Musk's changes kill service that let you view tweets without going to Twitter.

    That’s not winning a war…that’s isolating your garbage company further.

      Apparently he just bought and trashed Twitter because that kid was tracking his plane

            If you believe this then you’d believe in almost anything.

            Scapegoat excuse. Why would he admit that it was to destroy class awareness and cohesion, when he could simply blame a kid?

        Would Swift be the next owner of Twitter then?

            I mean, neither was he, and given that the Saudis bankrolled his purchase and he’s apparently reduced the value of their investment by half, you have to wonder what he’s giving them that has saved him from a one-way trip to a Saudi consulate.

            I mean, you don’t really have to wonder that hard. But still, somebody loses you multiple billions in an extended ketamine-fueled rampage, you start to wonder if you should make an example of them…

              Why do people try to pretend Elon Musk isn’t insanely rich? His net worth can easily be leveraged into 40 billion dollars.
