It used to be that if you were queer - in any sense of 
  the word - and lived in one of the countless small, 
  conservative, traditional communities in this country, 
  you were shit out of luck.

As bad as that was, in the past you could move to another of the 380,000 towns on this planet.

Today, if your social media trail renders you unemployable (or the target of persecution) there's no longer any corner of the planet to which you can escape.

Edit: People seem to be misinterpreting my meaning entirely. By 'unemployable' I was thinking of, for example, racy photos. By 'persecution' I mean actual IRL stalking/assault etc. The kind of example I had in mind was, say, a racy photo from Pride Parade following someone around for the rest of their living days, preventing them from working at certain lawfirms, or attracting the attention of some violent psycho.
