4->Now, I only do insurance statistics as a hobby, but according to my numbers, this particular [[MediaScaremongering war on the Catholic church]] affected the lower half of approximately one specific guy.

22->''"Roseanne has always been a racist weirdo, and Creator/JamesGunn [[BlackComedy has always pushed the bounds of good taste with his humor]]. What changed was [[InternetJerk the involvement of internet mobs]]. By capitulating to the Twitter rage of a few thousand assholes, Disney is subtly teaching us that online mobs, no matter how stupid their platform, can make a difference. It doesn't matter if they're right, as long as they're ''loud''. And that's great when it means [[Series/HouseOfCardsUS firing a sex offender]], but it's a hell of a lot less great when it means [[Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2 ousting somebody for a joke they already apologized for years ago]]. [...] In none of these cases are there any kind of core values that the company is adhering to. They'll support or censor whatever appeases the most zealous crowd. Which means they're incentivizing trolls to become bigger and bigger assholes, because it's the only thing that works."''

There's enough mean people."''
26-->-- '''WebVideo/{{STAR}}'''

29-->-- '''[[https://www.youtube.com/c/JulesConroy Jules Conroy]]'''

31->''"At this rate, the vocal minority is [[VideoGame/TheLastOfUsPartII TLOU 2]] fans and haters spewing their opinions down people’s throats while the silent majority is people keeping their opinions to themselves and respecting others."''
32-->-- Random [=YouTuber=]'s reply in one of the debated [[VideoGame/TheLastOfUsPartII TLOU 2]] comment sections on Website/YouTube.

34->''"Many people like to say "[[VideoGame/Halo5Guardians Halo 5]]'s multiplayer is the worst in the franchise". This is contrasted to the respondents, who indicated a more strongly positive reception to Halo 5's multiplayer than VideoGame/Halo4, VideoGame/Halo2, and VideoGame/HaloCombatEvolved. In fact, Halo 5 had one of the lowest plainly negative receptions. Despite not being disliked casually, it has the largest 'Strong Negative' reception. It's this chunk here that is most likely the root of discourse, as people here are highly inclined to publicly attack the game."''
