Maybe it was never intended to show a profit? The more we learn about government sanctioned meddling and control of the big social media platforms, perhaps they were never intended to be functional businesses.
Maybe all along they were supposed to be quasi arms of the intelligence community. Both for monitoring and control. And we are all just willing victims sharing everything publicly and agreeing with the latest thing.

Now that is a real conspiracy theory. Maybe they are just dumb business models.

I agree. In general I find gross incompetence can explain most things which other people would ascribe to conspiracies.
But how long can you attract investors to the tune of billions of dollars to a dumb business model? Eventually it has to collapse as the Ponzi scheme that it is. And perhaps that's what we will see with Twitter now.

Not sure about Twitter.
But everyone should watch the Netflix doc on Facebook and the PBS Frontline doc on TikTok.

Musk fired half the work force and already Twitter is hiring back some of them because they are critical to the functioning of Twitter! Oh shit Elon! Are you sure you know what you are doing? LOL

What an excellent idea.

Imagine if we tried that with civil servants.

Fire them all.

Wait a few days and find out if any service they performed was vital or not. Are the lights still on, food on the shelves, health care available, streets safe, kids getting educated etc.?

Start rehiring from the bottom rung on up until necessary services are restored.

I expect far less than half would need to be rehired.

The remainder can join the private sector workforce and do something productive instead of being parasites on the economy.
