Elon Musk says Twitter will soon be renamed "X", an idea so bad even now few think he's serious

Why doesn’t he just jump ahead a little while (a couple weeks or a couple months max) and just use what the logo will be when Twitter’s lights get shut off for the last time:

Apparently he’s dreaming of being a poorly-written super-villain that controls the world through his “everything-app” named “X”.
He’s founded X holdings, X.com, X Corp, etc.
It’s Mr. Robot’s E-Corp (Evil Corp) but sadder

Is this what @beschizza is referring to?

On the first day of the sentencing phase of his trial, Manson appeared in the courtroom with a bloody X carved into his forehead […]. Manson submitted a statement to the court explaining that the carving symbolized that he had been “Xed out of society.”

Manson would later turn his X into a swastika

and his communication company can be “ComplX” (or Cotex?), his neural electronic telepathy company “Telex” (ok… CortX is right there…), his tunneling company “Texmex”… the overall holding company “Ex-ex”, so that when he fucks up all of it he can be “Ex-ex-ex” which you know his 9 year old brain is playing 5d chess to triangulate on right now…

It’s really astonishing how incompetent, out of touch, and stupid Musk is.

Toxic narcissism is hell of a self-destructive trip. Too bad his self-ruination is bringing plenty of harm to other people as well.

Figures. Instead of a bird making Tweets, a Poop emoji signifying posts known as unfiltered Xcrement.

He’s so disappointed the Russians appropriated ‘Z’.

‘We’ve already started to see X take shape over the past 8 months through our rapid feature launches’

You know - features like the site falling over on a regular basis, not being able to tweet and of course - free Nazis with every interaction.

This twitter is no more! It has ceased to be! This is an X twitter.

See, when you have a massively well-known brand which has become practically synonymous with your market niche to the point where all your direct competitors are referred to as “[your brand]-likes” and “[your brand] clones”, the thing to do is to just drop your brand. The reason why this strategy is not taught in business and marketing schools is because only a true self-made billionaire genius can come up with it.

(On a whiteboard somewhere in ex-Twitter HQ: “step 2: ??? step 3: profit”)

This made me almost tearful at how pathetic he is. We’re reaching the stage, in Musk’s battle with dignity, where dignity’s friends are like “stop dude… he’s already dead”.

Same with Google and ‘Alphabet’. You only change the core name if the brand has become irreparable, and even Facebook isn’t that far gone. And Twitter isn’t even close to that (despite the last year or so.)
