    Apparently this is all part of some grand master plan. Maybe Elon will pull it off???

      I can’t fathom that anybody could be this stupid. Does he have a reason to purposely destroy Twitter?

      The decisions he’s making aren’t just bad, they’re the worst possible ones that he could make. As in, he gathered a group of experts and these are the best ways to destroy Twitter that they could think up.

        Some people are suggesting he ran up so much debt buying Twitter that he’s now running it into the ground in order to declare bankruptcy and not have to repay the debt. I don’t know how plausible this is.
