Sure we are allowed to criticize someone and if that person has voluntarily posted their content then that person opens themselves up. So much of what happens now is someone filmed without their consent and that video is then posted to social media and the person is doomed. Think of your worst moment and then imagine it was filmed and posted to social media where 100k other people shared it. Very hard to recover from something like that. Imagine for the rest of your life whenever an employer googles your name, the video of that worst moment is the first result. Unless someone is actively doing something that endangers another person, its very rare that the punishment meted out by social media is warranted by the transgression.
- foolfoolz 5y agoit’s unfair that what used to be a passing mistake has turned into the permanent record of your failures. and i think this is much worse for kids than adults
- standardUser 5y agoHow often does someone, let alone your potential employer, actually know (or care) the name of the person in some embarrassing viral video? It seems like a rare exception for someone to face meaningful blowback from this scenario.
