Welcome to the MDS, son..

Well you hated him from the start and barely gave him a chance, unlike me.

He just seems to be somewhat lacking in providing overall strategic direction to Twitter and makes completely random decisions whenever he feels like it, with little confidence that there is any plan that he is following...

He went from ingroup to outgroup when he dared to touch Twitter. Quite sad really.

We were right about everything. Cope.

He has a plan, and it's to pander to the far right. Everything he's done has been in service of that. It's just terrible business to alienate more than half the userbase of your platform, not to mention the people who buy your overpriced electric cars.

Hahaaha you disprove your first claim immediately in the second sentence. Truly a wonderous achievement!

Sorry , but there is very little, if any, you were right bout w.r.t. Twitter.
He didn't alienate more than half the userbase, only some unhinged people. And as the poll showed they are still very much active on Twitter.

And yet, he failed so hard that he's stepping down in less than 2 months after taking over. So....

He failed? He already cut out the majority of the cancer that had infected Twitter. So...

The vitriol by the unhinged was truly astonishing. Great that so many people and outlets outed themselves for perpetuating it and thereby lose their credibility.
This will have lasting repercussions for many. On a whole I'd say all of this is beneficial for the future.

Yeah he failed harder than anyone could have even predicted and you're huffing some serious copium to turn it into anything but a failure.

Yes dear, that's what a prediction is. And it wasn't difficult to predict, based on his past behaviour.

Unless you're a Tim Pool type, of course.

Yes, again, like a lot of people predicted. Who would have thought a narcissist with no history of social media platform management would act like this? He's the dog that caught his own tail.

You mean he actually succeeded. Twitter is fixed. If he can get a competent CEO to take over then he was completely successful. That's the most difficult part
