I really don't have any sympathy whatsoever for the actors or creators who get "harassed on the internet" and complain about it. Not one iota. People have been saying mean things on the internet since the internet. Who cares? Get thicker skin or get out of the industry, I say. Nothing seems more pathetic to me than people -- particularly successful people -- claiming victimhood status because of tweets or nasty posts. If those things can "ruin their lives," then that says way more about them than the people making the tweets or posts.
