My girlfriend has a theory that he's trying to destroy the platform deliberately. I disagreed with her until he renamed it to X lol
I don’t think he meant to. He’s just an idiot.
Right wing control of Twitter was always my hypothesis, since, as people have pointed out, Twitter gave regular people access to people with influence. Destroying Twitter destroys that access, but it was more valuable as a tool to manufacture consent, like most media.
to right wingers, failure is good as success
think about it, trump is a godlike business man despite failing numerous times at all his businesses. he loses the election people still think he won. caught with nuclear codes giving them to enemy intelligence? it was probably a librul framing him.
if x goes under people will say it's part of musk's master plan
