OP
OP
The phrase that stands out to me is "without due process, mistakes are made."
I agree with this, and it's why I try to adhere to "innocent until proven guilty." Yes, for too long certain scenarios were far too ignored and certain victims had no voice. So what we should have learned is to be better listers. Do not immediately dismiss an accuser, but do not immediately vilify the accused. Sadly, we are well beyond the slippery slope and firmly in the muck.

Nah. Give me a reason why I should potentially waste my time on this random video.
Nah that's just a shitty OP.
Don't just post links, lazy OPs are even against the TOS here.
The comparison to vigilantism is apt. People feel it's necessary for perceived offenders to receive any punishment.
the videos doesn't really have a lot to say for itself and just comes across as a bit wishy washy tbh.
yes, mob mentality is bad when the target is undeserving but that example of the guy who killed the lion? so fucking what. the guy is a piece of shit and if he has to live with the constant reminder that what he did was cruel then so be it. He's not being denied his liberty over it. Maybe the next person who thinks of doing it won't.
edit: also like half the video is just ads at the end. And I think I'm the only person who watched it.

Op this is a bad faith thread. You cannot expect people to watchba video with no context or summary. Hell you haven't even given a reason to watch it.
It's funny, is this thread secretly a social experiment to see how bad mob backlash might be for a bad OP?
That's Youtube these days. Also ads are now part of the video like this one near the end thanks to adblockers and poor ad rates. I never see served ads since I'm on YT premium or whatever it is called.
