It completely undermines the reason for Twitter's success. It's a comparatively small social network, but because it is public it has been used by politicians, journalists, businesses, governmental organisations, etc. for serious announcements. The moment it is gated, it's value for doing that craters. This was already sharply worsened by the blue-tick fiasco.
Elon doesn't understand what he bought.

Android twitter is working fine but can't get anything on the web browser with Something went wrong. Try reloading.

445m people that are ****** off, well minus one giant simp that viewed it and simped
Hes made the news and his tweet is embedded in news sites, meaning it’s getting an obscene amount of views. What isn’t to get? Do you think views for this tweet translates to some kind of profit?

How many of the millions are just you clicking it Mr. Troll.
60m views on this, I bet he's laughing because he applied a view limit on Tweets and Twitter exploded. He's telling people to log off Twitter and go outside while sat watching the active user count increase.
Of course active users translates to revenue. Both ad revenue and increased purchasing of Twitter blue.

His fanclub seem more deluded than he does.
That ain't 60 million views of people logged in or viewing ads - the site is pretty broken right now and if you try to do a lot of things Twitter related you end up at:
This is going to cause more harm than good for Twitter, it is on thin ice right now but the momentum is slowly turning away from it and if the dam breaks it will go quick.

Lord, grant me the confidence of someone who is that wrong and charges head-on regardless...

Its quite easy :
In order to fool someone you only have to exceed their intelligence. Test passed.
In order to get someone to admit they have been fooled you need to exceed their pride. Test failed.

Forget one man, one vote. Elon supports one parent, one vote. He'll start pushing one verified account one vote soon.

Gotta hand it to Elon, it's a great plan.
1) Over-pay for Twitter.
2) Claim that you're a free speech absolutist.
3) Claim to want to make Twitter a free speech zone.
4) Un-ban then re-ban a bunch of previous rule-breakers.
5) Stop paying operating bills.
6) Start paying some operating bills.
7) Start limiting engagement, when engagement is kind-of the raison d'être of the whole deal.
8) ???
9) Underpants!
10) Pancake?
11) No, just underpants.
12) ???
13) No profit at all!

Is anyone still insisting Elon is a genius?
The man doesn't have a clue.

I met Mark can't believe his luck, at this point Elon is basically gifting him the members at a time of their choosing.
