Find the value of X. nerd

The number of monthly users of X dropped by 15% in the first year since Musk’s takeover amid concerns over a rise in hate speech on the platform.

It really is slowly dying.

Should've given Twitter to Grimes.

    Sure, but that'd almost definitely be a trojan horse for Peter Thiel and his League of Impossible Ideologies (aka troll armies). Instead of obviously brainless bots and equally stupid Tech influencers, we'd have explicitly tailored social engineering ops. Think more "anarchist hacker catgirl" types who go viral just to stage a total breakdown and blow up your scene w insipid drama. Worst of all, they'd mostly be friends of Grimes. As if discourse wasn't already rigged enough.
