The map of hate...pretty surprising results!

[davester]

I must say that this is totally unexpected. This is a map of tweets using specific words uses against minorities, gays and disabled people. I expected more variation regarding prejudice against different groups and I'm surprised regarding the east-west divide versus expected deep south racism. This is the map of homophobic words.


If you want to check out the different words here is a link to the interactive map:
