As Twitter destroys its brand by renaming itself X, Mastodon user numbers are again soaring | TechCrunch - Lemmy.world

It’s not just lemmy that’s benefiting from Elon Musk.

He has so thoroughly ruined Twitter that you can’t help but wonder if that was his goal from the outset.
Narcissists like him would never seek failure intentionally.
You’ve obviously never played a board game with a narcissist. Flipping over the table and calling everyone, including the game they themselves purchased, cheaters is a totally expected move.
They’re not doing that to lose. They’re doing that because they already lost.
You’re not wrong but he bought it at an extremely overpriced amount so he did already kind of lose.

I GUESS YOU’RE RIGHT, LIKE YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO BE!

Fucking cheaters

Musk ‘lost’ when he had to spend the $44 billion. I can totally believe that he’s burning Twitter out of spite from having to buy it.
That is quite fitting
It’s just like Michael from The Office. You see he isn’t doing things on purpose to sabotage everyone, but he can’t control itself, he needs the attention and the self worship.
Thanks for this analogy, it’s going to help me see the world in a funnier light. It’s still fucked, but at least I can get a chuckle every now and then.
