    “Xitter,” pronounced “Shitter”

    Xitter ! love it, now lexicon

    Usage: Can’t wait to watch Xitter (pronounced Zit - ter) pop after Musk wrecks the train.

      I’ve always read X as a “sh” adjacent sound so Xitter basically reads like “shitter” to me.

            So it’s probably more specific to “xi”, and not x by itself ;)

      Shitter is probably the best name for it I have heard so far.

    He is turning himself into a comical evil villain. Next he’ll be explicitly his evil plan to 007.

    Yikes, that thumbnail. Musk is literally a neckbeard now? He must be leaning into it.

        Is that the actual purpose? I genuinely assumed it was just an incredible irony

          It doesn’t always work but yea, people all over Lemmy started to complain about all the posts covering Twitter and Reddit so many of them are in dedicated communities now. I actually like to watch Musk fuck up so unbelivably every few days but others don’t and that’s a good compromise if you ask me!
