Now, if you go up thread on the conversation linked at the top of this thread, you will find someone calling popular accounts 'victims' of the assholes. And I guess that is a valid way of looking at it. Except, short of somehow eliminating them from the human herd, these kinds of assholes are going to be there and are going to seek out the popular to 'victimize' no matter what you do.

Is it 'blaming the victim' when they deliberately walk onto a busy highway? Or is blame fungible?
