JK Rowling Backlash

This is for topical issues effecting our fair world... you can quit snickering anytime. Note: It is the desire of the leadership of SFDebris Conglomerate that all posters maintain a civil and polite bearing in this forum, regardless of how you feel about any particular issue.

I tend to think about how social media has solely developed politics today. Attention to issues is much more refined. And the way PR works has become profoundly fluid and I think the shockwave social media made was pretty verberative.
