Note to the left. I do not tweet. Will you take someone who posts as "an evil giraffe" seriously? Can you resist ether attacking the poster, ridiculing me or posting some deranged tweets from the right? LJ, JSG, I have faith in you both.
"The Right uses Twitter as a distributed network of information nodes; data can be passed along from trusted user to trusted user, with β and this is the important point β virtually no way for that data to be jammed by the opposition. The end result? A secure communications matrix that allows the Right to form and keep a gestalt awareness of conditions without being unduly distorted by Lefty agitprop.
Some evidence please? I see only opinion and I don't agree with it, but then I also don't follow any political people on Twitter.
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.β -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

It might be a sign of my age but I see absolutely no point in Twitter, to me it's just more evidence of how self absorbed younger people are. I can see the value in calling a friend or family member and sharing a candid bit of information because I assume my friends and relations actually care about what is going on in my life. Letting anyone and everyone with Internet connectivity know that I'm about to buy a slice of pizza, change the oil in a vehicle, or make dinner seems to me that any one cares or wants to know.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
