The big difference is Elon thinks out of the box and is most likely way ahead of any thoughts/solutions this person could have. Personally, if it tanked, I doubt he would care as he is just sick of the BS like most are and Twitter drifting off into the sunset would be a good thing anyway.

All part of the "Situational Ethics" my father warned me to be aware of many, many decades ago.

I used to be able to understand the way others were thinking, even if I couldn't agree with them. I can't seem to do that anymore.

a = b
a^2 = ab
a^2-b^2 = ab-b^2
(a+b)(a-b) = b(a-b)
a+b = b
< but a=b is axiomatic, so >
a+a = a
2a = a
2 = 1

Yes, able to understand another's thinking even without agreement, it was different than your own but understandable. You can't do that anymore because it's not just different, it's alien.

You used to watch the news and get the facts and then made your opinion.

True in some cases, my HD iron head sportsters liked frequent oil changes, and would let me know when.

They (whoever "they" are?) say that we have a duplicate (looks exactly like we [us] do) in this world. Twins disregarded.

Ain't that scary?
