Actress Leslie Jones was harassed by some internet troll with a vendetta. |
He and his loyal band of bandwidth warriors trashed her and the movie that she was starring in.
Leslie is the star of the Sony comedy Ghostbusters. The movie is out in theaters and it's a success. It's a female version and it's attracted some controversy. Many die hard fans and conservatives are going nuts about the movie. They are trashing the movie online and singling out Leslie and her castmates for allegedly "ruining" the movie.
Many of the trolls have referred Leslie as an "ape" and one big "ugly woman".
Milo Yiannopoulos is dangerous individual on social media. He is a part of the GamerGate group that advocates spamming and trolling of people they deem liberal.
It did blow the spirit of the actress. Leslie who stands at 6 feet tall. Many of these asshats compared her to the gorilla shot and killed at the Cincinnati Zoo.
It almost drove her from social media. The social media website where all this nonsense came from was Twitter.
Twitter takes all these issues seriously. When Twitter was bombarded with complaints about this asshole, they finally ended his account. Yiannopoulos is banned from Twitter for LIFE.
He and Charles Johnson (of GotNews) are notorious internet trolls.
Leslie got the last laugh. She got an opportunity to address this troll and the support from her fans.
