But he was just as relevant before acquiring X without even having to be the owner of it is the point. Ok you see him on your feed you had Tom with MySpace you have U2 with Apple Music this isn’t your first time.
He changed the name, changed the verification system, cozyed up to far right influences. He told Advertisers to go fuck themselves? Ah yes I remember when Tom from MySpace did that
He has to be in the spotlight of attention, but honestly I don't feel like arguing this point with you. I'm tired boss, he's won
He was as relevant as Neil Degrass Tyson was for nerds, but you don't see him managing government policy do you? Sure there was buzz around him, but he actually controls our national discourse now. Like I'm sorry, you're not wining "he was always this relevant" argument. Federal Employees literally hang on his every word now to see if they have a job tomorrow.

Yes but his every word wasn't responsible for different aspects of the websites working or not
Or the fact He called it X, a dumb name, when Twitter had worldwide recognition. You could ignore him in the past but he was shoved down our throat
