This week's On with Kara Swisher has back to back interviews with Yoel Roth (the guy in the TAL ep) and the new CEO of Twitter, Linda Yaccarino and it's worth a listen.
The juxtaposition of the two interviews is something. Roth comes across as a smart, serious person trying to (and admittedly sometimes failing) be a good steward of the internet and tackles the challenges using facts and data. Yaccarino follows up by literally being the definition of a stooge. Very clearly not attached to reality, doesn't know things that Musk has tweeted in spite of saying at the top of the interview they're 100% attached and in the loop with everything Elon's doing. Absolute clown show.
So yeah, expect literally everyone to have a hand in the cookie jar come the '24 election. There isn't enough competence in the company to fill a thimble at this point, and leadership at the company probably is either entirely ignorant of the problem(Yacco), or actively engaging in sabotage in tandem (Musk.)
