I was just explaning the concept of a "broke window falacy" (funilly enough without using the actual example that gave the name to it) and how work merelly being done is not a gain and can actually be a loss because of the opportunity cost (i.e. the people and the resources could otherwise have been used in something that actually produced something).

Also I was just thinking about the Musk-era Twitter rather than the entire Twitter timeline.
