of double and triple digit growth. Musk is simply not on the same wavelength as neurotypical people, and I'm afraid that means you, Senator Warren I'm afraid we're all going to have to wait and see what he does with it.

He's rich enough to have bought it simply to shut it down as a menace to civility, if not democracy, itself. If so, Farcebook is next.

I thought it was a shite platform so I never used it. I'll be fascinated to see what happens next.
