Honestly, I suspect there isn't a single place on the planet where the majority of the population likes PC culture, or thinks like many of the more vocal types on Twitter do. The stats would probably be pretty similar in the UK, much of Europe, Australia, etc.
Either way, the stats provided also likely hint that the best way to deal with online controversies over political correctness and offensiveness now is simply to ignore them altogether. I mean, at the end of the day, how much of a sales drop does an angry mob on Twitter account for? For many businesses, probably about 0.01% at most. Ignore it, and any issues will just go away on their own eventually.
- toasterlovin 7y agoIt's like the meatspace world never learned the golden rule of the internet: don't feed the trolls.
- quotemstr 7y agoRight. It's appalling how often I see Twitter metrics drive product decisions --- as if Twitter were the real world. It's a cheap and easy substitute for real market research. When you let Twitter lead you around by the nose, you're going to see an awfully distorted view of the world.
