Typing this regardless of the thread being flagged and disappearing - but I've a comment on Twitter generally. This, to me, seems the result of a Western tech company meeting the world. It's a result of growing and enlarging the people using it. It's an indication of different cultures, societies and ways of looking at the world. To get more people, Twitter has been forced to appeal to a wider range of people. When it started it was just people like us, techies, using it. It was good, remember? So we are seeing what happens when cultures and people clash. If anything, Twitter needs to make the bubble better, not reduce the bubble. Facebook does this really well - things can be shared from outside the circle but its not usually some internal comment thread. Twitter makes it too easy for different people to talk to each other. As humans, the best way is to have more empathy for others, to understand that other people you encounter may have different world views. Most online conflict occurs not due to ideas but to lack of empathy of others. Twitter as it is does not encourage empathy between people.
