Imagine spending 40 billion dollars on one of the most recognizable brands in history, so deeply embedded in the public consciousness that any other company would throw virgins into a volcano for a chance at that level of recognition, just to replace all of that branding with your own little name that everyone has been telling you sounds stupid for the last 25 years
Welcome to the mind of a narcissist.
Dude thinks the cyber truck is cool, and not the dumbest fucking vehicle ever.
i think that gives him too much credit. he’s just fucking dumb and bad at everything. he failed upwards so long because he wasn’t too visible in the public eye. now he’s terminally online and constantly embarrassing himself and his companies.
Yes, because that’s what happens when a narcissist has way too much money. A person capable of self-reflection would realize that it’s much easier and safer to trust people around you that know more about their respective areas of expertise. That’s what good leaders do, they delegate. Musk is incapable of that. The companies he owns are not yet bankrupt despite, not because, of him.
IMHO it was more about preventing more social justice movements akin to #metoo
It’s so much so that every news article that quotes it still says “X, formerly Twitter”.
That’s because X means absolutely nothing. It’s a letter commonly used to fill in blanks. It’s an awful name for any company/brand.

I’ve seen and prefer “Twitter, now X”.
Yes, I mean how many companies get their brand turned into a verb?
It’s like someone buying Kleenex and going “Nope, it’s called K now.”
At least K has something to do with Kleenex. It’s more like buying Coca-Cola and changing it to J
I heard that he also moved the CDN for user-uploaded videos to xvideos.com
Not all of them. The cute ones are on xhamster.com
His newest social media venture is focused on a niche of extreme exploration, named the Xtreme Network for Xtraordinary Xploration. You can find it at xnxx.com.
Elmo thinks the “X” makes it “extra cool.”
I don’t care, that sycophant can fuck himself.
Still Twitter to me.
When the business fails and is eventually sold again, it will be changed back to Twitter.
Then again perhaps he won’t ever sell it unless he goes completely broke. Just prolonging the damage he does to society as long as he possibly can.
If he’s spent $44 Billion on it, you can rest assure he’s not letting it go that easily unless he sees more than half of that come back from a buyer. And the only way he’ll see that money is if Apple or Microsoft will bother with it, which they won’t.
It wasn’t his money.
We’ll definitely start calling it X now, definitely.
We should!
Stop humouring the assholes that are still on that bigoted network.
Every time someone calls it twitter, don’t give them the satisfaction of disassociating themselves from Musky’s X.
Oh so you’re an X’er. You like to Xeet a lot eh?
It’s called xitter, and it’s full of xit(s).
Let’s call people who grow up with X the “X gen”.
This is pretty funny actually, I’ll start doing this 😅
I’m personally a fan of his new site for twitter media: xvideos.
You guys are joking but Elon is going to ruin porn sites next. Let’s see who has the last laugh then.
The only way he could ruin porn sites was if the site’s content were replaced with only videos of Elon gyrating his hips to Eye of the Tiger, while wearing one of those Borat bathing suits, never breaking eye contact with the camera.
I’ll give him credit on this: It’s not dead yet. I’m genuinely surprised about that.
Not for lack of trying from his part.
He’s doing his level best to kill it.
Now how’s Robotnik supposed to tell us if Shadow pissed on his wife without twitter.com
He’ll do it on truth social.
This dude is high.
What a pitiful community this is.
Stop posting about Twitter
this isnt relevant to technology
Is this some type of advanced haiku
On technology
Twitter trash served yet again
A protest rageku
