It’s been called “a graveyard of bullies” by Chetan Bhagat. American talk show host and political humorist Bill Maher often describes tweets as brain farts. Lamenting his deteriorating Twitter experience, Pritish Nandy writes, “The virtual worlds we build are eventually becoming an exact replica of our own dystopian society.” All of that is real and it is what makes Twitter a complete experience. And since it’s the season of making unwise predictions, let me be audacious too: Twitter will not die. It will be the path to survival for the human race. It will remain a significant influencer of politics, culture and human behaviour for a long time. It will evolve or mutate, just as the human species does, and it will be the barometer of our evolution or our decay. This is why it is important.
