The problem with social media, and our dependence on it, is that it allows people to present and receive whatever angle they want, biased or not, fair or not. It’s the “power of the press” without the objectivity or accountability demanded of the actual press. And it has enabled a dangerous vigilantism that makes those who use that power no different from the ones they are supposedly rallying against. Think about it.

Who was worse: McHenry or the people who made that video public, and who did so without owning up to their part in the conversation? Who is worse: Britt McHenry for childishly mocking a confrontational tow employee’s bad teeth, or the Twitter masses who call for justice and “the return of class” — who express views like, “Part of me feels bad for Britt McHenry. Poor thing actually believes she was hired for ‘brains’ and ‘education’?

Shouldn’t they question whether, in fact, McHenry could have actually been standing up for herself?
