You have no idea what you are talking about. One of the biggest follows on Twitter is Rita Panahi.

That's because as one of the few right-wingers on there, she attracts every right-winger as a follower.

Whereas left-wingers are spread out amongst 90% of others.

Oh and obviously Rita engages in global right-wing political convos, her followers are as much from UK or US as here these days.

Was just showing him that he's a moron who believes that right of centre people aren't on twitter.

Well done, you have spotter a right-winger on twitter! Wow. Didn't know some were on there.

Ya know, your point may have had some relevance if a certain left-wing US President didn't have about double the amount of follows as Trump...

See, the problem is there are morons out there that think right-winger simply EXISTING is evidence of balance, or even bias. Rather than looking at things as a whole.

How is it the "lefts" fault that Obama has more followers? Maybe more people identify with him? Either way your lack of understanding of social media is hilarious, like an old person in a nursing home trying to use an iPad.

Er yes, that's exactly what I'm saying, lol. More people identify with left-wing figures on twitter because most users are left-wing. Pretty simple stuff. But, no, not the "lefts fault", not sure where you got that weird statement from.

Nice troll, but I'm not biting. I understand twitter perfectly well. Are you the guy a couple weeks ago that said here 25% of all Australians use twitter each week, and then we did some analysis and found out it was roughly 3% instead? lol. If you weren't that guy, then do a search and read up. :thumbsu:

Don't have to attack me personally just because you're salty with the weekend's results!

There are 326million twitter accounts and you are saying that 293million of them are left wing? So how does that account for Trumps 40million followers. 326-293 = < 40.

QED. Still funny you think that the people using social media are the media or trying to boost their media profile... Some people just like posting cat pictures.

Bad maths - have you ever seen one of Trump's tweets? 95% of below the tweet comments and likes and retweets are from blue tick liberal comedians and their supporters. Actually, Trump probably has more left wing followers than anyone else, lol.

You can comment on a tweet without having to follow someone. How's the iPad grandpa?

Location: London? Oh, can see you wouldn't have your finger on the pulse currently with Australian politics, see this is the problem when people's understanding of politics simply comes through what they read on twitter or read in media articles. I'm sure you're making in roads with the Islington crowd though. :thumbsu:

Hah so much Paranoia here. You probably shared Fraser Annings post on social media. Remember this is a global world now - You can keep up to date quite easily with Australian politics via this fandangled interwebs.

But even more lel worthy is saying Islington because it has a high muslim population. So much fear. I'll tell you what happens in the end of the world. The Muslims swamp Australia and use you as a slave.

Hahaha - in common UK political parlance Islington set is used as an alternative term for those championing champagne socialism, ala Blair's new Labour. Nothing to do with Muslims. Christ, you're even out of touch with where you are!

Not at all, I criticised Fraser Anning quite strongly here at the time.
