If a tweet is either more than 5 years ago or prior to someone being 18 I don't think it should be allowed to be used against them.

The paper didn't actually initially release the old tweets in the story right? They found it, told him about it, he issued an apology, then it all went public?

So do you believe that we should never forgive people for their mistakes? last I checked, this kids apology was recieved very well. It was very contrite and seems to really show some humility and willingness to grow, which is the most anyone can reasonably ask for. might he lose out on an opportunity or 2 somewhere down the line? probably, but such is the fate of anyone who puts or tacitly endorses offensive (even in the name of comedy) shit online. --- If you're not voting like a black woman, your opinion doesn't matter to me ...

Couple points to note:
1. The article that was written about this dude was a large feature, and only mentioned the tweets in question in two small paragraphs near the end of the article. They werent the focus of the piece at all. 2. The guy held released his apology/press conference statement ahead of the article being published, which generated extra media attention to it. People framing this as some kind of hit piece that backfired are either incredibly misinformed or incredibly dishonest. --- http://weareontherun.bandcamp.com ^^^^^ HEY! ^^^ LISTEN! ^^^^^ ...

People like you are the ones who make us go back to 2005 on MySpace to make sure we delete any offensive comedy from the mid-2000's. The entire point of this is that you shouldn't have to go back 10 years to someone's past to see if they deserve recognition when society itself was in an entire different place 10 years ago. Even stuff like SNL and WWF/WWE back in 2000 that was the norm for comedy like trans jokes would be abolished today. You can't get mad for someone posting in that current climate of 2010 and 9 years later, point and cry about it due to the times changing. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The idea of somehow ignoring racist shit in ones past is steeped in white privilege.

Rules of the internet, but especially Twitter:
1. Don't post anything that can even slightly be interpreted as offensive in any way under your name. 2. Wipe your social media every few years 3. Don't use social media at all if you're a public figure, or if you do, leave it entirely to posting news feeds or something --- Well allons-y, Alonso! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Rules of the internet :
Do not enter any information that can be lead back to you. Learned this when I was a damn kid. No names. No pictures. Nothing. Now i still have social media so somethings are unavoidable. But just keep it as vague and private as possible. Like posts. Share posts. Say congrats to friends and family. But no need for posts.
