1/n This is a thread about my experiences in the cesspool otherwise known as Twitter.
2/n Yes, I called it a cesspool. I did that because I find it funny some people will say "yes it& #39;s awful", others will say "no you& #39;re wrong it& #39;s amazing", and yet others will get that I& #39;m joking while also not joking: Twitter is a cesspool, and it also isn& #39;t.
3/n One fun thing is that because of the absence of tone I could write a sentence like "Hannity is probably working with Trump& #39;s campaign to get him re-elected and that& #39;s why he thinks masks are good now".

How you read that sentence differs depending if you& #39;re a Dem/Rep
4/n How I actually mean that sentence is to say simply what I think IS happening. Notice there is no value judgement in there? But I can sure make you THINK there& #39;s a value judgement in there.
5/n There seem to be 2 types of belief systems. 1) "given problem X exists, we should do Y to reduce the impact". 2) "it is bad that X exists, remove X,."

Often 2& #39;s will yell at 1& #39;s for not doing enough or "perpetuating the issue" and 1& #39;s will say 2& #39;s live in fantasyland.
6/n Subtlety is also lost

The">https://twitter.com/PythiaR/s... implicit assumption I wanted readers to think is that an investor is better than an asset manager.

Yet BAM incremental ROIC on $1 of fee income > CSU ROIIC from an additional acquisition.
7/n Another curious thing is that people are FAR nicer in DM& #39;s than they are in public. It& #39;s astounding how much nicer.

That is the exact opposite of what I& #39;d expect, and it is interesting to me to think about why.
8/n In closing, this thread has no point. I find studying people interesting. I find doing it on a platform derived of tone, body language, and with anonymity moreso because weird idiosyncrasies come up. It& #39;s fun putting things out there and seeing the response.
