What the fuck did Elon buy, at this point?
He fired the employees.
He threw out the code.
He yanked plugs on the physical servers.
He forgot to pay for the virtual servers.
He started rent protest for the office space.
He deleted the brand the way Malcolm X deleted his surname.
If he’d just started a Twitter competitor, with blackjack and doxxing, the only difference would be that Twitter was a bit quieter.
If he’d bought Twitter, the hellsite, and then burned it to the ground as a weird flex, the only difference would be slightly more people using Mastodon.
And in both cases nobody would know he’s a complete crybaby. We’d just harbor strong suspicions.
Basically Elon wants to clone WeChat, Chinas all in one app. He could have started from scratch and had an uphill battle with Twitter as the largest competing company or do this instead.
His PR was already getting shitty before buying Twitter, so he pivoted with his rich boy money like always.
He purchased it , destroying it as a competitor for his X website. He gave X recognition immediately as a platform, and hoping that he retains the partial user base of Twitter as the initial backbone for the app he wanted to build in the first place.
Because that’s what fascists do, delete competition
But he could have done that without being a complete idiot and not scare away users like myself. Not very smart, is he?
That’s not facism, that’s just regular ol’ capitalism 👍

Should also start calling tweets: X’cretions.
Twitter Feed: X’crement feed
Their public relations is pretty much a poop emoji already.
I know you know, but I have to point out: their public relations is literally a poop emoji. Which is possibly the most juvenile proof imaginable for the failure of Elmo’s delusions of adequacy. He just has a lot of money.
For twitter feed just keep it simple: X’cretion pile
Why are people still on Twitter? I deleted my account years ago.
I just used it to read, but I deleted a few weeks ago, don’t miss it.
Honestly, there’s a nice community of people advocating for a better city in my area, and I enjoy the “circlejerk” of agreeing with them and see their stuff. And want it or not, lots of officials and cities still have accounts there. It’s easy to “Xcrete” about a shitty bike path to your local neighborhood mayor and include the right people to make it a bit more noticeable.
I’m gonna pronounce Xitter ‘shitter’.
I prefer to call it Xhitter, since it’s so extra xhitty now.
Xhitler?
Oh. Damn. 😂🤣
“Twitter is horrible! For fascists!”
