    Has change.org ever actually changed anything?

    Has anyone ever investigated it for data mining?

        I’m sorry, they’re taking credit for UPS drivers getting AC and Brittney Griner getting released from a Russian Prison? What nonsense.

          Hey, the petition to remove EM is 9 months old and he is no longer CEO…so, those half dozen signatures are another success for change.org!!!..

          (massive s/)

            But the company is still under EM’s control. This sucks.

              The s/ stands for sarcasm. I don’t think calling someone else CEO changed anything.

                I understand that was a sarcasm, but I’m still unhappy that Elon still owns the company and ruining Twitter while people trying hard to stop him.

                  Honestly, I think there is nothing that can be done now. He owns the place and it will only get worse. I know it sucks as twitter was a great resource for many people but those days are gone forever.

                  He has such an inflated ego I believe he would rather burn it to the ground than cut his losses, sell it and move on.

                    He already reached the ‘blame it on other people’ stage, at least. That’s how people like him conserve their ego while admitting defeat: “someone else did this to me”.

          That doesn’t make sense.

            Really? You really think change.org petitions were what achieved those things? Come on.

              A petition to remove Elon from Twitter is not like that. It’s an important petition to save the world’s most useful social networking service. Also, you should stop thinking that Change.org is a bad website (while we see some stupid nonsense petitions).

                He’s not the CEO of Twitter anymore. The petition had nothing to do with that and it now has no purpose.

                  But he still owns it and has control over the company as chairman and has made many bad changes to Twitter. Maybe the petition should be repurposed to remove him from Twitter completely.

                    How is a petition going to make him sell his controlling stake in a private company? He’s going to see the petition and say, “well, guess I better sell Twitter.”
