DILBERT, I NEED TO FIRE YOU FOR YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA ACTIVITIES.

DID I SHARE SOMETHING OFFENSIVE?

I'M GETTING REPORTS THAT YOU FOLLOW BAD PEOPLE ON TWITTER.

I FOLLOW PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES OF EVERY ISSUE SO I CAN SEE THE FULL CONTEXT.

THAT MIGHT SOUND GOOD ON PAPER, BUT HALF OF THE PEOPLE YOU FOLLOW ARE MONSTERS OF ONE SORT OR ANOTHER.

ISN'T IT OBVIOUS THAT ENFORCING THIS KIND OF STANDARD CAN ONLY LEAD IN A BAD DIRECTION?

NO, I DONT SEE THAT AT ALL.

ALL I SEE IS THAT YOU ASSOCIATE WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE MONSTERS.

I'M GETTING REPORTS THAT YOU FOLLOW DILBERT ON TWITTER.
