The anonymity of the internet creates an emotional distance between users which can lead to horrific instances of bullying. You may recall the unsettling story of a 2007 Connecticut hate crime gone viral involving threatening voicemails, a politician’s son, and a young Candace Owens.

Dannel Malloy, quickly making the incident national news. Today, Candace is a popular YouTube personality and political commentator going by the moniker, Red Pill Black.
