Elon really was destined to be a c-suite executive.  Being able to dodge personal accountability and place the blame on an external, conspiracist “dark hand” that doesn't exist is truly a skill few have.

This whole verified Twitter debacle is getting too convoluted. The solution is simple: charge everyone who is currently verified (libs basically), and come up with a new checkmark (red ofc) that denotes actual journalistic sources like Babylon Bee and Breitbart. #TwitterRed
