The Left is a lot better at this social media astroturf pressure campaigns than the Right. Just like Rush Limbaugh advertisers or Bill O'Reilly ones, etc. A Lefty blog runs an article that some car rental agency offers discounts to NRA members, the harpies descend on them and boom, it's dead by the next day. I can't think of the Right ever doing that so efficiently.

These are spineless, worthless companies, sure, but still.

The difference between the “Left” and the NRA is that the left “is” Astroturf, while the NRA represents large numbers of real people. A lot of companies are about to find out about that difference.

” can’t think of the Right ever doing that so efficiently.”

Ever been to ChikFilA? When conservatives get their collective $hit together it a an awesome sight to behold. Problem is we don’t really have grassroots leaders. We don’t use slogans, we don’t have someone to bankroll us.

And we have jobs.

Lovable fuzzball Rush is making bank and more relevant than in a decade; and irratic megalomaniac PhoneJob did himself in and deserved to be served...

Some are legit users who are acting on emotion because some lefty blog said to, the majority are probably bots.
