Also, is there anything more tedious than media navel-gazing over "outrage mobs"? Start paying attention to what's happening outside of your Ivy League NYC-centric circles. Look at how pile-ons operate in other contexts and get some goddamn perspective.

I still get regularly targeted on a subreddit dedicated to online harassment for shit I didn't do, people need to get the fuck over Bari Weiss doing a bad tweet

She did a bad tweet, she got ~ engagement ~ for it and then didn't want to engage back. The Discourse is not being harmed because of people questioning a bad ice skating tweet, the Discourse started getting harmed with, say, the online death threats etc

Personally when someone is getting tweeted at a lot I think twice about also tweeting, even when I think the original tweet is very bad!

In this case I really wish there were still a good public editor at NYT. They would have likely picked up on this last week's cycle as the public's expression of feelings of betrayal after NYT subs spiked post-Trump.

Well, first, Congress would have to know what a reddit is. If that day comes it will be because ~ the discourse ~ has really taken a turn for the worsehttps://twitter.com/alwaysbeenAlex/status/964955798588637184 …

I mean... *looks around* They kind of did elect their president? He’s like an incel’s idea of an alpha male.. role model? God it’s hard to wrap my mind around this.
