Chris Hayes in the NY Times: Why I Want Twitter To Live

Way too much to excerpt a fair sample of everything he says here. Please read it all. I especially liked Chris's observation about Musk as both a Twitter addict and attention addict who is "deep in the bowels of his own replies and mentions" and that is "a path to madness" - one that Twitter and other social networks guide you down.

Mr. Musk walked into the very trap that Twitter sets for its users - dangling the promise of constant social attention. And because he also happens to be the world's richest man, he ended up with the most expensive impulse purchase in human history. It's fitting, in its own chaotic way.
