This is a huge sign of today’s times. A private event was made public and everyone becomes outraged. So, the backstory is some frat at Syracuse has an event every year where the new members or pledges have to do a skit to roast a member. Apparently the video of these skits got put on the Internet, which triggered a bunch of loud mouth holier than thou snowflakes. Chaos ensues.
If you’re going to do anything that involves sarcasm or satire or any form thereof, probably best not to record it, lest it find its way to the internet mob.
