Only to be forgotten or ignored by modern folk who "know better." I wish there was a place to move where you could get away from this stuff, but haven't found one. Closest I have seen is Australia.

Socrates figured out 2300+ years ago that democracy doesn't work long term... I have no intention of helping pay back that massive U.S. debt or the debt amassed by us "puppets to the North" whose politicians really can't think on their own. I'll probably be moving to Sweden or some other country that still hasn't been completely corrupted in a few years. I think we’ll find in time that capitalism inevitably leads to plutocracy.

It will be interesting to see what happens when this repeats itself with someone who has 100,000+ followers -- at that point I would imagine someone could reasonably claim that a tweet damaged their reputation. @Bill: Completely agree -- reminds me of everything we've seen over the past few years with the RIAA. @ Shaun: Yeah, I don’t think this will hold either.

LOL...like that makes me really want to sign a contract with them. If you ask me, that's 1000 times more damaging than a tweet about mold. Another company that has outgrown its usefulness. Still, this does bring up an interesting aspect to the way social media makes your private life/comments public fodder. Instead of complaining over a beer with coworkers, people are publishing their gripes. That means they are liable for libel. This is another case where the laws are falling behind the times. “We’re a sue first, ask questions later kind of an organization”.

I'm fatalistic about this. I think democracies, in fact all successful civilizations, have a self-destruct gene. Life gets good, people get lazy, spoiled and stupid, and forget how really near they are to that nasty thing called harsh reality - until it comes back. I'm still blown away by the new reality that China is now more capitalist than America, while America is arguably becoming more communist than China. Up is the new down, and nobody in America seems to have noticed. And Chinese companies have far fewer scruples than American companies. On second thought, maybe you should be angry, Reece. It's your age group that is going to inherit the bulk of this mess.
