This is the stupidest possible reason for not liking Twitter.You’ve ironically pointed it out.
The character limit on Twitter makes it a great echo chamber to post mob opinions without any supporting evidence, and to get positive reinforcement through likes and shares.
Kind of like your posts deriding it.
I’m fascinated with geology. All aspects of it - rocks, stratigraphy, volcanoes, seismology, etc. I follow a ton of smart geologists from every field on Twitter. They have interesting things to say about a recent EQ, or eruption, or some expertise or context for some subject I’m interested in. Sometimes, I’ll ask them a question, which spurs a conversation. It’s a way to interact with people you don’t normally have the opportunity to meet in person.
It’s not all about arguing, or politics. It’s about connecting with other people who share your passions and interests.
