    Twitter no longer has a media relations department. The company responded to a request for comment with a poop emoji.

        He’s been doing this for a while now. He fired the entire PR department and set it to respond with poop emojis and every article editor that’s reached out for a comment has had this as their reply.

        He’s a man-child. And one of the most powerful and influential people on earth.

        This is far from ok. ☹️

        But so it goes…

          Look no further than his “zuck is a cuck” comment. I’ve encountered salty gamers with more emotional maturity than him.

        It’s just news. And nowadays this just means it’s panic and excessive exaggeration and a pinch of populism.

        Since the company is now in private hands of only one person, there is no need to paint a picture for the public. And with the efforts of making it more economical, there are of course hurdles to overcome.

        But overall most decisions were reasonable. The provider change and the change to the financial model were reasonable and will eventually lead to more profits, also with a smaller team behind the platform.

        Many here want to see the company fall, just because a person is bought it that’ll whom they despise. That’s just childish.

        The only bad decision on musks way so far was buying twitter for simply too much. And the second worst decision was shooting a shitty car into space. Now the aliens will believe us to have no standards.
