I'm saying that right now, certain high-profile idiots are making it matter by definition. Once they stop using Twitter for that, then it'll stop mattering again.
Twitter isn’t the active ingredient.

The idiots aren't an active ingredient either. Russia and Iran could have used any puppets. These ones just happen to also twitch like a frog leg.
Turns out that when it comes to info quality is genuinely important, and I have no inclination to fish through raw sewage.
Before "truth social", Twitter was just often how those secondary sources would first hear of things to investigate. It's just one of the places where the shit would first come out. Hence "international politics is done via Twitter" not because it's good or proper to do so, but because that's simply what's been happening lately.
(Or at least, it heavily shapes the message).
