There's this pattern which II first noticed in regards to sex workers where a group of people is affected by literally the exact same issues and injustices as everyone else but something about their nature makes the injustice so obvious that it punches right through the mental shield that protects everyone from seeing the inhumanity of society. And rather than accept that inhumanity, people respond to that by lashing out at those people for making them feel bad about their world.

This is really the upsetting part. That the idea of just regulating tech companies and not just letting them grind everyone's brain into a thin paste for ad revenue has become so unimaginable that it's preferable to just ruin a whole bunch of people's lives so you don't have to see it also happening to people who you can't bring yourself to victim blame.
