I remember someone, probably the NME, puncturing the ego of a massive rock star by saying, "C'mon, you're just some bloke who runs a danceband!" Someone needs to tell Twitter's Jack Dorsey, "C'mon, you're just some guy who runs a bulletin board." He has no clue how to steer his glorified BBS now 45 is using it to promote his fave racists.
Can you imagine the owner/moderator of Birmingham Area Sega Fans or whatever message board you grew up on handling international diplomacy? Those mods couldn't handle the split when two members divorced and stopped speaking to each other. The weird one who kept saying she had cancer just to get attention? The one who wouldn't shut up about his collection? Nobody's ever managed to deal with that, never mind a standoff between two nuclear armed states.
People ought to stop treating Twitter like it's the First Amendment and the Second Coming wrapped up in cute 280 character packages. Similar goes for Facey McFacebookface, whatever his name is.
