Haven't studies shown that people aren't interested in perspectives that counter their own? I'm not on Twitter for these beefs anyway. I say demote all of it and promote the things that humans generally have in common - hobbies, sports, food, community, etc.
But I can't see it happening because it would reduce engagement for the majority of people and thus Twitter's overall value.
So many platforms go to crap chasing money. eBay went from auctioning off your second hand stuff to buy-it-now for small business. Craigslist is full of car dealers listing things for $1 and spamming keywords. Etsy was handmade things but gradually overwhelmed with AliExpress junk.
