Is perhaps the sweet day coming when people's very thoughts and identities are no longer prefaced by @s and #s?
No...the world couldnt withstand anything of that magnitude. Society would crumble in upon itself under the weight of the hashtags.

Musk is trying to kill Twitter actually! Playing 4D chess. Checkmate everyone!
This is crazy though, I’ve never seen someone torch so much money and wealth so badly. Crazy.

All it takes is 44 billion worth of autistic man-child hilarity. He is brilliant to be sure but he's becoming more unhinged by the day. Half the time I feel like his tweets are from fake accounts and I have to double take
I wonder how many people think this is going as planned and he's playing the long game here? Fascinating and scary LOL
Dude just does stuff to satisfy his ego and doesn't care what happens next. I would call it cartoon super villainy but it's more like if a random drunk 12 year old had billions of dollars and a God complex

Was it Truth Social or Parler that wanted to compete against Twitter after Trump was banned? I think it was Parler? Maybe Musk is trying to do Kanye a solid by killing Twitter? Candice Owens' husband is the current owner of Parler and apparently, Candice Owens has convinced Kanye to buy Parler in a deal that allows her husband to keep the valuable parts while Kanye buys the rest to be owner. Most are assuming that Candice Owens was just taking advantage of her "friend" Kanye who hasn't seemed right for the last while.

I would imagine they are already moving, no legitimate company or new org will want anything to do with a porn site, the real question is how long it takes for an underage content provider to end up on there and Musk gets sued for purveying kiddie porn

I’ve seen thousands of users fleeing Twitter. Many advertisers are cancelling, too. I’d say yes.
