If someone posts crap then delete or withdraw yourself
They can heap **** on Aussie Bob and no offense will be taken.
The problem is, they aren't heaping **** on screen names like Aussie Bob. They're posting a photo of someone's face and heaping **** on them publicly while their peers laugh. The target is public but the attacker is anonymous. It means that when they walk out into the real world their abuse still exists. They can't just log off from that. They can't even remove the photos if they suddenly regret posting them, because someone else has copied them and has posted it again. How is that a fair fight?

Reap what you sow. Put yourself out there to what? Impress the commoners or 'pull the chicks'? You deserve to be pulled into line and cop a bit of flack
I agree that some of the self worship out there is just awful. But who are you to decide that it deserves discipline? And where would you draw the line? A bit of flack to you might mean a lot more to some of these people. If this stuff leads to self harm like the rumors suggest it already has, are you going to stand there and tell that human being's family that they deserved it because of the photos they posted of themselves on the internet?

Who cares how people use their social media accounts! If you don't like what you see then take TBM-Legend's advice and withdraw yourself. Spend your time doing something better than trying to destroy people who are clearly insecure to begin with.
