Does anybody else have a feeling like it’s a New Coke situation?
Drive it into the ground, then a year later come back with a shadow CEO and say “We’re back and better than ever”…profit.
He's already installed the shadow CEO.
They seriously need to put her face as the last image on the Wikipedia page for sycophant. The pattern is her lagging response with hollow corporate, "girlboss" speak to frame a random 2am gut response from elon as a considered business decision. Her statements to justify his BS are BURSTING with double speak and circular nothingness.
How is that supposed to work?
Nope. I think it's a "billionaire who isn't half as smart as he thinks" situation. It's his shoddily built submarine, ready to fail catastrophically at any moment.
After all, has "New Coke" ever worked for a website? Once those users have found somewhere else, they're never coming back.
Get people to start missing it like Twinkies.
