I'm not convinced humanity is equipped to deal with what social media is capable of unleashing.
Yeah, most people can take being told they're an idiot by a person or a few. Social media on the other hand allows some coincidence or celebrity to make you basically front page news, and get you called an idiot by hundreds of thousands of people.
I think very few people are equipped to deal with something like that.
