Online communities are not real communities. Online discussion is not real discussion. OUR REAL PROBLEM IS TREATING THE INTERNET AS THE REAL WORLD. The loudest, most controversial and most followed wins. It's a virtual space where people are free to express their stupidity at the comfort of their homes, without having the need to read the room, without having the need to think about other people's emotions, with the freedom to choose your own echo chambers. Or then you are seeing people reacting into this media online. Or then you are seeing sensationalist online media appealing to your emotion. Or then you are seeing angry or stupid Tweets made on a whim. You are not seeing people in front of you spewing this bullshit, you are seeing people spewing bullshit behind an online alias 15 years ago on an online forum. This whole thing tells you more about the nature of internet, and how it's really just tearing our humanity apart, than about the real nature of people and their real souls. Even better if you don't comment anything it all. The real lesson we should all learn here is to NEVER comment anything online with your real name. Best option is to retain plausible deniability or say 'no comment'. She knows she can't win, no matter what she says.
