Media people talk about Trump trolls, frog twitter, the alt right, etc now on air because:
• they get bombarded on social media, which is basically their only exposure to people outside of their media-politics "elite" bubble, so has the effect of convincing them that we represent the views of millions of people
• they bring it up because they hope they can somehow tie the internet anti-semitism, racism & misogyny to trump in order to damage his campaign— but it doesn't work on Trump— and just sounds like crybabies complaining about random internet trolls
I think this accelerates the culture wars because it makes them get defensive and feel like they have to attack back even harder, which they do through their jobs. But that's what wakes normies up, because they see the media being even more dishonest, getting even more desperate, and seeming to have even more contempt for regular folks and their way of life.
Which is why everyone here should have a twitter account, even if you gain no followers and all you do is follow people and like and retweet. Pics attached feature some tweets from today you could be liking & retweeting.
Those follows, likes and retweets all factor into the popularity algorithms and increase exposure of those people and tweets. This is particularly effective when popular accounts tweet with a trending hashtag and thousands of people are inadvertently exposed to redpills.
If you tweet at people directly and attack too hard, you'll get shoahed, or twitter will ask for your phone number to verify your account, but you don't have to give it and can just make a new account with a new email. Maybe they'll block or IP at some point but I don't know when.
The beauty of adding in elements of absurdity, comedy and eccentricity (like when using waifus and pepes) is that if you get called out, or you get in a pinch, you can just say you're just trolling and their being oversensitive and taking it to seriously.
