Part of why I hate social media is because it elevates people with no special talent or appeal into “public figures”.

Who is Brianna Wu? I had never heard of her my entire life until a month or two ago when somebody posted about her on this site. All I know about her is she was harassed by gamer-gaters back in the early 2010s, and that she now has strong political opinions that seem largely based on who she dislikes on twitter.
