As ratings for all sports have declined, ratings and engagement in politics is skyrocketing. This new entertainment factor is very different than the way we have viewed politics (boring) in the past. Political twitter is 🔥, while sports twitter is increasingly meh. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

There are some obvious parallels between religion and sports fanaticism that can (and have) been explored by me and others elsewhere. But politics as sport has a huge entertainment value and significantly different expectations for the players (politicians) and fans (voters). 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Don’t get me wrong, as someone that has been pining for more people (especially youth) to get involved, increased engagement can be good. The problem is when we forget that good politics is WORK and bad politics is SHOW. Good politics is broccoli. Bad politics is cotton candy. 4/ https://t.co/S06h8RRB2r — PolitiTweet.org
