There's nothing wrong with being angry that something you love is being ruined, but it needs to be channeled in a constructive way. Tons of people have produced videos or written articles explaining all the problems with the movie, and that's completely legit.

But harassing someone who had basically no hand in causing the problem? Completely stupid.

This is the problem with the internet. It is not harassment she was getting. If 10,000 people each decide to send you a message telling you what a prick you are, you are not being harassed. It seems like it from your end but from the people sending the message they have only sent one message. Any ideas on how the square that circle?

Don't use your real life identity online? Dropping pseudonymity from the internet was a mistake.

That's not going to work if you are already in the public eye and even if you are anon have a tirade of ppl sending you messages can make your accounts nearly use able.

Perhaps develop a thicker skin?

Basically.

Not allow the opinions of random people on the internet to influence your state of mind/opinions on things?

If you're putting yourself out in public with millions and millions of people looking at you, then you need to be able to deal with the fact that at least some of those millions are assholes.

If you can't deal with that, don't go online with your real identity.

Given the population of the world and internet connectivity, you probably have to be willing to put up with at least a million people hating your guts

Especially if you're a public figure or celebrity.

The whole point of pseudonymity is protection. Protecting your real life from online assholes.

Now that we've abandoned that paradigm in favor of using your actual identity online, you can either learn to deal with assholes yourself, or get censorious.

there is an actual problem here that isint as simple as "if you cant stand the heat stay out of the kitchen"

though this problem might be older than the internet

I understand all that and I agree. But if you are a public figure and want a presence online but hundreds on thousands of people hate you, none of individually harassing you but each sending a message you would spend over half your time banning people. Thats not having thin skin thats not having the time to enjoy the net.

Do the messages pop up when you open your browser?

Too bad. Have a separate pseudonymous account for actually using the internet. Have another publicity page managed by your agent.

Do they prevent you from using the internet until youve awnsered each one?

As far as im aware you can freely ignore messages and continue to browse the internet.

before the internet i have to imagine that public figures got hate mail, though probably not in the quantity that they probably get online messages. still your ways of dealing with either the old form of hate and the new form of hate have to be exactly the same, as they are the same thing in principle dispite different quantity and media form. however, are people who are assholes completely absolved of their actions dispite only being individuals who have all their attention pointing in the the same direction? people should be strong enough to get over assholes, but at the same time assholes are bad

If you think that a celebrity can actually have an account on Twitter or Instagram or whatever where they just act like a regular normie jackoff and not have an experience different from joe blow, you're nuts.

but they may want to be normal

Like should Trump expect that his Twitter is going to be free of harassment?

theres a difference between a politician who has control over life and death of millions compaired to an actor

I disagree, but what about Kanye then?

you disagree? how can you disagree?

Should he be able to post his thoughts on social media without getting dogpiled?

its a different job

its so different that the comparison is mindboggling

its like apples to dogs

Because if celebrities must be kept safe from negative comments, these social media companies are going to have to invest heavily in censoring technology.

Humans won't be able to handle the job.

A small time actor will not have a money to have someone manage their account and yes it can stop you from using the net. You have to read a mesage to work out if you want to ban that person. Therer come a point where you are spending more time blocking ppl than have a convocation.

now were discussing something different

No, we're not. If you're a celebrity you're an idiot if you're associating your real name and identity to a social media account you actually intend to use for personal use.

And if you don't intend to use it for personal use, then you have to expect to receive criticism.

What about the account you set up to talk to your fans?

You're going to get hate.

You have to learn to deal with it.
