Our society has incentivized all the wrong behavior. He had a bad 2 min interaction with someone and his first thought is to try to make it go viral, track the person down, and get them fired from their job.

You can barely tell what happened from that video, but because the guy has 100k followers and made an accusation, the other side won’t even matter. The girl has already been fired.
This type of mob justice will get abused repeatedly and incentivized all the wrong behavior.

The only way this ends is if it stops getting rewarded and those who feel entitled to harass and ruin someone’s life with a social media mob because of a bad 30 second interaction are the ones that actually face some consequences.
Keep in mind Joseph had all the power in this situation. Even in that clip where he claims she said something bad to him, he's confronting & following a woman half his size trying to walk away. Then he went on social media, where he has 100K followers, & set out to ruin her life.
He wrote a book about it ("The Black Friend: On Being a Better White Person"). He's actively looking to level these accusations. That's what makes it even more shameful that his attempt to stir up a mob was rewarded because he will do it again.

Oh man. Also forgot that the same guy also tried to launch an online mob targeting an Airbnb after he had a bad experience, falsely accusing them of having satanic items in the house.
Definitely a pattern.

This seems to be what this guy does every few months. He might be the biggest Karen in the history of social media.
