> Orwell’s “Two Minutes Hate”

That's what I think of the top popularity celebrity accounts. They show us some message, millions of people see it and then some of them post agreeing/disagreeing tweets. There's no new information in them. It's just shouting into the void, where someone/something sometimes responds with a knee jerk, not because they want a conversation specifically.

It's two minutes of hate with people hating for/against the idea sitting in rooms separated by a thin wall so they can hear each other.
