Bobcat Love's Sense of Shame

Jason Whitlock of Ball State writing about Terry Crews, actor (Co-star of NBCs "Brooklyn Nine-Nine) and who also played in the NFL.
I didn't know either of these two but found it interesting that about 7 paragraphs into the article, Whitlock explains how the two competed against one another in the 1988 MAC Championship.
The article is about how in the author's opinion, Twitter is anti-Christian. The article link:

Twitter is anti everything. You can post that Dogs are Cool, and a thousand people will disagree.
It, along with Facebook, has ruined our discourse. But it's done so not because it's representative of a mob, or anything like that. It's done so because we've all decided to insist it is a reflection of the world. It's not real life.
Jason Whitlock says it himself. Terry Crews got "thousands of tweets" that were angry with him. There are 328 million people in the United States. It's a conscious choice to empower the voice of a vocal minority when one could just as easily ignore them. Instead, everybody insists the voices of a few reflect the voices of huge segments of the country.
