    Elon is either severely mentally handicapped or killing Twitter has been the objective.

      He’s an incredibly impulsive malignant narcissist demanding sweeping changes without considering whether they’re feasible, amongst other ways by reacting to criticism in real time and often in the stupidest ways possible.

      He’s not technically handicapped, but he has the emotional maturity and judgement of a toddler who’s overdue for a nap.

          killing twitter is the goal

          Please explain the following:

          1. Why is killing Twitter worth half of his entire fortune?
          2. Why would he attach the X brand to it, something that has been his personal obsession throughout his life, if the goal was to kill it?
          3. Why isn’t it dead yet? He owns Twitter outright. He’s not the CEO. He’s not a major shareholder. He’s the owner. Full stop. If the goal was to kill it, he could fire everyone, shut the doors and turn off the lights. So why hasn’t he?

            he could fire everyone, shut the doors and turn off the lights.

            Can he? Genuine question, since I’d be interested to know if he’d be subject to litigation from the shareholders

              By this person’s logic, Musk was willing to tank 200bn of his net worth to kill twitter. Why would he give a single flying shit about a lawsuit or four? At best he’d owe them back the value of their investment, which is apparently, according to the insane logic of the “He’s deliberately killing twitter” crowd, small change to see a single social media site dead.
