It's that beautiful time of year again: election season! During this sensitive time in our country, remember it is extremely important to make yourself heard and make sure you shut down anyone who disagrees. If you're like me and prefer to remain quiet on social media about your political affiliation, here are some reasons why you should reconsider.
1. Your political rants on Facebook really change people's minds
Make sure you post paragraphs and paragraphs ranting about a political party's views. The longer the post, the better. Bonus points if you insult people who disagree with you. Never mind that most folks have a standpoint they firmly believe in. These posts really change people's minds!
2. The people of the internet love a good debate
No, we don't want to see adorable pictures of your puppy or your beautiful new grandchild! That's old news! What we really want to read is an offensive political status.
3. The more conspiracy theories you come up with, the better
These are actually pretty entertaining. I love reading about how Hillary Clinton is an alien sent from Jupiter to destroy the country and Donald Trump likes to eat kittens for dinner. Keep 'em coming.
From now until November, you might be tempted to deactivate your Facebook or Twitter accounts, but I urge you to put both feet in the boiling political water. Make some popcorn, post something controversial, sit back, and watch the internet burn.
