In reply to the discussion: I was threatened with rape today, NSFW [View all]yuiyoshida
(44,907 posts)I have heard people tell me they received stuff like that on FaceBook, (Which I don't have) and a few told me about Twitter (Which I do have), and I guess the only thing you can do is report it. I know of one girl who reported such an event to the local police department and was told, well if you can't handle it, stay off Social Media.. a totally WTF moment.. and who ever told her that was messed up.
I don't know what kind of on line authority you can report that kind of thing to..the FBI? But I hope someone can track down people who make those kinds of threats. Its truly terrible to receive something like that.. the worst I ever gotten were some racist comments shot at me ..but those you can send on to moderators and hope they will do something about it. (I don't mean DU moderators, I mean the ones at Twitter.)
Please stay safe
