“Even without a profile, searching your name on twitter is extremely common, especially if you're a celebrity, as I am and will be until the day I die. I shamefully admit that after quitting twitter, I used to search 'James Acaster' numerous times throughout the day. Don't get me wrong, the very act of searching 'James Acaster' isn't anything to be ashamed of. Most people search those very words during their lifetime. In fact, it's one of the most popular web searches out there. It only adopts a tinge of sadness when the person searching 'James Acaster' is James Acaster himself and as James Acaster, that's the position I found myself in.”

“Spartans tended to be silent, or say very little. They were encouraged to give answers that were as short as possible, a style called “Laconic” (since the Spartans came from Laconia). The Spartans would have been amazing users of Twitter. Their tweets would have been supremely concise, abrupt and rude. They made short answers into an art form. The ideal was to produce just one-word answers to devastate their enemies.”
― Tom Strabo, Donald J. Trump: The American Pericles?

― Phillip Andrew Bennett Low, Monsters in a Mirror: Strange Tales from the Chapel Perilous

“I glance over to see a strangely familiar figure standing nearby, nodding toward me in the dim light of the evening. They appear to be a giant blue bird with a massive red circle around them, along with a diagonal line slashed across the middle.

"Do I know you?" I question as the strange manifestation steps forward. Suddenly, I snap my fingers with recognition.
"You're Tromp's Twitter ban!" I blurt. "That's where I've seen you before!"

The giant bird shakes his head. "I'm afraid not. This time around I'm your Twitter ban.”

“Las redes se han convertido en el medio ideal para instaurar nuevos dogmas y aplastar al oponente justo cuando más convendría escucharlo.”
― Douglas Murray, The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race and Identity

“Internet nos ayuda a recordar, pero también nos lleva a abordar el pasado desde una extraña omnisciencia. Esto convierte al pasado -como todo lo demás- en rehén de cualquier arqueólogo con sed de venganza.”
― Douglas Murray, The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race and Identity

“Antes de la aparición de internet, los errores de alguien podían ser recordados dentro de su comunidad o su círculo íntimo. Empezar de cero en otro lugar era, al menos, una posibilidad. Actualmente, las personas son perseguidas por su doble allá donde vayan. Incluso después de muertas, habrá quien las exhume y saquee su tumba, no con la intención de conocer y perdonar, sino con afán de represalia y venganza. Por debajo de esta actitud subyace el extraño instinto revanchista de nuestra época, un instinto hace que nos creamos mejores que nuestros antepasados, pues sabemos cómo se comportaron y que nosotros los habríamos hecho mejor. Detrás de esto se oculta una falacia colosal: evidentemente, la gente de hoy en día cree que habría actuado mejor porque sabe cómo termina la historia, pero nuestros ancestros no contaban con ese lujo.”
― Douglas Murray, The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race and Identity

“If you want something to stay secret, don’t tweet about it for a decade. If you don’t want to ruin a neighborhood, shut the fuck up. (Or don’t move there in the first place.)”
