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.
theres a difference between criticism and insult
The only way to turn the internet into a hugbox is powerful machine-driven censorship.
your responce to the problem is "i like the way things are and anyone who has a problem with the way things are legitiment or not can fuck off" its not a very useful responce
Because this isn't a problem.
it is a problem
You do have the right to insult someone
its older than the internet
If I go down to speaker's corner and say stuff that people don't like, I can expect a crowd to yell shit at me.
You do not have the right to make them listen to your insults
It's not a bug. It's a feature.
The only way to prevent the crowd yelling shit at me is censorship.
The crowd is just bigger online.
the internet for these people is like a place where to expose themselves as who they really are requires them to be exposed to mobs, mob sized quantitys of both praise and hate. its like walking down the street to the groscery store while being followed by thousands of people cheering and booing constantly and your responce is "the only way to solve this (and i would even take the time to consiter any other solution) would ruin everything so this person has to suffer the consaquences of the system"
They can make a pseudonymous account. They do not have to use their real identity.
how fun
What is your proposal?
i havent gotten to one yet, ive been to busy pointing out how giving up on finding a solution isint a solution
^^
its simply the status quo until something better comes along
"something better" is probably going to be some form of machine driven censorship, because how else are you going to prevent people from saying what they want to say to a public figure on social media?
some bot will detect an insult and shadowban you. the celebrity gets to bask in a sea of only positive comments.
