Twirony (Twitter Irony)....the practice of communicating with a blend of irony and sincerity on social media.

It fails to express clear thoughts and feelings. It is often designed to hurt someone's feelings and belittle/humiliate them. It serves to reduce someone's personal responsibility for what they are saying by dulling the meaning with mock-sincerity.
