re: #35 Targetpractice

Decided to read through the article and you imagine my surprise that while they do mention she’s a college dropout and she claims she used to be a liberal, they (like much of the media) make no mention about how she had the NAACP supporting in suing her high school for “racial harassment” and got a five figure settlement.

The details of the racial harassment are at Wikipedia.

In 2007, while a 17-year-old senior in high school, Owens received three racist death threat voice mail messages, totaling two minutes, that were traced to a car in which the 14-year-old son of then-[Stamford, Conn.] Mayor Dannel Malloy was present. Joshua Starr, the city’s superintendent of schools, listened to the voicemail messages and said that they were “horrendous.” Owens’ family sued the Stamford Board of Education in federal court, alleging that the city did not protect her rights, resulting in a $37,500 settlement in January 2008.

She also ran a blog in 2015 while she was a VP for marketing at a private equity firm called “Degree180” which attacked conservatives and mocked Donald Trump.

She then tried to start a Website called socialautopsy.com in 2016, with the goal of tracking down people who made offensive posts on social media, and index them by name. That drew a whole bunch of controversy from all sides of the doxxing debate, with both liberals and conservatives condemning the Website.

The Website was to be funded by Kickstarter; they suspended funding over the proposal to dox people and she never started it.

She was then doxxed herself. Gamergaters started promoting her as a victim of “liberal intolerance” (there was no evidence it was liberals), followed by Milo Yiannopolis and Mike Cernovich promoting her as a victim of liberals. She claims she became a conservative “overnight,” as liberals “are the real racists.”

(More likely, she sees who it is easier to grift from.)
