So here is a problem: this is The Internet.
   ...

   Whereas once we could make a dopey comment at home, or
 in our neighbourhood bar, the same dopey localised comment
 now made over the internet has a global reach and global
 audience / viewage.

   So, I have some sympathy with the commentators who have
 posted relatively unconsidered opinions (which have their
 own value and are insightful) but who might not have
 anticipated the repercussions of careless commentary. The
 performer grows up in public.

   Maybe now, also the commentator.
