An Order of Magnitude

I'm not going to link to this post, but I want to preserve it. Since the conventional wisdom is "don't feed the trolls," it's rare that anyone has the courage to be frank about online harassment.

What I've personally experienced was nowhere near this level, but I don't think Corseque is rounding up these numbers. When people talk about online harassment, they're not talking about one random asshole sending a mean anonymous message. Rather, once people start to dogpile you on social media, dealing with it becomes your entire life until that particular group gets bored and moves on.

I should probably mention that I'm a huge fan of this writer and artist. I don't care about Star Wars, and I don't know anything about Dragon Age, but I always enjoy reading Corseque's essays. In fact, my real and honest goal as a writer is to create the sort of story that Corseque would appreciate and write meta about.
