X (Twitter) to soon begin charging $1 annual subscription in order to tweet and interact.
Next move must be to charge users deleting their accounts $1. And Elon can sell your data to make more money.

Are we sure this man understands business?
He purposefully is destroying it to prevent the poor from organizing.
We can just organize on open platforms like mastodon instead!
Yeah we're fucked lol
You are overselling Twitter if you think Twitter can do that.
I mean, idk how it is after the musk take over but twitter used to be a legitimate tool for political organizing. Iirc they used it a lot during the Hong Kong protests and it was a driving factor during the Arab spring. Free communication for the masses helps in these situations, especially in an otherwise state controlled media environment.
twitter is/was not doing that on purpose but twitter had been used for political organizing and quick news spreading during mass protests in multiple countries. There are cases that it was the main means of communication of the people protesting bypassing censorship or downplay of the local news agencies.
What's stopping him from just pulling the plug if that's his goal?
He lost so much money, and he is badly in debt. His wealth is still on bloated Tesla stock, which he cannot sell without destroying the company value. Business genius.
A lot of us are sure that he doesn't. He is a very skilled con man though.
Im fairly sure hes intentionally destroying twitter
Well he has millions of sycophants that would fucking kill someone of Elon asked them too.
It's the exact same gift Trump has been pulling off, except instead on constantly begging for donation, hes just "selling" features on twitter.
