Twitter's demographics probably show the highest usage among people 15 to 18. In their IQ.
They like it that way. Twitter does. As do the witless time-wasters who haunt it every day seeking for some topic — ANY topic — for their "This is ME" reaction meme. Like THIS one. Apparently this is a white teenager who grabbed a meme of a black guy making a face.
Subject? Rita Wilson (wife of Tom Hanks, but she'd be happy if you said she's a singer) posted something or other about her coping with covid-19, aka coronavirus, aka Wuhan Flu, aka Batshit Blight:
If it was a REAL black woman (aka "woman of color" but not "colored woman," aka African-American) she would've used the same animated GIF but prefaced it with "Y'ALL." That term has made a remarkable comeback from its low toilet seat as a term with a whiff of racism to it, and just a hint of utter stupidity and love of anything that sounds impudently ignorant.
What IS the point of Twitter these days? Is it only someplace for morons to blabber? Like Trump?
The only somewhat intelligent people who seem to get a kick out of it are Piers Morgan and John Cleese, who can't wait for some troll to say something insulting so they can top them. You'd think Piers and John would have something better to do, if only to lessen the amount of money Twitter is making off them.
Or to put it in the Twitter way: PIERS AND JOHN, y'all got something better 4-UR-selves 2 do? Here's ME when I see you responding to some asshole on Twitter!
