Are these dangerous times?

Media is driven by hype and clicks.
Hype is spread worldwide in 280 characters or less.
Nuance can't be covered in 280 characters.
Mob mentality is growing (IMO), only now, feeding the mob, also earns the $$.

Nah, there’s nothing in that report that will be big enough. With that being said, if there’s significantly more who knows

What report? I was speaking in general terms.

Ten people with smart phones could ruin somebody on social media if they had a plan. It’s pretty scary.

Much of the Arab Spring was fueled by Twitter. No question it can effect change and eventually topple regimes.

Whoops.

Sounds like you’d enjoy the Twitter and tear gas book.

Buy Gold & Guns.

So hubby and I wanted to go out to a bar to watch the game (baby free this weekend). We went to 2 different bars that were packed. The 3rd one we went to and could actually sit down was Tilted Kilt. He was saying the way things are today, that now he felt awkward and guilty for checking out the women there. Which is the point of going to Tilted Kilt (or places like Hooters). And it wasn’t very busy. So will these places go out of business because of this movement?

And then I imagine strip clubs will be thriving because of guys wanting an outlet to ogle women.

Watching Izzo get grilled after the Maryland game, and the interviewer and media and twitter back-splash (yeah, splash).  These are dangerous times.

There’s danger in every time saw green. I don’t think this time is exceptionally worse. I just think it’s different.

I agree with what you say. Mob mentality is truly a problem.

I'm hesitant about complimenting the women at work on their hair or anything else. It's getting pretty crazy.
