Why did he buy Twitter if, as he says, it's close to collapse?

Who cares, let that hellsite disintegrate. It does nothing for discourse of any kind.

Looks like it will join Facebook. How heavy has that site has fallen from what it used to be. Hardly anyone on it.

I detest FarceBook so I will probably just delete Twitter if that happens

Ironically in hindsight they weren't so silly.

I love the "Ted Cruz & Ben Shapiro" chat.

Admittedly I do think the trolling is going too far when people are faking things to do with medication, that's a boundary that shouldn't be crossed imo.

You're generally right, but you miss the point of this. That company massively overprices life saving insulin, so they've tanked their share price.

Tbh I actually didn't know they did that.

That's an awful practice imo.

The overpricing Insulin part that is.

I do hope that the one good thing about Twitter getting destroyed, and Facebook losing popularity is that Forums will re-emerge in popularity again.

Imo Forums teach people to have a thick skin, and to be more accepting of different opinions to your own.

Now I'm not saying that everyone on Twitter and Facebook are bad people, but unfortunately the way those sites work encourages people to be in their own safe space, which imo isn't a good thing.

i think twitter is a dead man walking now, it's not if, but when it goes bankrupt. It's what happens when an arrogant narcissist buys it and destroys it in a week

Yes !!

I hope that forums do indeed make a bit of a comeback .. it’s crazy how many once fabulous forums / online communities have collapsed and died
