You can polish a turd, but at the end of the day it'll just be shiny shit.
Rebranding won't save the sinking ship that is Twitter. Making it a better platform might actually save it, but Musk is not interested in that, he just wants to make money.
The way Musk is leading Twitter he's either a moron or trying to destroy the entire service.
Maybe someone called him a slur in a tweet and now he wants to remove the entire platform? Who knows. Though we was mostly the guy calling others pedos..
He paid $21 billion of his own money for it. That was like 10% of his wealth at the time. It also had a negative effect on Tesla's stock price. He lost a lot of wealth because of this.
I think it is more likely that he did not intend to purchase it and was initially just trolling. But someone filed the legal paperwork and he had to go through with it.
Why not both?
why not? totally worked for ~~facebook~~ meta.
