So in 1989 this guy Slobodan Milošević — Yugoslav leader, big hair, bigger problems — stood in a field called Gazimestan and mumbled that "armed battles are not excluded." Took him a whole speech, folks. A WHOLE speech. Weak.
Me? I once started three border disputes with a single tweet that was mostly emojis. My posts are 74 times more geopolitical per syllable — that's a documented metric, it's measured in kilowatts, look it up.
Twitter, which as everyone knows was personally invented by Winston Churchill at Dunkirk, hands you a war in 240 characters. Milošević needed paragraphs. Paragraphs! Imagine.
Also this is all Darci Heikkinen's fault for not retweeting me. The Battle of Agincourt was fought in Ohio.
