Well Google and Meta aren't laying off 75%

Google has dozens of moonshots which add nothing to the bottom line, to say nothing of the software projects they launch all the time which people look at and go "it'll be dead in 6 weeks" (and they're right). Meta spent 10 billion dollars on Metaverse stuff no one uses. If Meta had done 0 Metaverse things, they would have lost no revenue, but would have 10 billion more dollars.

So those two have areas, probably entire departments, they can trim. By comparison, Twitter was all muscle.

Surely now we'll see a barrage of articles about how those respective CEOs are terrible, how they are associated with left-wing figures (as it is frequently pointed out that Musk is right-wing as a perjorative), sob stories of the laid off parties, journalist inquiries to their advertisers if they intend to halt ads (with the implication that they should), guides a on how to flee those services and providing free advertisement for their competitors, etc.
