You could also say your attention span in real life overrepresents people who talk your ear off about Joe Biden at the checkout line or protest on the road. Maybe it's not really so different.

Protesting on the road takes time and effort.

Tweeting merely requires a toilet break at work.

Once I started viewing all online media as the equivalent of the graffiti on toilet stalls the world started making sense again.

Except that it doesn't, at least not on the same scale.

If people start talking all the time in real life people will first start ignoring them, and then isolate them.
