looked at dozens of results pages and lots of Threads and Facebook posts on those Google results pages that quoted her, all recent posts from the last few days, but found none that linked to that Feb. 6 Threads post. I looked at the top of her Threads account, where the most recent post was 4/20 about songwriter Don Schlitz dying, and scrolled back as far as I could before Threads stopped me and said I had to log in, which I can't do. The oldest post I could get to was Feb. 23, the one about the blizzard in NY that says Monday morning on 7th Avenue.
I also scrolled back as far as I could on Facebook and Instagram. And I searched for her name on X to see if there had been any reference to that quote before the last few days, and there hadn't been.
And there were absolutely no news stories about it. Which is especially baffling given how strong that statement was.
It makes no sense that what she'd said a week earlier made the news, but this harsher comment about Trump supporters didn't, and didn't get quoted widely on social media until almost 3 months later.
As far as I could tell from searching, that post wasn't there and there weren't any posts referring to that quote until a few days ago.
In fact, when I do a Google search using site:threads.net and keywords so I'm searching for
rosanne cash "twist your humanity" site:threads.net
which should definitely turn up her own post on Threads, the only Threads post that turns up is one from Thomas Michael Corrigan, and not her post. Corrigan's post with part of that quote and no date, looking like just one more of the posts the last few days with that quote.
I spent hours searching for a post of her own with those words, and news stories about it, and other people referring to it before the last few days. And none of that showed up. Whether searching Google, then searching X and Reddit separately, then scrolling back on Meta - but now I see I got the "Log in to see more from rosannecash." message on Threads just short of that old post.
So I was wrong, despite having done a very long online search every way I was able to search. I'm especially confused that my search specific to Threads didn't find her post.
And somehow that 2/6 post of hers that should have been all over social media and the news as soon as she made it didn't make the news at all, and after the immediate replies on Threads just disappeared from social media for more than two months, until it popped up in late April, on both X and Meta, apparently unrelated to anything she'd said lately.
This is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen with social media.
But the post is there, even though it eluded all that searching and still won't show up when I search for it.
Your direct link works. I can't explain why search didn't.
I just tried using that Google search string with threads.net on Bing in case that might've worked better. Bing gave me nothing but results about Roseanne Barr. Bing search seems to be completely broken. I just tried it with DuckDuckGo as well, and that didn't offer results on Roseanne Barr, but told me
No results found for rosanne cash "twist your humanity" site:threads.net
but when I removed site:threads.net from the search string, it turned up a few results from the last 24 hours from DU, Instagram.and Facebook, but nothing else. So both Bing and DuckDuckGo are much worse than Google, though Google failed to find the 2/6 Threads post from.Rosanne Cash.
I'm exhausted, and baffled, and very sorry I was wrong, but I searched for hours, as carefully as I could, and never found the link you posted.
How did you find the link? Can you log in to Threads? I'd assumed Google would have had all of Rosanne's Threads posts.
