Depressing, incomprehensible, and reprehensible. He gets boatloads of government subsidies and still manages to keep enough cynicism in his heart to block government agencies with no agenda other than saving lives.
- mindslight 3y agoCalling it cynicism is generous - rather it's abject stupidity. Posters did the work that made the platform valuable, for free, often to the exclusion of posting the data elsewhere. Journalists were basically giving away their own product for free (or at least the part of their product that people want). Why would you want to disrupt any of them? Each content creator that stops or adopts alternatives makes Twitter just a little less valuable. Musk is basically doing a case study in how to degrow a social media company.
