I agree with you that alot of people do get too emotionally invested on sites like Twitter and Facebook etc, but JK Rowling and other Celebrities shouldn't be giving these kinds of people ammunition.

I disagree. I think people shouldn't hide their true beliefs (their real identity) because a mob mentality could develop. That's part of the issue. Nobody wants to be called racist or some other -phobic word. So people hide their true opinion and craft false personas. When you add it all up, it makes a toxic environment, because it means that everything is--at best--"true" only on a surface level.

That doesn't sound like the open world I'd want myself or my children to grow up in... anyway, beating a dead horse I think with Twitter because it's already too far gone imo ... I think I will just stop using social media entirely and move my news feeds back to RSS.
