> I don’t see anything in what you wrote really support that Twitter did well after firing 80% of its staff.

That’s because I didn’t make any claims about X’s financial performance. I was explaining to you why you were wrong on some important facts.

> This is objectively false. 2020 revenue for Twitter was $3.71B while 2021 came in at $5.07B.

First, you’re conflating revenue and profit, which is kind of unforgivable in this context. Second, I explained that in those years they made large profits. In my comment. Which you clearly didn’t read.

If this is just where you like to emotionally vent may I instead recommend Reddit? I like the interesting discussions here.

Again, you added nothing and are suggesting I was wrong on some facts? Can you point to my comment that you responded to provide the fact that I was wrong about?

Err I am not? Seems like you’re intentionally misrepresenting what I’ve said.

> this is just where you like to emotionally vent may I instead recommend Reddit

Seems like you’re the one intentionally or unintentionally engaging in a Reddit like discourse. In sister comment you say Elon Musk was the only investor in Twitter which quick Google search will tell you is incorrect. I feel you need to hold yourself to the standard that you accuse me of not having.
