About JJ Vincent
JJ Vincent is a 40-something guy who lives in north Alabama with his two partners and their three dogs, five cats, and a hamster. He's a graphic designer, copyeditor, and polycrafter who is equally fond of knitting and NASCAR and gleefully surrounds himself with pink sparkly things.
Was he the next “Einstein” or was he as qualified as a bunch of others? I had thought he had aced his exams to get in to all 8? Is it very rare to get into all 8?
I have to say that I wouldn’t have batted an eye if the title had been ‘internet gets racist’.
Does that say more about my opinion of people, or of Reddit?
I had the same reaction. “Hateful tweets” is practically a redundant phrase. It should not be news that a small fraction of twitter traffic is hateful and obnoxious. It’s like background radiation. I challenge anyone to find a twitter conversation with more than 100 posts that does not have insane idiots commenting. It’s only significant if there’s a higher-than-average percentage of hate speech.
