This is about Jeff Bezos quote-tweeting a bitter tweet about the British queen’s passing and #WellThisFuckingSucks

The richest man on the planet, and possibly in history, zeroed out a black woman professor because he felt her anger and her words were not acceptable and he felt he was the right person to put her in her place.

Says quite a lot.
What does "zeroed out" mean in this context. I'm not a twitterer.
@Brian Ó Out of all the negative tweets about the queen’s passing that have been published, he picked hers.
Ah. I'm more used to the phrase "singled out" for that idea. Thanks.
Tangentially, I’m glad the #Fediverse has inherent friction to prevent this kind of dogpiling at such a massive and livelihood threatening scale.
