@andybudd Sorry I didn't add a smiley.

I'm only disappointed that people genuinely think my fully-considered and serious opinion on a complex topic is fully encapsulated in a single brief tweet in which I call people "dumbos".

I always forget that so many people use Twitter for Serious Bizniz and Meaningful Discussion rather than stupid chat. Weird.

Sorry for not being clear in the previous tweet: it was more of a comment than a question and I REALLY don't care about your contrary opinions.

@andybudd I don't really follow them; I've muted anyone I follow who posts long threads because they clog up my feed.

@andybudd You don't say.

@andybudd I'm sorry that some people can't be arsed to edit their Very Important Thoughts into a coherent piece of text.

@Ralosnom Maybe write a blog post that's interesting enough that people want to read it.

If the replies to your Thought Leader tweet thread are full of "threadreaderapp unroll", maybe you should have written a blog post you dumbo.

@philgyford Stupid chat FTW.

Please enjoy these ducks changing their minds.
