I watched that episode just now after your mention of it. It was quite good.
At least in my version, the victims are complete fiction. The end result would amount to merely punking half of the internet. Fortunately, it also lacked all the terrible things I can't mention due to spoilers. :)
I've this pet theory which surmises that when you try to effect change, the efficiency of the effort is inversely proportional to any resulting negativity. Thus, anything that garners any negativity at all is probably a bad idea.
Realistically, counteracting mob mentality will come down to boring things like rethinking social media architecture to account for human nature.
