It's certainly a cautionary tale about mobs turning on those who try to whip them up, yes. To a lesser degree this happens on an almost daily basis on Reddit when people and companies try to manipulate the crowd.
My point is simply that, much like the game developer interviewed towards the end of the video who had participated in online shaming until she experienced it herself, Adria Richards' questionable actions do not make her any less a victim.

You're discussiong this as if it's some abstract ethical hypothetical. In the real world if you try to get ahead at other peoples expense then you should expect retaliation.
