seems like there is another company/group/person almost ever week that says something pretty harmless and it is blown way out of proportion and picked up by all the sites looking for a sexy, click bait, headline. now sometimes these angry mobs are a good thing. like with cosby. if even 1 of the 20+ women accusing him is telling the truth hes a total douche and deserves everything hes getting. but the flip side is stories like when a comedian makes jokes and people get all up in arms about it. artie comes to mind there.
i started this thread cause i found this article:
Kansas City police apologize for anti-transgender tweetalong - NY Daily News
i like following the kcpd tweet along. they are often enjoyable reading. tell me whats so bad about this:
everyone here knows im a huge supporter of lgbt rights but this isnt about that. they got backlash for being anti trans and had to apologize. i guess they used the words "him/her". also people are saying that they harass the trans community. but it says that the person told the cops she was thinking about whoring that night. so i dont get it. it kinda upsets me when i see stuff like this, a non issue forced into the news.
there are a million more examples of this and im sure ill post new ones when they come up but this story just got me thinking it might be a good topic for the lounge.
