Musk is undeniably just trying to run twitter into the ground at this point.

Somehow I doubt it's even that. The guy's just a braindead, incompetent moron. I don't think the fucker's even smart enough to realize this is literally the worst possible decision he could've made.

Yeah Occam's Razor and all that, he's probably just a fucking idiot.

Funny enough, it's actually Hanlon's razor.

Seems naive to prioritize stupidity over malice when trying to make sense out of the actions of businessmen and politicians, but Elon has shown a penchant for stupidity lately.

For the last eight years or so, my response to any invocation of Hanlon’s razor has always been, ¿por qué no los dos?

True. Malice and idiocy aren't mutually exclusive, but you tell me what REPEATEDLY lighting $44B on fire is more likely to be.

im pretty certain he is being paid by the saudis to destroy twitter. it's way too powerful a vehicle to be in the hands of the proletariat.

this might sound crazy but ..... this is why kbin/lemmy etc is so important. in about 2 years+ time, there will be a gigantic global civil war as the masses rise up and seek to annihilate the billionaires. the billionaires will hide behind the use of nukes by russia, then china invades taiwan, then WW3, then Biden is cloned, Covid26 arrives, global tsunamis and geostorms, and then the aliens invade. It's all pretty much clear. we need to organise now, to just give 0.5% of our kids a miniscule chance to survive the coming extinction of humanity.
