    why does his comment have 40,000 likes.

    The amount of simps for Elon dump is ridiculous.

      Twitter is also a huge bot farm so I think it’s safe to say that at least half of those likes aren’t real.

        I mean they’re just some number in a database Elon owns. Would anyone be surprised if we find out he inflates his numbers?

          When he took over twitter, he was mad that others got more likes and shares than him. They changed something and puff, he was the most popular person to the point where they broke twitter. He was (is?) also in everyone’s feed - following him or not.

            He’s never in my feed so at least that’s clearly false

              Okay, I’m just referring to the book about the take over I read. Lots of people complained about him showing up without following him.
