As more and more articles and interviews come out about spez and how he’s inspired by how Musk running Twitter, I genuinely can’t believe he’s this stupid. Anyone else think that we could see a repeat of what happened with Ellen Pao when all the gate subreddits were banned? All of these quotes from Spez are coming out, and the hate over the changes is directed at him, and blamed on him almost more than on all the admins, or the board. “Fuck spez” has become the slogan for opposing the changes at this point.

I won’t be surprised if the board removes him at the 11th hour, and reduces the api costs to a level that the biggest apps (Apollo, RIF) will be able to keep operating, but may not allow for new apps to compete.

Anyone else think we could see it blow over like this?

    I didn’t think Musk could be this stupid either though. I keep trying to find ways that he’s playing 4D chess, but come up empty handed each time.

      I half believe that he’s a time traveler and has seen the future. In that future, Twitter lead to significant damage to human population as a whole, and that the only way Elon can save the future is by destroying Twitter and driving it into the ground until it becomes 4chan 2.0
