Dan’s Thoughts:
Elon Musk faces a number of tough decisions over the coming weeks and months, but as one of the most prolific entrepreneurs of all time, it’s hard to really bet against him. And the long term of Twitter, I’m hearing more and more from the industry, from tech, from different technology clients of mine, whether or not they should continue to use Twitter, is this gonna change in the long run?
I think he’s gonna get it right. We have to understand we’re in a very difficult moment right now. With the elections, we get a lot of very heated feelings, but the idea of an open town square that’s properly moderated gets rid of hate speech and deals with the actual need for us to have open discourse about what we disagree with.
Much like Tesla’s polarizing views in the long term will not stop the company from being a. He’s proven that time and time again, hard to bet against Elon Musk, but right now it’s just a difficult moment.
