I've become so disenchanted with internet vitriol that it's surreal seeing these trolls attack a social media presence that's geniunely deserving. Still, I wouldn't invite any of these people to my house.

I think this is one of the most profound statements I've read all year. Perfectly sums up all the quiet backlash by middle America against the trolls that have pulled the party into extremes.

It's not that they're bad people, they just get over excited and nobody wants to deal with the headache right now.

I see it at work in the lunch room conversations where someone starts spewing passive aggressive hate and it really kills the vibe.

Negative people should be terminated after a few days of confirmation that they are negative. The dose makes the poison so you have to get them out quickly.
