I agree that Twitter's main user segment is interested primarily in entertainment. A very small subset of users are actually interested in taking things into idealand. The majority of social tweets are memes, jokes, trolls, and hot takes with a "don't @ me" mentality. The people who want to talk about ideas are probably in private groups, niche subreddits, and forums, but that number at any time is certainly less than the number of people who are looking for entertainment.
