Tous les réseaux sociaux des Oilers ont vu leur nombre d’abonnés augmenter depuis la signature de Bowman.
J’ai trouvé cela intéressant et cela vous donne un bon aperçu de la façon dont les médias sociaux ne vous donnent pas une représentation précise de la population.
On pourrait penser qu’avec ce fil rempli de « boycott des Oilers », « je n’ai plus suivi les Oilers », « je ne les soutiendrai plus jamais », on verrait une forte baisse du nombre d’abonnés et de soutien. J’ai donc décidé de vérifier et j’ai remarqué cela au cours des quatre derniers jours.

Just proves at minimum half of the people Crying saying im not watching next season are full of shit. just posting for clicks and upvotes lmaooo
EVERYONE IS A BAD PERSON!!!!! CAAAAALLLMITY!!!!
People (and bots) also follow accounts they hate. Wouldn’t read anything in to it.
u/LuciusBaggins looks like your post is working 🤣
This just shows how tiny Reddit is – lots of posts saying how ‘all Oilers fans’ are pushing back (even though not even all on Reddit) when Reddit is 10% the size for Oilers fans when compared to Twitter and Instagram (I don’t know Facebook numbers since I don’t use it).
Especially for Oilers fans Reddit opinion is pretty much the polar opposite of the general consensus.
Consumer boycotts don’t work. Like ever. You can count on one hand the amount of times they have. Any boycott you want to quote me that was successful is the exception that proves the rule.
We seem to be moving beyond companies reacting to social media pressure as well. They are much less worried about it. Corporations have come to learn how much power they hold through brand loyalty and lack of competition.
Musks’ acquisition of Twitter and the fact it has turned into an even more toxic hellscape has actually reduced its influence and power it once had in being able to ‘scare’ corporations (I suspect that was one of his goals).
The sycophants are happy with this news.
Didn’t see that one happening
Probably a bunch of haters following to watch the tire fire this organization has become hiring scumbags.
Bots? Trolls?
If social media doesn’t provide an accurate representation of the population then why does this matter? You’re saying social media is bullshit and your evidence is social media.
Correlating followers with public opinion does not make sense.
TYL that controversy brings more viewers to the scene of the crash.
proves nothing, but your desire to prove your side right is strong.
Signed guy who runs a large company social media account.
It’s almost as if large social media accounts gain followers every day
I’m guessing alot of people are following because they want to know how this will play out, not in support of Bowman.
The loud social media crowd most likely represents less than 1% of the actual fanbase. Which is why they don’t care.
Interesting
Reddit represents the most triggerable, vitriolic, and unobjective people in our society.
Barely a single person here has even read the Chicago investigation report, they’re just spouting news headlines they’ve read, extrapolating that Bowman is some pro-rape monstrosity of a person.
It’s people wanting to watch a shit-show unfold. Not actual interest in the team.
First time I’ve ever hoped for the oilers to win the cup, just for the effect it’ll have on these people.
Reddit is a poor reflection of the public as a whole.
Look at the bright side, at least we got through an excellent off season and made some good moves before he could have any input.
I think we overestimate the value Reddit has in the real world lol.
