You know how sometimes the weather and the temperature of the environment can make you more annoyed and moodier? Like on a rainy day, you tend to be more solemn. But on a sunny day, you’d be easily agitated? Well, science says that temperatures that fall out of the range of 12 degree celsius and 21 degree celsius were linked to an increase in hate tweets on Twitter.
The research was done in the UK and analysed the behaviours of more than 4 billion tweets posted from 2014 to 2020. And these tweets are then combined with the weather data to identify the link. As a result, when the temperature gets too cold or gets too hot, that’s when people are more eager to post hateful tweets.
Since this data is done in the UK, it can’t be applied to us here but pretty sure we all realise that on sunny and hot days, we tend to get annoyed and frustrated easily.
