You are using Twitter/Internet as a base, and well the internet, and especially twitter has so many ignorant judgemental people so it's not really surprising to find people tweet things like that. But yeah heightism is definitely a thing, as a 5'9 male I've experienced it first hand and had insecurities about it growing up from friends, women, etc. Some people get over it, and for some it gives them a huge chip on their shoulder where you can't even hint at them being short without them snapping at you.
Fortunately, I don't really care anymore. Being quick witted and laid back helps for sure. But it goes both ways. Hell, I know certain women who hate tall men, finds them creepy she said, everyone has different opinions/tastes on literally everything.
