    It’s actually a huge feat to kill such a huge company that had so much momentum. Kudos to him. At this point he could make a business out of ruining things. Pay him to endorse a company if you want to tarnish its reputation.

        Not the first time I heard that. Met a hardcore Elonstan who defended he’s a genius, and that he was trying to take twitter down to profit off of insurance money.

          Yikes. Yeah no. Best id guess is maybe foreign money hoping to tank a liberal platform… But I’m not married to that conspiracy. It assumes he’s smarter than he seems.

            foreign money hoping to tank a liberal platform.

            Since when was twitter a “liberal platform”?

            The rightwingnuts have been running rampant over there for as long as I can remember.

              Twitter was very diverse. You could see just what you wanted to see. My twitter was very liberal and tech oriented. But now everyone left.

                That’s not my experience. I never wanted to see rightwing conspiracy crap, but I wasn’t able to avoid it crowding my feed until I avoided Twitter entirely.
