At some point during the Covid pandemic, Paul Graham said something to the effect of, the pandemic has accelerated how quickly and often people are proven wrong. Twitter situation is similar. Until very recently, PG himself and a lot of other seemingly smart people backed Elon Musk. Elon was given a pass for, among other things, smoking weed on camera, claiming Covid panic was dumb, Covid will be over in months, using subsides, manipulating stock and crypto prices, pedo guy comment, labor suppression in his companies etc. and the list goes on. After all of that, it is sharing social links on Twitter that breaks the camels back. It is at the same time kinda hilarious and also puts the smartness of those who backed Elon into question.
