For this analysis, there is no specific and final conclusion, but rather a look to the next steps to take. In regards to this specific set of data, I believe that this step would be to keep searching. More platforms, more people, more times of day, more trolls, more advocates, older posts, newer posts. More. There will always be more to examine and analyze on social media, but I think at some point you have to stop and examine the why. In this analysis, I was not able to get to the why of this social media behavior for the sake of time and argument, but this would be the next big step in expanding this search even further. The answer probably has something to do with the natural state of close-mindedness, ignorance, and self-preservation that humans seem to always fall back on; this has been reflected in the followership of Trump. I get the same feeling that I did when reading the character of President Snow from the Hunger Games series, only now, it is way more real. A little juvenile, but relatable. May the odds be ever in favor? Only time will tell.
