What you are seeing is genuine enthusiasm and momentum. I know it's been a while since this has happened, but it's legit.

Some people mistake passion for anger. They see a representation of what they are most familiar with, in context with what they most expect given their environment.

Unfortunately, you're going to see a lot of sentiment just like this: Excited people happy to have something positive to aim for, and those who see that excitement in context of political posting and one-sided arguments.
