Tbh this isn’t even Twitter brain as much as its general social media brain. You only ever see a curated reel of the very worst of your enemy designed to maximize your autonomic nervous system response that keeps you on the website looking at ads

100% agree with this, but I do think it's kind of extraordinary that none of these people ever consider the possibility they aren't seeing a representative sample

Tbh my biggest lesson from social media is that smart people do think that they are immune from all sorts of thinking traps

the internet mostly killed any belief i had that something that could responsibly be called "smart people" exists

There's obviously significant individual variation in how cooked people's brains gets on social media. The ones who say things like that are the ones most liable to get cooked.
