I don’t “do” social media. I have lots of problems but adding the descriptor “lemming” to my profile ain’t one of ‘em.

Lemming far from what a twitter follower is.

Forums are a part of social media, but I know what you mean. Although just reading tweets wouldn’t necessarily turn you into a lemming. Can be highly entertaining although very time-consuming if one isn’t careful.

I consider those who dare to slog into the Twitter swamp in order to take the air out of propaganda-Twits’ balloons as performing a great service.

Too bad...it's one of the battlefields for the hearts and minds of America.

Yeah, well...it may turn out that social media which bypasses much of the curating and filtering of the MSM may just be the thing that keeps Hillary out of the White House.

So you can congratulate yourself on helping I guess.

“...don’t do social media...”

I don’t either however I am very grateful for those Trump supporters (often very clever and witty!) who can and will use it.

Using social media in this day and age to communicate is an absolute necessity.

This is the only way we are going to reach the millenials and the others who ONLY get their news from twitter and such.

It is fabulous that Trump uses twitter, youtube, etc. to his advantage to reach audiences that he would never reach otehrwise.

I don’t “do” Twitter or FB because I think it opens people up to lack-of-privacy issues.

For this election, though, I think social media will be our saving grace — the only way to combat the MSM other than Divine Providence. My sister gets out important political info to people who need to know via FB and Twitter, and I think it’s a wonderful thing.

While I don’t do it, I don’t feel morally superior because I don’t.
