It wasn't going in a great direction anyway, but I'm genuinely convinced that Twitter has shot the knees out from society's ability to have civil discussions.
Everything is split into sides, there's no space for nuanced discussion, and the vast majority of weapons on there are playing to the gallery for digital likes, which inevitably pushes opinions out to the most extreme.
It has pretty much taught people that discussion is coming up with a snappy one liner and then using it to "win" the conversation.
Back when I was on there I had a friend who said Nigel Farage was a "Pound shop Enoch Powell" and about five or six times over the next couple of weeks she kept retweeting herself and saying "quite proud of this one" obviously picking up a lot of "likes". The thing is that actually it was Russel Brand who used the phrase a few months earlier on TV. When I pointed this out? Blocked, of course.
You can see it now with our recent celebrations. All these complete @rseholes trying to see who can come up with the either the most outraged or the most "witty" tweet to get one over on our supporters.
As others have said, there is no way the SNP, Police Scotland and Rangers don't have direct lines of communication with each other. Yet you've got all these politicians using Twitter to make their point. Why?
Look at Sturgeon. Why the f*ck is she making her points to Rangers on the Twitter platform?
Does she even know who runs the Rangers twitter account and what kind of influence they might even have at the club.
Our Twitter page is for promoting the club.
Not public safety announcements and certainly not to answer on behalf of fans.
It's just grandstanding because she congratulated Rangers and her followers took a huff so she had to come back out with "strong words".
