Sherrilyn IfillNEW posting on my newsletter “Is This America?” As Twitter enters its death spiral, I wanted to bring our attention back to why the sale of the platform to Musk never should have happened. https://sherrilyn.substack.com/p/on-twitters-end?utm_campaign=post
mark@ifilljustice Everyone laments the fate of twitter & titters over Elon's foolishness. But twitter is megaphone, now without constraints. At its helm Elon is leveled up from loose cannon to loose battleship. The metaphor works on a couple of levels: a battleship is a roving focus of power, instant totalitarian government, wherever it goes.
Did Elon buy it for the MONEY? More likely he said, "I can work that thing better than Trump. Just gotta not get kicked off."
We've got trouble.
