English-language Twitter has always had a huge amount of inflammatory political commentary. I gave up on the platform for many years because I couldn't follow artists, film directors, or engineers without seeing their political opinions plastered all over my feed and I found it distracting and obnoxious. As others have pointed out, you're looking at the comment section of an account that posts political satire.
What do you mean by "these types of political statements"? Right-wing ones?

Which account is political satire? The Babylon Bee or Elon Musk’s personal account? I kid.

I intentionally didn’t label it. Where on the spectrum does a statement like “women can’t run companies” lie? To me, the issue isn’t political. It’s that people whose entire identity is founded upon fighting a culture war seem to be the loudest voices on Twitter. It makes the product very unpleasant.
> The 5th reply tags a number of republican politicians and was posted by someone whose Twitter tagline is simply "Patriot".
Which is labeled and is not particularly egregious, so that weakens your point.
I don't recall comment sections of popular or political accounts ever being respectful or interesting. But in some cases, the bots that used to plague every popular account's comments do seem preferable to that kind of stuff.
