We’re living in an age where anytime a person sees someone else doing something they don’t like, that person is at risk of being shamed across social media. The alleged offender’s actual motives never matter, all that matters is that the person who shamed them felt offended.

But assigning motive to someone without knowing their true motive is wrong. Not everything is racism or sexism, and people need to be more cautious before sending online outrage mobs against potentially innocent people.
