I coined the term scapegoatse.cx while
trying to say what I think you're trying to say
here. They love the word. Yay me. But no, all
suggestions that it'd be appropriate to lay off
have been met with derision and the new "CCN,
sanitized for your protection" thing. Yeah, I
think it's unnecessary and inappropriate. I wish
it wouldn't drive you off the board, though.

It gets to me when I see how quickly people jump on a
targeted person, and how vulnerable they look when they
do that. Such behavior doesn't EVER fool me into thinking
that they do this because they're confident, themselves.
And that's what surprises me. I guess I expect more people
to be more confident than that, and not to have to stomp on
someone else to feel like somebody, or to get approval from
the crowd. It just seems so odd and unnecessary.
