Twitter Is Wrecking the Musk Aura That Fueled Tesla
- chiefalchemist 4y agoThe caption on the photo says it all: "Musk’s missteps at Twitter are playing out in public view." The old way of thinking, the old paradigm looks down on "misteps." That's not how Musk and his ilk operate. They're comfortable with authenticity (if you will). Mind you, HN knows this. But the rest of the world is still stuck in the past (esp. The Media). As it is, "Musk" in a headline is the clickbait-y word of the momemt. The (shameless) Media will say anything if it gets clicks and plays to the conventional narrative (i.e., take him down and pray he fails). They see themselves as gods. For what it's worth, I once heard Mark Cuban say he often goes to Twitter to vet ideas. That the Twitter feedback loop is efficient and effective. Now perhaps the new owner is taking his new toy to a whole new level? We'll see. No one can see into the future. We can say that Musk has placed bets in to past and has done well for himself. I'm not defending him. Only that he's a big boy, with a proven track record and I for one am wise enough to wait a couple more months before I start making judgements about his "missteps".
