Hey now, this only is true about 99% of the time. Twitter’s like a broken clock, right for 2 minutes per day, usually on some completely bland topic that has managed to not offend anyone (yet).
But it’s definitely true that the other 1438 of the 1440 minutes in a day, the majority trending opinion on Twitter is the opposite of what a wise society would do or think or focus on.
They know the article would get mocked as absurd, and it undercuts the goal of the article, which is to pump up a fake controversy as if it is serious and thoughtful, rather than something that’s only controversial to a ridiculous and extremely negligible fraction of the audience.
