That is by design. I follow a security researcher who generally get 10-20 comments/likes on his posts. He and his girlfriend broke up. She has 50 follows on Twitter and posted something vaguely implying the break-up was because he was intimidated by her intelligence. He responded saying that it was more complicated than that. That generated thousands of comments. A lot of the comments were related to the me-too movement. The twitter algorithm must had know this would get people engaged and showed it to a lot of people. From a hundred words I have no idea if he was guilty of some sort of sexism or not, and I have no idea how anyone else could come to a conclusion either. But Twitter algorithm doesn't care about the quality of the conversation, only the fact that it keeps people engaged.
