我要评论Word to the social media wise: Not every topical segue is a smart one. Some are just wrong, and oddly classist.
Australian real estate publication Domain.com.au published a story Thursday that raised the notion that Donald Trump's presidential win would be a good thing for local mansion owners. Retribution was swift and vicious.

The story, but especially the accompanying tweet, was met with the Twitter equivalent of a huge, collective eye-roll.
Detractors expressed everything from confusion, to annoyance, to disbelief.

The company responded to their most prominent detractors with template tweets, citing a realisation that the original tweet and headline were "inappropriate."
Thank you for your feedback on our earlier tweet. We agree the tone of the headline was inappropriate and it has since been amended.

The original headline still appears on Google when searched, of course.
