He was the Mill that had a scandalous affair <https://www.economist.com/open-future/2018/10/05/the-scandalous-love-affair-that-fuelled-john-stuart-mills-feminism> and went on seances with the likes of Erasmus Darwin.

Yeah, but it's not (I'm assuming) your network that dogpiles you. It's the furreners who get a tiny scrap of data, out of context, that dogpile you. I suppose, the more barely-know-them people you have following your feed, the more likely something you say will be taken out of context and passed on. The Reddit group: <https://www.reddit.com/r/HermanCainAward/new/> https://www.reddit.com/r/HermanCainAward/new/ has some interesting stories like that.
