I remember when a wannabe internet censor complained about being "harassed" and there were like five or so replies to one of their posts which were critical.

Interesting how it's always the harassment of public figures which specific politicians are most interested in.

While it's plausible that "harassment" is coming in in some other form, visible posts seemed fairly civil.

This was also an official who behaved *deliberately provocatively*, then they were upset about how people apparently responded to them.

From what I could see though, they received relatively few responses, even at the best / worst of times.

I think there is "harassment" (someone said something mean to me online), and then there is *harassment* and that is quite a bit different. Plus, this is a government official delving into the thorny area of speech.
