The events that unfolded this weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia have sparked reactions from all corners of the internet. But one Twitter user, former President Barack Obama, had a response that resonated with millions.<\/p>\n

Last night, this tweet from Obama became the most-liked tweet on the platform ever<\/a>, with more than 3 million likes at the time of writing.<\/p>\n

Sadly, this common-sense tweet stands in direct opposition to a shocking number of people who side with the Alt-Right, including current President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

But what\u2019s more interesting, perhaps, is the lens that Twitter offers us through which to view the world. In 2014, the most retweeted and liked tweets on the platform included Ellen Degeneres\u2019 Oscars selfie.<\/p>\n

It was followed by Justin Bieber\u2019s\u2026 this:<\/p>\n

\n

YOU ARE ALL WORTHY NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS BE STRONG GOD IS WITH US ALL MY BELIEBERS CHANGED MY LIFE I WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL<\/p>\n

\u2014 Justin Bieber (@justinbieber) January 24, 2014<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

This year, the second-most liked tweet was Ariana Grande\u2019s reaction to the Manchester bombing:<\/p>\n

\n

broken.
from the bottom of my heart, i am so so sorry. i don’t have words.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) May 23, 2017<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

To be fair, all hope is not lost. The #NuggsForCarter<\/a> kid still holds the record for most retweets this year, at 3.42 million. But truthfully, that doesn\u2019t offer much solace.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s depressing AF that the most-liked tweets of the year, thus far, are in reaction to terrorism and xenophobia, and say something that we should all inherently know: that all people are created equal.<\/p>\n
