - would that have justified the rape and death threats?
- danielweber 14y agoThere are many issues at play. Anyone who wants to discuss only a single one of them is going to think that someone else who wants to only discuss a different single one of them is "off-topic," "derailing," or "that's not important."
- jiggy2011 14y agoI think most reasonable people would conclude that these threats were not justified, I didn't see any comments supporting these on HN. If the identities of the people making these threats was known they would likely be facing criminal charges and held in public contempt. Problem is that we don't know their identities because they are anonymous trolls hiding behind tor or proxies so any attempts to identify them as members of a particular group is speculation. So that makes it difficult to condemn these people in better terms than "internet trolls are assholes" which everybody already thinks.
