Basically, Twitter's limitations make everyone seem like more of an asshole than they actually are. This would be helpful to bear in mind, as it would lead to better interactions and less headache for all of us.

That's a very interesting concept - since people tend to follow like-minded people, they must get accustomed to interacting only with those who agree with them, so whenever a "sea lion" approaches for civil debate, he seems like a trespasser. Thanks!

Your reply was comedy gold, unwittingly proving my point for me, so I hope you don't mind, but I screenshotted it and posted it as a tweet.

I don't see the issue. People who needed more than 140 characters just did multiple tweets. It's the reader's choice to read multiple tweets or past the first two lines.

It wasn't always that easy. For instance, during a debate, it was rarely possible to complete a tweet thread before someone else replied, changing the course of the debate. And threads would get lost when 2 people replied to same tweet, etc.

Creating the perception of binary assholes instead of complex beings with varying thoughts and emotions, when viewed from a single tweet.

would switch "prevents" for "disincentivizes" here... laziness and aesthetic pref prevents qualification, not char limit, as far as I've noticed

We'll see if it gets more reasoned and moderate. Time will tell.
