sure led the charge on starting one at UT with Schiano.
You could see it morph in front of your eyes. His tweets started with "he is a terrible coach" to later "he covered up child rape" then posted a pic of the AD's cell phone #
From Clay, 3 years ago:
Mobs don’t want facts, they want blood. They’re angry, they demand that someone be fired. (A firing is a modern day Internet execution).
The social media mob doesn’t come for context, analysis or justice, they demand a Disneyfication of our universe, a place where everyone is good or evil, where every single act defines our character in all facets from this day forward until the day we die.
You’re either good or you’re evil on the Internet. The fact that no one in America is actually either today doesn’t matter.
Of course social media mobs believe they represent the best in truth, justice, and the American way, but what they really represent is a further dumbing down of our society, a twenty second hot boiled opinion that must be the exact same as everyone else’s.
