“Selma” director Ava DuVernay showed support for Leslie Jones on Twitter Saturday morning, telling the comedian that trolls are unconsciously boasting about her greatness on the heels of Jones being a victim of a cyber attack. “Dear @Lesdoggg. Your trolls unwittingly ‘brag about your greatness.’ And no dispute, you are great. Stay up, sis. xo,” DuVernay wrote with a link to an article titled, “Why Haters Hate: Kierkegaard Explains the Psychology of Bullying and Online Trolling in 1847.” On Wednesday, an unidentified hacker commandeered Jones’ Tumblr, posting personal photos from her iCloud account, which included several nude shots as well as pictures of her passport.
