Makes you think about the potential unintended consequences of the way people are shamed online and the ills of social media.

Must have been depressed by the thought that all her good work as a lawyer got tarnished by one drunk incident.

I sympathize but it’s a consequence of her own action rather than social media trolling. Should have known how much alcohol she can handle.

This is going to happen more often.
Bullying and blackmail are becoming more common, on social media and the shaming of people, for what is sometimes no more than drunken misbehaviour, will lead to more incidents like this.

Jon Ronson wrote a book about this, ā€˜So you’ve been publicly shamed’ which I thought was quite a good read.

I’d heard of the book already, but got more interested after he was on Buxton’s pod. I’m just so fucking lazy when it comes to reading

Yea I’ve been slacking on reading lately. I do audiobooks a fair bit now.

I have the book but we’re in separate countries so that’s not much use to you :santi:

I heard that there was this wedding in Canada. Kitchener, I think it was. Asian couple. The bride’s ex comes in at the reception, starts distributing pictures of her participating in a sex act. Don’t know how the girl can come back from that…

some guy quit GOP now because of dolan urging others to follow. Muricans, do you think this will catch on?

In general yes but every time Arsenal or the premier league tweet this and you click the person’s account they are are from one of these countries

And I saw plenty of European, Asians and Latin American people running wild on the comments on Instagram so let’s not act like it’s only African and Arabs.
