The other odd thing I find odd about these cases is the curious absence of genuine offense. I remember watching the Justine Sacco thing unfold and noticing that nobody really seemed particularly upset - to the contrary, people seemed positively giddy about the whole thing. Very little &quot;how dare she say that?&quot; and quite a lot of &quot;haha she&#x27;s toast, isn&#x27;t this terrific?&quot;.<p>In a way, I guess dogpiling on someone like that is probably a lot easier when you know nothing about them except the thing you&#x27;re reacting to.
