Did you ever think you would live long enough to see Fark Board type guys be condemned , hounded and blackmailed by a news network? Wtf is happening with The Left? They have lost the capacity for critical thinking. It's a fricking gif . A gif. These people are in the Khmer Rouge stage of Leftism. If they had the power they seek, there would be a bloodbath.

Vigilante justice may not be enough. They honestly think they're beyond punsihment for anything they do at this point. Threatening private citizens is changing the rules a bit. I'm sure this will back fire.

Odds are 50/50 CNN made this whole thing about finding the guy up. They are fake news after all.

So? There's lots of POSes in the world and lots of them shitpost on the Internet. If you think a major cable network doxxing them is the appropriate response to criticism/parody of the network, you're round the bend.

Even so, CNN massively fricked up. They better figure out a way to change the narrative quickly.

You can't go after a private citizen like that over a meme. Think about that. And watch people jump from the CNN ship.

They are getting absolutely destroyed on Twitter.

I just dug through my post history. The Ivanka fake tits post is on page 27 of my post history. And this alleged Mexican joke is no where to be seen around there.

Did you just lie about looking at one page of my history AND make up the Mexican joke thing?

If so that's really sad

The author of the article is saying on twitter that the line in question is being misinterpreted.

So we're not misinterpreting the rest of the story where they basically phoned up an Internet poster and threatened to out him for posting a farked image?

Sounds like you're worried about your post history. Imagine whats in there that you have forgotten about. Imagine how it would look out of context if your employer or close associates saw it. Now imagine what would happen if a global network like CNN started digging through it. You've already dug through 27 pages looking for a Mexican joke.

It's called the hypocrisy of the left. They're all about taking down anyone who disagrees with them by any means necessary...until they realize they can be held to the same standards. It's absolutely insane.

All the CNN folks are dead silent about this on twitter. They don't want it anywhere near their name. This guy is going to be on his own.

Holy shite. I just saw that the guy they blackmailed might be 15 years old. They better pray to Allah that isn't right.

Man, I really don't care about your post history to make up stuff. Yeah, the 1st 2 things were legit and I made up the 3rd. I told you what board you posted it on. Do with it what you must

I'm not worried - I'm baffled

I'm still wondering either how she so misinterpreted something as to be a Mexican joke or simply got so frustrated that she started lying about my post history

And all of you seem confused as to what happened - CNN never threatened anyone. They emailed the dude about if he wanted to talk. He didn't respond to them but freaked out. Apologized online, deleted stuff then contacted CNN back and begged not to use his name bc of his racist posts.

All CNN did was email the guy

I'm seeing that on Twitter right now. Don't know where it's coming from, but it will look even worse for CNN if it's true.
