Twitter bots?

When I go on twitter, no matter the subject, I see the same twitter people loving trump and hating liberals. Are these people most likely bots and how can u tell?

A whole bunch of Eminem “fans” making videos of themselves destroying his cds and claiming they are no longer fans.

World Cup spoiler

US doesnt qualify for World Cup
Tired of all the winning yet.

I am just joking, but it kind of reminds me of when the US (Chicago) did not get the Olympic host bid for 2016 and a lot of right wingers celebrated only because Pres Obama was POTUS

If the civil rights movement took place in this era

I am wondering how things would have went.

Conservative hypocrisy

Pro life - until baby is born, but then against everything that would help the baby succeed (healthcare, food substance, education, etc.)

Pro law enforcement - until it involves white militia groups

Pro flag and country - but also likes confederate emblems

Pro military - but not when a Democrat is POTUS and the army is conducting an exercise in your state

Pro 2nd Amendment- unless it is for black people

Mike Ditka

I know everyone is focusing on his comment about there being no racial suppression for the last 100 years. But the comment that pissed me off was when he said “if you don’t like the country then get out, adios.”

I don’t know where to begin, but basically he is saying if you don’t like racial suppression and injustice then leave. Like we should just take it. And the funny thing is that African Americans’ ancestors were here way before a lot of whites’ ancestors (including Ditka’s Polish/German ancestors).

Conservatives like using that “then get out.” line, but only for liberal protesters. They never used it when the Tea Party was protesting or when Bundy has a stand off with law enforcement.

I just dont get it

The same people up in arms about nfl players “disrespecting” the US, anthem, and flag are the same people who defend the confederate flag and monuments (which is the epitome of disrespecting the US)

Disrespecting the flag

If people truly cared about the flag and anthem and what they are suppose to stand for then they would be angry with the people (like police brutality) who aren’t living up to those ideas. That is really disrespecting the flag.

EPA, Dept of Ed, HUB, DOJ Civil Rights Division, etc

Shouldn’t we stop calling these agencies these names since they are obviously not living up to those names

Tim Murphy, Donald Trump, and Scott DesJarlais

Are proof that Conservative “ Christians” voters are self righteous hypocrites and really don’t care about morals and values as they claim.
