Am I in the wrong? I think people are straight psychotic.
So, [reddit.com/r/InstaCelebsGossip/comments/1iu63vt/comment/mdycwy3/?context=3](http://reddit.com/r/InstaCelebsGossip/comments/1iu63vt/comment/mdycwy3/?context=3) This post content is about a man making a cliché tasteless joke on Instagram, and whatnot. >A man made a **cliché, tasteless joke** under a woman’s post teaching Japanese—he asked, *"What do we call 'You're Flat' in Japanese?"* The response? Redditors **leaked his identity, harassed him, and even contacted his university.** But the issues is that these people are straight up doxxing him and trying to ruin his life by contacting public authorities. The joke was immature and unnecessary, but the response, doxxing, harassment, and contacting his university, is wildly disproportionate. Criticism is fair, but ruining someone's life over a bad joke is not justice; it’s mob vengeance. Cultural context matters, such jokes are common in Japanese media, which doesn’t justify them but does affect how offensive they are perceived to be. If people found it inappropriate, they could criticize, warn, or block him instead of escalating it to public execution. Claiming "actions have consequences" doesn’t justify overblown retaliation. Two wrongs don’t make a right, if you oppose body shaming, why fight it with harassment and doxxing? **You know, how many "small dick" jokes, "short king" jokes, I have heard over the internet? why people are not trying ruin others life because of this body shaming?** **Mob justice always escalates.** If "ruining someone’s life" is an acceptable response to "body shaming," what happens when someone says something worse? >"If warnings and criticism worked, we wouldn’t even have a sub like this in the first place." By this logic, **"warnings and criticism don’t work, so let’s just destroy people."** >**"If your own actions ruin your life, then you might want to consider changing the way you speak and behave."** If you push someone off a cliff and say, **"Well, they should’ve learned how to fly,"** that’s not justice. That’s **malicious cruelty.** >"If you have to shame someone as a 'joke,' wait until we treat you like YOU’RE funny, you’ll stop laughing then." **"Fighting bullying with more bullying"**—how noble.3
