A man I was rowing with said I should be ‘killed’ so I sent it to his employer

A WOMAN who had a huge row with a man who said she should be “raped and killed” was left feeling “stupid” after reporting him to his employer.

In a post on Mumsnet’s Am I Unreasonable? forum, the woman said things started after she saw a video of the man on TikTok in which he built a Titanic-themed slide for his children.

“I saw a video of a man who built a ‘Titanic’ slide for his children, where he made them slide and then pretended to die,” she said wrote.

“A lot of comments, and in my wine and emotional state I commented that it wasn’t really funny, considering more than 2,000 people died in the Titanic, including children.

“That was it.”

When she checked her phone two hours later, she saw that the man had sent her a “barrage of abuse.”

“Including telling me to shut up and make a face?” she continued.

“And then he hopes that I die in a fatal car accident and that I get raped and murdered and that I made a ‘fatal mistake.’

‘Really mean compared to my comments about the Titanic.

“He had me blocked so I couldn’t respond, not that I would have wanted to turn it on or put in any effort.”

She then went to his page to “take a curious look” and saw that he had photos of him playing with his children, and “videos of him working for his employer, including a badge and their name.”

“In my anger, I sent his employer an email telling them that these types of people say these things and represent their brand and that violence against women, even suggestive, is not an issue,” she explained.

“I have attached a screenshot of some responses.”

But when she woke up the next morning, she felt “a bit stupid and nervous”.

“It was just a TikTok argument and I escalated it. At the same time, why do men get away with talking to you like that?” she concluded. ]

“I had nothing identifying in my email or TikTok related to my name or location.”

But the majority of people who commented on the post were on the woman’s side.

“No, you did the right thing. He’s a disgrace,” one person wrote.

“You did the right thing,” said another.

“When you post videos for public consumption on social media, you invite public comment.

“Your comment was measured and innocuous.

“His responses to your response were insulting, threatening and misogynistic.

“I would also report it to the police.”

“I think you did the right thing,” a third wrote.

“Too many assholes get away with this despicable behavior and it is not acceptable.”

The woman then replied: “It’s my very first little fight!

“I just feel nervous and embarrassed this morning, but I wouldn’t want my employer’s name publicly on my feed if I was that mean!”
