Yup. Just read a post on /r/relationships how the girlfriend found out her boyfriend is a racist after 2 years of dating because she saw him in the pictures of this protest. She had no idea. They're probably mostly closeted racists, and telling their moms would go a long way. You can't go to the rally, because you're grounded mister!

It's working! I've seen that at least one neo-Nazi-fuckwad lost his job, and another got pretty well scolded on national television. Social media and the ubiquity of recording devices a la smartphones is allowing us to police ourselves as a society. I have some potential concerns about that, but it seems to be overwhelmingly a net positive thing for the time being.
