moving the goalpost. twitter was originally developed to be a "news service" not a "social network"
I think he probably would have made it work. The death knoll was certainly changing the name to X.
Do a flip!
I said this in another post, but I think it bears repeating:
Musk, whether he was paid to do this or not, is acting purposefully. This is all a grand scheme to fully dismantle what was once our global town square. Twitter was once a place where “the people” could hold politicians, corporations, and the generally wealthy accountable for their actions publicly. In the past year, the platform has become unsteady, blue checks are untrustworthy, and even the name has changed to something that causes one to pause.
I dislike the man as much as the next normal person, but all of this nonsense has been planned from the start. He’s not a complete idiot. These actions have been calculated steps to take away the voice of the people and eliminate a single source of truth as things get worse and worse.
It was the circus, not "our global town square".
