    128 character limit meant it was always just going to be bumper sticker style communication, and little else.

    Media loves it because it’s nothing but proverbial soundbites, completely decontextualized from any greater meaning.

    People love it because people love shouting meaningless slogans and quotes and pretending they are the epitome of depth of meaning, belief, and argumentation.

    It’s stupid because it was designed for stupid people.
