Tharoor's got a long career as a senior UN bureaucrat, even making deputy 
secretary general as kofi annan's protege.  Then ran against ban ki moon, lost 
and left

That career would be two or three decades worth of effort, and certainly 
teaches people to be diplomatic and careful in what they say.  Celebrity author 
status + a mistaken idea that all the twitterati are a lot more flippant than 
your average bureaucrat didn't help

He complains of ridiculously high workloads after his africa trip.. on what's 
probably the biggest time sink online

Way to go, I'd say

Well, to be fair, you smirked when you heard that Tweet was a very lonely
man. I found that quite insensitive to Mr. Tweet. I'm not sure if you had
even done the same amount of research Mr. Vadakkan had, or had any idea
about the pain this Tweet person was going through, but you were being quite
high handed there.
