Not Again! Leslie Jones Is the Target of Another Racist Internet Attack
Tragic and disgusting.
The demons of the internet launched another racist attack on Leslie Jones, and it's even worse than before.
This time, hackers got into her personal website and leaked extremely private information like her driver's license and passport — and a number of her nude photos.
But that's not even the worst part.
According to the New York Daily News, the hackers showed their racism by uploading a video of Harambe, the gorilla who was shot and killed at a Cincinnati Zoo this summer, at the top of her website.
This vile move comes just weeks after Jones faced vicious, racist attacks by Twitter trolls, many of whom compared the Ghostbusters star to a gorilla. The extreme bullying caused Leslie to leave Twitter for a time, until the hashtag #LoveForLeslie helped combat the negativity and the trolls were ejected for the social media site.
The Twitter attacks pale in comparison to the hacking, though. Jones has since taken down her website, but we're sure this is far from over.
We send our deepest #LoveForLeslie to the comedian and hope her attackers are brought to justice, and shown no mercy.
