It's because they're weak and primarily concerned with zero-sum social-status games. Namely, attacking the reputation of others in order to raise the relative value of their own reputation.

It's really ugly. And eventually if they work it hard enough violence will become a viable response to such reputation gouging. Once everyone already thinks you're a monster you might as well act like one.

Even though I don't know how long this has been going on, but we know there are dumb people on Twitter/tumblr/Reddit etc. Both the SJWs and the /pol/tards have been obsessed with each other for years, I can't find this shocking or funny anymore.

And when I see someone who still does I have to wonder if they are new to this, or if they are just obsessed.

Jack Unterweger was a literal serial killer. He murdered a woman, was put into jail but his writing was so good a bunch of pretentious intellectuals got him a pardon. He got out and started murdering people again.

As far as more famous authors, probably de Sade. Silvia Plath psychologically tortured her husband and Norman Mailer psychologically tortured the American people.
