It was clear from the jump Musk didn’t understand the site he’d bought, but I’m still a bit surprised he doesn’t grasp that journalists are the main reason Twitter was more relevant than any number of other similar platforms. Can easily imagine looking back on this as a tipping point.
@normative There's a saying with people who play MMORPGs - if you aggro (anger) one bear, you aggro all bears. Journalists tend to stick together, even if they disagree on some things. This will not end well for Musk - and this is likely to be remembered as something like a Thursday Night Massacre. And will probably go about as well as that Nixon's Friday version did...
@[email protected] Slightly worried that even with a decade-old profile pic I look so elderly I need “aggro” explained. ;)
@normative Touche! I do tend to err on the side of clarity, though. :)
