I guess I at least agree that we were naïve with regards to Dorsey and way too slow to realize Twitter was a threat. Looking back now it seems like it was bound to go to hell eventually, and if we look beyond the west it already went to hell a long time ago. And even in the west the tipping point was arguably years before Musk bought Twitter, it was just that people were too addicted to accept how dangerous it was.

So I guess you could criticize people for only realizing now how fucked up Twitter is. Then again, better late than never.
