Alcohol disinhibits and makes people show sides they usually suppress. He probably has pent-up anger and let it all out in that tweet. I guess he's neither fully the person you know nor the person from that tweet, but both are part of the "real him"

I always judged people based on how they act when drunk. Always stick with people who are happy drunk never angry/violent drunk

Me too! I can't say I really know who someone is unless I've seen them drunk, experience heaven, or experience hell.

All of those things tend to reveal truths about ourselves that we normally don't expose.
