    @jegga Why are people (aside from Twitter being Twitter) melting down over that pic, I think it looks kind of interesting.

    It’s a cool pic , the guy is a Bernie activist and plugs the green new deal and they are mocking him for being out of touch . I’m not going to get into that but the responses are quite funny though if you like sarcasm

    That sums up everything wrong with Twitter. To me it was clear he was referring to the different colours/gradients in the environment, not the fact that it's farmland. And yet a whole swathe of people (who just happen to be on the other side of politics to him) accuse him of being a complete moron. Everyone proceeds to get angry with one another for no real reason. Rinse and repeat.

    Really? Different seeding times/ crop and sowing direction affecting light refraction doesn't immediately enter as a reason?

    There's a difference between it being interesting and someone publicly proclaiming they're an ignorant imbecile.

    What is wrong with saying you don't know about something when you don't know about something?

    On the surface of it, nothing. But I'd wager a child could easily guess that patterns that don't exist in nature would be man made and logically come to the conclusion that where farmland exists, they might be looking at farms.

    That's before we discuss the laziness of people who have access to twitter, but can't be bothered using a search engine.

    No. I'm not a farmer, and I wouldn't have thought of that. Is there something wrong with me?

    I can't see the problem in admitting you don't know something, even if it may be obvious to others.

    He clearly knew they were farms, but didn't know why the landscape looked how it did from above.

    You base that on what? Nothing in his original tweet suggests that.

    'This is land by the Colorado, Kansas border from a plane. Pretty cool. I have no idea how/ why it looks like this'

    Had he said 'farmland by the Colorado, Kansas border' you may have a point.

    I can't help but feel I'd be more productive if the internet was blocked here.

    I'm more interested in the guy saying USA basically feeds the whole world like a know it all.

    That can't be even close to true?
