The #abvote hashtag and conversation has been a bit of a gong show for a while. Trust me, I've spent far too much time over the past month looking at it. That being said, it doesn't shock me that it's that heated at the moment, the whole thing has been boiling over for weeks. When you have an unfiltered and unmoderated avenue to express opinions with a bit of anonymity, it can turn bad really quick.
