My point is, look I'm a dumb white hick. I've never ran anything as significant as this. Just from the way the guy talks I can tell he has eons more experience than I do. His track record? Jesus Christ.

Still, if I were him I would've just.. stopped. Long, long ago.

Yet he hasn't. Admittedly, I'm a dumb fuck yet smart cookie compared to some but honestly what are the odds that with zero experience I could make better business decisions than this guy?

Make it make sense, ya know? Explain to me like I'm 5 why he would make decisions that are so obviously detrimental to the company? What are the odds that I could give better business advice than this guy?

Yet this is what he's doing. He's either purposely destroying it or has some weird master plan and I'm not sure I can be convinced otherwise tbh. We all see it, as bad as he seems to be there's no way he doesn't.

Honestly I feel like that killed Twitter more than many other changes.

People tell me "there's no way he (musk) would intentionally crash his own company - it makes no sense - "he's just terribly bad at business!"

But is he really THAT bad? In what world could these changes be made in which he's actively trying to improve the company? If nothing else, seeing the negative backlash, bad publicity and dropping number of users wouldn't any sound minded business owner at least temporarily undo some of these changes?

With any business, if you make a change that causes you to lose customers and get bad publicity.. don't you try to mitigate the damage done? Who goes balls to the wall on obviously bad decisions?

Oh no.. I'm not on here often but noticed this comment section felt like "home" for some reason..

Ah, yes, in my rural area that would mean walking or biking 200+ miles per day just for work and even if I was capable of that it doesn't solve the problem of not being able to bring my tools so I can work which weigh hundreds if not a thousand pounds.

And there aren't buses around here, not that it would solve the problem of getting my tools around. I'm all for saving the environment and establishing smaller, walkable cities but it doesn't negate the need for automobiles - yet.
