He was the Mill  that had a scandalous affair

  and went on seances with the likes of Erasmus Darwin.  [Charles never had any 
truck for that sort of thing.]  Mill sure knew what it was to be cancelled.

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:

has some interesting stories like that.

I'm not sure it's "most" ... I don't even remember it being "much". But I 
haven't read it since college. Maybe I'll take another look.
