Then go work somewhere else. It's BS. It's entirely about political and ideological hate. Who do you think are you going to fool? Amazon poorly treeting warehouse workers and swe alikes didn't create nearly fraction as much hate and no one cried when Bezos was buying WaPo. Worst case Musk will run Twitter to the ground and people there will find work elsewhere. So why all the hate?

Because Bezos wasn't even remotely as attention seeking as Musk is. You're asking why someone seeking attention got attention. Which.. shouldn't really be surprising, should it?

Amazon gets a ton of criticism for how it treats warehouse, delivery, and tech employees, as well as how it mixes inventory and treats 3rd party vendors. You can't hardly have a thread here on HN without all these topics coming up. > no one cried when Bezos was buying WaPo. Bezos was buying WaPo. Most people couldn't tell you what's changed about the WaPo, many probably don't even know Bezos is the owner. There's certainly been nothing like the public and obvious turmoil going on at Twitter. And in spite of that, here are plenty of people who expressed concern about Bezos's ownership not only at time of purchase but on an ongoing basis.

No billionaire gets more hate than Jeff bezoz and Washington Post is not comparable to twitter. Almost everyone uses twitter, it getting bought is news enough but elon also hilariously mismanaged it during the first week. The hate is deserved and has nothing to do with his politics.

  > No billionaire gets more hate than Jeff bezoz Elon by a mile. I can't go an hour without seeing his smirk on some headline. I haven't seen or heard about Jeff Bezos but maybe once this month, and every month before that.

For all its many many flaws, I personally enjoyed Twitter, and it was useful to many people. It is irritating to see it ruined by an idiot billionaire.
