She thinks the internet is a terrible place, yet she seems to think nothing of putting hateful content out there.

Oh wait, there's context to those hateful tweets. Sorry, I keep forgetting that there's context to the things we say and do. I guess I forgot that context still exists in our viral-story-obsessed culture.

Seriously though, why anyone still thinks that it's okay to act like an a-hole on the internet and then - with no self-awareness - criticize the culture they've helped fashion.

I think Miss Jeong needs to grow up.

I don't think someone that vicious has anything to tell us about the Internet.

"I'm not embarrassed by any of those tweets."
