So long as there is a demand for microblogging, there will be a Twitter. The only thing that will come from Musk running Twitter into the ground is motivate the apolitical majority that makes up the bulk of all Social Media platforms to move on to another platform. This group is the lifeblood of any social media platform, as it is the one driving most of the engagement. (It was the failure to capture this group that led to the death or irrelevance of early right-wing social media alternatives like Voat, Gab, Ruqqus, etc.) But it takes quite a bit to move this group, since it doesn't tend to keep up-to-date on politics. It takes a major change that affects most people viscerally to get this group to migrate from one platform to another. (Tumblr's ban on pornographic material was one such change.) Leftists look forward to Musk making enough bad decisions that the average user becomes inclined to believe the premanufactured MSM narrative that Twitter is dying, as it will lead this majority to move on to another microblogging platform just like Twitter, only with a different name, but (statistically likely) run by yet another group of Silicon Valley-types. If Twitter dies, Musk will have lost $44 billion and the name of the platform will have changed, and everything else will be back to how it was when Gadde and co. ran things.
