Disinformation Chief: abused online

I don't care what you think about this person. No one deserves this kind of treatment.
That said, I find it ironic that getting "canceled" has come full circle. When it was Kevin Hart and the Alphabet Soup, that made news, but no one on the left seemed to think it was a real issue.
Now that it's some leftist female, it's a "hate crime".

Disinformation board’s ex-leader faced wave of online abuse

WASHINGTON (AP) — Nina Jankowicz, like so many millennials, was excited to share a social media post announcing her new job on Twitter late last month when she was named executive director for a new disinformation board established by the Department of Homeland Security.
But instead of well-wishes, Jankowicz’s tweet set off a torrent of sexist profanities across social media and menacing emails filled with rape or death threats that continue to follow her even after she resigned from that new job on Wednesday morning following the disastrous rollout of the program.
It’s a familiar scenario.
A crush of online harassment, stalking and abuse has driven dozens of women around the globe from powerful positions. The speed and unchecked virulence of the attacks show another way that social media can serve as an accelerant to sowing discord.
“This type of silencing and terrorizing are global, sadly, and unsurprising,” said Danielle Citron, a law professor at the University of Virginia who studies online privacy and hate crimes. “It is a playbook. And it’s downright scary.”

She knew what she was doing and how people would respond. If she didn't, she wasn't smart enough to be qualified for the position.

She deserved all the smoke she got. And I have a feeling her online abuse/stalking is being played up.

A) I always take these “threats” with a grain of salt. Almost every single time, they are nothing more than empty words to get a reaction and there is no actual risk. I realize there are exceptions, but it’s like every other thing (read: Covid) where people take the ultra rare bad case and project it to say all threats are real. Make sure the insurance is paid, get right with God, and move on.
B) Act like a damn adult and maybe you don’t make yourself so much of a target.

So she accepts the position of "Big Sister" in the globalist's new totalitarian dictatorship and can't handle some online trolling.
How sad

Bro she was going to basically be the head of a nazi era monitor. Are you stupid? She deserved everything said to her.

A clearly partisan attempt to censor speech that is inconvenient to a left agenda and control narratives. frick that this bitch got everything she deserves. It is past time to stop playing nice with these people.

But the woke mob loves it when their own mobs go to Supreme Court Justices' homes and threaten the Justice and his/her family.
THAT'S ENCOURAGED -- even publicly by the Rapist in Chief when it's clearly a violation of Federal law.

If you're a straight white man, she'd have you killed tomorrow. So no, I don't feel bad that this little piece of shite got harassed.

Everyone in the public sphere is subject to all kinds of things.
When you happily announce you are going to be the government's chief executive responsible for governing disinformation, you are literally asking for Twitter mobs to do what they did.
Life is tough. Get a helmet.

It was OK to say, and continue to say, things about Trump, though.

Any government official attempting to due what she was doing deserves much worse.

this snowflake was supposed to be the head of the internet secret police. her department collapsed in just a matter of weeks and now she is out of a job. all because people on the internet can't stand her insufferable showtunes and crazy eyes.

Oh please. She’s an adult and it’s online stupid words.
How about the SC justices needing protection from US Marshalls??? That’s a whole lot scarier to me than words in responses on Twitter.
