I've been mulling over the whole heartbreak Henry thing. If she ever tried to defend herself (I doubt she would), I would imagine the defense would be along the lines of "but I wouldn't say it to his face and I never intended for it to provoke embarrassment in him". Personally I think she would say it to his face. But regardless, it doesn't matter what her intent was - and this goes for anything she posts really. It's the impact it has. Impact > intent. You could have the best will in the world, but if what you're posting has many people genuinely concerned about your actions, it says more about the actions than it does those people. You cant blame people for being concerned, when the content being posted gives them reason to.
I know self reflection is hard. It isnt easy thinking you've fucked up. But someone being uncomfortable at unpacking their crappy actions is better than causing harm because you refuse to think "what am I actually doing here"
I am under no illusion - this wont make her stop and think. Just thinking out loud for people who may be reading here and not posting, whether they're trying to make up their minds or maybe they're in a similar position to R. I have always approached social media with the thought "would you be happy with what you posted as a headline, or defending it in court" if I cant answer yes to that, even on very private socials, i don't post. I'm not trying to be high and mighty here, but especially with everything with MOD, it has truth to it...
