A good summary. I doubt the person who tweeted (?xed?) that ignorance is going to read it, though. And even if they were to read it, would probably not listen. This is moon-landing-hoax level ignorance and its most likely performative and maliciously intended.

But kudos to you still. I hope your post reaches other ill-informed, but less ignorant people, who need to hear this and might even appreciate, that you are enlightening the dark sides of their knowledge.

The platform should be called Xitter and a tweet is a xeet now. So “someone tweeted a tweet” is now “someone xat a xeet”. The X is pronounced “sh” like in shine. Hope this helps.

I'm linguistically 100% convinced. Somehow I have an intuitive understanding of the concept. Wonder where that came from...
