re: #323 The Ghost of a Flea

The problem is that you have people with a shallow understanding of culture (on the internet) doing callouts with little reference to the specific cultural base and the meaning of the object.

But what we have now is people—many of whom aren’t of the culture in question—jumping to the big reaction without waiting to appreciate the meaning of the item in its original context.

When the entire climate of discourse is based onTweets and Internet memes, it is easy to get derailed.
