Elon Musk, the owner of X, criticized advertisers with expletives on Wednesday at The New York Times’s DealBook Summit.
It’s very funny that his single biggest failure is so public. Like if The Boring Company couldn’t find customers, it would just quietly shut down. Newsworthy, but only for like a day.
This is monthly stories about severe incompetence and petulance.

biggest failure in public…so far.
As much as Musk is an idiot these days with his antisemitism and MAGAism, I don’t think the Vegas Loop is a failure. It was never a HYPER-loop, just regular loop (low speed). The city of Vegas likes it enough they are planning on expanding it even more.

If? Besides a few small projects have they ever scored anything significant?
There are different levels of “public”. Musk doesn’t need to publicly announce he’s telling all the advertisers to fuck off, he could tell it to them on a private call and then the public would most likely only know what advertisers are pulling out. The whole “fuck off” statement never needed to be public, Musk made it public because he can do whatever the fuck he wants. The same goes for a lot of things you see about Twitter. He didn’t need to do his things in public, he simply did.
that is not what I’m saying. the failure of twitter is a public issue. it affects the public. nobody should give a fuck about the boring company.
