Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey (seen above on November 21, 2016) says there are similarities between Trump's first month as president and the weeks leading up to the Arab Spring
The United States may be going through its own version of the Arab Spring, according to the head of a social media giant.
Americans have taken to Twitter to air their political grievances during President Donald Trump's first month in office similarly to how people in the Middle East did so during the Arab Spring and Iran's Green Revolution, according to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.
Dorsey says that the current American political discourse online resembles 'a lot of the same patterns we've seen during the Iranian Green Revolution and the Arab Spring,' according to Fortune Magazine.
'It was stunning to see how Twitter was being used to have a conversation about the government, with the government,' Dorsey told a tech conference in San Francisco on Wednesday.
He said that Twitter has not traditionally been used as a means to further political discussion.
