The new name goes well with the audience as they already use extensively nazi swastika symbols as an expression of opinions.
Thank you, Elon, absolutely genius business decision! I was really put off using a website with a highly recognisable and long lived brand, finally this solves the biggest issue I've had with Twitter since the takeover. It was such a huge issue before that it eclipsed everything else, I don't even think there are any other glaring issues. Can't wait to log back into Twitter now after this! Oh shit I mean ... X or whatever.
Elon is genuinely useless
Elongated Muskrat continues to deliver on the endless entertainment.
what were they thinking?
How long until Elon starts referring to himself as Mr X, like Homer does in an episode of The Simpsons?
Fat Idiot went full cuckoo.
It would actually take serious effort to think of a worse name. Besides everyone knew what Twitter and tweeting are. Incomprehensible decision.
Good name for anticipating the eXodus.

😂😂😂😂😂😂 that dipshit really did it
I guess birds aren't real after all.
Elon is trying to get the Crest from Birdmans Helmet.
man i hope he buys reddit and runs it into the ground. he seems to be really good at tearing down social media companies.
The guy running Reddit seems to be doing a good job of tearing down himself.

What if Elon and Zack are in this together and Zack promised Elon a chunk of the shares for making threads successful by destroying the competition of Twitter with something more profit producing. Elon's reputation is just the sacrificial goat for making threads a success for both billionaires.
Puts aluminum hat back on.
