Feminist website Jezebel gets deluged with rape porn gifs.

50. Yes--one of the JEZEBEL commenters had a good idea about that.

He or she suggested that, rather than put up an article railing about how impotent they were to solve their problem (and turning to GAWKER who are uninterested in helping), that they should combat the problem by going right at the people who do this kind of dumbass thing.

I think that's an interesting approach--I have rarely seen any articles that delve, in any depth, into the mindset of these trolls. I remember one article that outed some jerk who used to post "upskirt" pictures, and he was exactly--I mean EXACTLY--what one would have pictured--he was like a South Park loser caricature come to life.



However, we don't see enough of those troll outing articles. Maybe that needs to be the NEW "internet sport," one that is praised and championed.

Maybe if the trolls start to realize their keyboard cloaks could be compromised, that their identities coul be unmasked, that they might be humiliated because of their behavior, they'd be less eager to act like assholes.
