As @sjjphd explains, Twitter has shifted power. The next time someone is criticizing "Twitter," it's worth asking: do they not know Twitter has given power to perspectives/people previously ignored or is that power shift really what they are upset about? https://t.co/DHiQYfQCn7 https://t.co/IOqSeh2k8h — PolitiTweet.org

A lot of "Twitter is not real life" is really, "Twitter gives people who don't have a lot of offline power the ability to criticize/disagree with me--and do they know who I am?" https://t.co/DHiQYfQCn7 https://t.co/F9Vs0VZEfE — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats defeated a Trump-like figure (Matt Bevin) in Kentucky last month. Does that tell us anything about how the party should take on Trump next year? Yes, says @EricHyers, who ran Andy Beshear's successful campaign. https://t.co/5a3xY3C5DB — PolitiTweet.org
