    Im probably out of the loop, or just way too tired to work out what you mean.

    Who is the “also internet” part roughly referring to? It reminded me of the sssniperwolf incident, and if i recall, the internet was not happy with that, so it doesn’t make sense to me.

    Im also not comfortable with the generalised use of “the internet” because by its very nature saying “the internet” is almost akin to saying “humans”

    Every individual member of “the internet” is different and has different views, so pointing out a discrepancy and framing it like it shouldn’t be there is a bit redundant.

    Its like saying

    Humans: like affordable housing

    Also humans: raise interest rates to unaffordable levels.

    There are two different groups here that are both humans. So its not particularly useful to group them together with the collective word when trying to point out a disparity.

      Just many many times over the years I have seen little pervs on social media brag how they are citizen journalists and have every right to publish any photo that they could physically take. Since no one has a reasonable expectation of privacy in their own home.
