Twitter Trolls the Hell Out of Ann Coulter’s Attempt at Hashtag Activism
This is what happens when Ann Coulter tries to mock hashtag activism on Twitter. On Sunday night, Coulter decided to take what appears to be a shot at First Lady Michelle Obama by posting an photo of herself holding a sign with the hashtag #BringBackOurCountry (instead of #BringBackOurGirls, which the first lady recently posted in support of the kidnapped schoolgirls in Nigeria).

So far, whatever point Coulter was trying to make appears to have backfired spectacularly. Moments later, a user named @MestizaMetaphor, who seems to no longer exist, posted a version of Coulter’s photo in which the conservative pundit is holding a blank sheet of paper, telling Twitter, “Have fun kiddos.” And that’s what they did.
Below are some of the most outrageous Photoshopped versions of Coulter’s tweet. Enjoy:

What did we learn? Ann Coulter’s ability to inspire hate remains utterly unmatched.
