I Tweeted this image
in reply to Sam Knight's reply to Glenn Greenwald's tweet attacking Hillary Clinton. I didn’t do so to defend Hillary but rather to make light of the fact that Greenwald’s twitter feed is a non-stop assault on Democrats and MSNBC while he seldom criticizes Republicans / Libertarians or Fox News for the same (or worse).
What was the response to this tweet?
Over the next couple of hours I had about 200 twitter notifications. (I probably average 1 or 2 or day normally. If that.)
I was called, among other things:
stupid, base, turd, ass kisser, incoherent, dull, goofy, unreliable, piece of shit, exceptionally confused, tedious, combative, and witless
Also, for seemingly no reason at all, Pando editor Paul Carr was mentioned 7 times in tweets @ me.
I guess I was wrong to compare Sam Knight to a Dittohead. Sorry Sam! Look forward to reading your stuff at First Look Media.
