This whole drama is ridiculous, people should know by now that trolls love to find boundaries, step over them, and press buttons, and with juvenile shock racist/sexist humour being able to be get a rise out of a celebrity, and being spread, being quoted by the likes of the bbc and the NYTimes. Anyone wants insight into the thought processes behind the sustained racist tweets, this is a forum link I saw tweeted. We are in an age where Carlin's seven words you won't hear on television is quaint, and old fashioned. When you understand there is an entire culture of using 10 minute email services as a way to make troll accounts on twitter, it starts to make sense. snapzu has never been a "bastion of free speech" the same way as twitter or reddit. twitter, and DNS servers were being used as graffiti to bypass government limits on speech. That's why I ditched reddit, because I never got an answer as to if 09 F9 11 02 9D ... was against their terms of service.
I know people hate brietbart, same way its readers hate vox, themarysue, salon, it is modern media and how it gets out a message. Brietbart had a series of "the left is controlling twitter, and here is how" articles all lined up for when Milo was going to be banned for being Milo. Like this one. Brietbart just needs to prove twitter's hypocrisy when it comes to their enforcement of their rules, and suddenly, they are not spouting some form of crazy right wing conspiracy, but actual modern issues in the digital age.
(and yes, I find this shit fascinating, I blame Metal Gear Solid 2). EDIT: spelling mistake, and an incomplete sentence.
