Funny how I have never seen a map showing the location of all the twatters that said they wanted to kill Romney... |
Vitriol: Floating Sheep mapped out racist tweets about Obama across the country, starting on November 1; Arkansas and Mississippi had the highest concentration of such tweets
A map collected by Floating Sheep, a collective of geography academics, shows the shocking demographic of racist 'hate tweets,' many of them collected from states that were won by Romney.
Arkansas? Academics? |
|
The source site of the map says they made this map using the 395 hate tweets. How many millions are on twitter again?
As someone already said, no mention of the hate and threats of actual violence against the other side. Interesting to note that threats of violence and killing aren't as important as someone using nasty word. |

I find it moderately interesting that the tweet trend leans a bit towards this map...

Thanks for clearing that up. Just thought it was weird that Yankees could be considered racist. (shocking!) The reason they fought the Civil War was to end that right? Plus the state voted to elect a black president (can't win for losing) By your definition everyone is racist to some form or other. |

Arkansas? Academics? I hate to break the news to them, but that really green state next to MS is not Arkansas. |

Oh noes!!!!!!!! They don't like MS
Good we have enough FSA folks here, and for the record <400 tweets from functioning retards and Ole Miss getting rowdy hardly warrents a comparison to the race riots of the civil rights movement. When the media removes Obamas balls from its mouth I'll start to take them seriously, but until then.... Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn if they think I'm a racist, women hating, baby eating monster |
