As Twitchy reported, twisted 4chan hoaxers propagated a sickening set of hashtags encouraging Justin Bieber fans to cut themselves out of grief over him smoking marijuana. Whether or not they initially realized it was a hoax, many people were shocked and saddened that self-harm was being trivialized. Miley Cyrus retweeted this message yesterday:

Today, she doubled down:
I really hope this cutting shit is just a bunch of punk ass haters that have nothing better to do & no one out there harming themselves.

That’s good advice. The despicable 4chan trolls ought to take it, too.
