how many out of tens of thousands of tweets are being used to dis him?

i used to use the term 'bastard' once in a while when ranting about republicans and then i caught myself using it with a new good friend who is actually a 'bastard' who hardly ever saw his father. i still caught myself using the term a couple of times- it had nothing to do with the meaning- it was a word i learned as a derogatory label and never really thought about it.

i don't know if that related to noah's use or supposed use of misogyny and anti-semitism (i havent seen the offending tweets) after growing up in an african country but i present it.....
