Reply to comment by UnkindlyDisagree in Elon Musk says extending Twitter's character limit from 280 to 1,000 characters is on his to-do list by morenewsat11

This is nonsense the character limit has nothing to do with that. Twitter is, at its core, a shitposting site. That is it’s appeal

Literally the only politicians that even respond to twitter threads are the most pathetic and inconsequential of the group
