Hot Topix: X Marks the Mess
In October 2022, Elon Musk spent $44 billion buying Twitter which he subsequently renamed "X". Musk's purchase of Twitter took almost a year as the drama played out in front of our eyes. Elon first went public in early 2022, ironically on Twitter with a public spat with founder Jack Dorsey over what her perceived as a lack of free speech on the platform. When Jack didn't take the bait, Musk upped the ante by declaring that if he couldn't get satisfaction, he would buy Twitter and do it himself.
This is our third podcast on the Twitter drama and given recent events on X, it might be our last as Musk's anti-semiticrants have driven adverstisers away in droves and revenue has tanked.
What are Elon's plans for X (formerly Twitter)? Does he even have a plan? Tune into this episode of The Decentralists to find out just how badly Elon could mess up X (formerly know as Twitter)
