lol

Twitter has 400 million users GLOBALLY. How many are bots? How many are active? How many are "anti-capitalists"?

Twitter is not representative of anything except twitter.

You say that, but the memes and quotes generated from twitter posts and threads spread far and wide. You'll see people who don't even use Twitter quoting things almost verbatim 3 months after it blew up. Same with 4chan and the fringe right sadly. The memes, like "OK Groomer" start out in some weird radical place but then catch elsewhere if they are viral enough.
