      We are just spectators at one of the worst wastes of private funds the world has ever seen.

      It honestly feels like Elon is holding a bet with someone as to how quickly one can destroy $40 billion in value. How many times in history has someone bought a brand with as much recognition as Twitter and then proceeded to try and rename it?

        Carnegie steel was bought and renamed to US steel. That was fairly successful. The only reason I know that is because Wikipedia is the few websites unblocked at work and this week i was reading about famous people between 1850-1900

          What an excellent random fact at he right time.

          You play the Wikipedia game? That’s fun for about 10 minutes. Where you try to get from one random page to another only clicking links and do it as few as possible.

            Yeah it was fun, but I found myself getting too into it instead of remaining alert/aware/alive at work

      You don’t care that one of the few free ways oppressed people can openly share ideas is being squashed? Of course

        The internet seems to be dying across the board but anyone is allowed to host a discussion site

      Thank god we’ve got people like you to incessantly whine about it and show how little they care by commenting about how they don’t care.

      Not at all more obnoxious than the original post.
