'We All Should Be Grateful That X Is Owned by Musk'– Bill Ackman

It astounds me that so many rich people seem to think that they have a right to other people's money; that someone choosing not to do business with them is akin to a moral offense.

I was hoping that this article would argue that Elon's destruction of Twitter would be good for society, that better alternatives will come from the ashes

instead an investor being a stochastic parrot

boycotts are a thing man

What was the alternative? Twitter lost money from the start and it seemed like they had no plan on how to be profitable. If Musk had not bought it, I bet it would have been bought to be sold for parts and slowly disappeared as the parts were sold. It wouldn't have surprised me that the alternative owners would have done anything to produce a profit. Musk is a problem but at least he does not have to do ANY thing to it so it produces a profit. The problem is that we, the whole world, have a hard time getting along. Hopefully, if X survives we can use it to find a middle ground were we all can at least tolerate each other.

Getting rid of Twitter does nothing. Microblogging is a fundamental function of the web. It will reappear and reappear if it's destroyed but there's no guarantee that it will be any better.
