I'd question if the abruptly clipped nature of the conversational medium (twitter) leads automatically to more defensive responses. Some of these communication tools lack completely the nuances of human to human conversation. For example, Pre-COVID, you are having a nice cup of Joe with a chocolate cake at a local coffeshop, sitting in your favorite chair. You happen to engage in a conversational with a stranger, but someone with whom the conversation was intriguing, albeit, completely out of your regular circle. If the stranger, with an attentive face and no negative emotions, in a stable voice, provides some completely contrary information to something you think that you know how might you take it? Now, as a thought exercise, instead imagine the same as a simple blurb on twitter. No context, bereft of humanity, no communication that this person is a friend, enemy, or merely reposting talking points from whichever biases newsmedia they follow. Would you think that the latter would be more likely to result in a negative response, only from the medium difference (and what it lacks)?
