      I wrote about the absolute mess that was the Yorkshire Tea "clapback" this week and the insidious business of stanning brands at the expense of a normal personhttps://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/social-media/2020/02/yorkshire-tea-viral-clapback-shows-danger-celebrating-brands-sue-youre-shouting …

      I was really surprised to see so few people acknowledging that a brand, in the same breath as saying "think about the person behind the account", sent a snarky reply to a random woman and then didn't even delete the tweet when it started to literally trendhttps://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/social-media/2020/02/yorkshire-tea-viral-clapback-shows-danger-celebrating-brands-sue-youre-shouting …

      This woman was being called some horrific stuff, every hour, for DAYS. And while yes, you can argue that she shouldn't have been ranting at a brand, that brand will always hold 100x more power than an unknown woman onlinehttps://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/social-media/2020/02/yorkshire-tea-viral-clapback-shows-danger-celebrating-brands-sue-youre-shouting …

      Found this absolutely horrendous. They laughed and joked with other accounts about it, just fueling the whole thing. People who run big accounts need to be aware of the power imbalances and harm they can cause. As they said themselves, it was tough just as a brand account.

      The fact that they did it off the back of a thread talking about how hard it was dealing with abuse made it even worse.

          Same. It reminds me of how much of the bekind hashtag became people attacking each other and being abusive because people weren't being kind enough for their liking. This website brings out the worst in us.

          Also, I feel like there's a big difference between someone shouting at an account I manage, and someone shouting at my personal account. The former isn't nice, but it's not at me personally.
