This is a point that cannot be underemphasized. One should always be skeptical when a loud voices start clamoring the way we've seen here. Sometimes you really have to stop and stare for a bit to understand why exactly it might be that suddenly a number of people are, say, accusing a mod of being an SJW. While it might not be reasonable to expect the mob to come to its senses, those with higher level view should be able to see past it.
