We are roughly a week removed from the BEYOND REALITY EXPERIENCE that was the Stadium Series Weekend, already some folks on Canes social media have already moved past the acrimony and excitement in sharing our team with each other into this whirlwind of nastiness. Trolls, gatekeepers, and haters are going to populate every group of people. Canes fans are no different.
Some people point to the base nature of social media, but I think the nature of this problem goes beyond that. On the surface, you can say it falls on the basic idea that people fail to read past their gut reaction, take a minute before responding, or simply forget this is all a game.
