Tl;dw there was some beef between some script kiddies (literal children) and a random Japanese dude or something like that. The script kiddies decided to do the normal internet thing and dox the Japanese dude and then created accounts using their username and spammed the fediverse so the Japanese dude (not involved in the spamming at all and the victim in this case) would get tons of hate and threats from the fediverse.
At least that’s what I think this event is referring to. Please correct me if I’m wrong
I think this video from Brodie Robertson might explain it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KCwq9e-H5M
