I just came across this link on Github and I suppose it should not be shocked by this, but the sheer numbers do shock me. It's the number of posts, comments, tweets and accounts that have been used to spread misinformation about Amber Heard. Here is the link:

Am I being unreasonable to be shocked by this? Why on Earth is this woman targeted with so much hate? Why are MRA's scope-locked on her in particular?

SM is the new "public hanging"

There's always weirdoes willing to join in.

But with this type of data, how does one quantify what is negative and what is not.

Does saying "I don't believe her" count as negative or "she's lying"

Or do we need to get to death threats and mocking.

I don't think simply disagreeing with her is negative, it's an opinion, the latter however I fully agree is bullying.

*SM is the new "public hanging"

I absolutely agree with this

It’s shocking how vicious people get but shows us that we are not so far removed from countries where they do still have public corporal punishment and executions
