I think it's best not to look to online personas for Christ-like conduct (although some manage it.) The economic incentives of social media just push everyone towards very un-Christian behavior.
The place I am coming from is that I think far too many of our brothers and sisters in Christ are a part of the economic incentives of social media and instead of being different from the culture around them they are seeking out people that do not act in love. People that do not live and promote the way of Jesus.
That said, there are people doing it the right way. People like Gavin Ortland, Trent Horn, and others across the the spectrum of faith traditions.

Indeed, which is the whole reason our salvation depends on Christ and not on our own righteousness.
