Holy f*ck.
I know most of y'all have fully abandoned Twitter, but good lord if he actually does this (which is not guaranteed mind you) a LOT of vulnerable people are going to get hurt.

Probably because people block bluechecks en masse to make the site slightly more bearable
I think it's a) because so many people block him and b) to pump metrics with harassment campaign "engagement"
Another reason is, he's said the block feature "significantly increase server costs", which tbh may actually be true.
This is not going to happen because both the App Store and Google Play Store require a block feature to have your app in their storefront
It’s a part of elon’s master plan of losing advertisers, access to the app stores, losing users, etc all to….
… listen the man’s a genius, who knows whats going on in there
Furthermore at this point, everyone who continues to use and advertise on his platform is complicit in enabling his bullshit.
If there’s a Nazi at the table with 10 other people sitting there talking to him, you've got a table with 11 Nazis.
He has to be destroying Twitter on purpose, there's absolutely no way a person could make this many perfectly idiotic decisions in a row unless it was deliberate.
What I don't know is why you'd buy a social media platform for $44b and deliberately speed-run it into oblivion, but I'm sure the reasons are not good.
he's a failchild that's failed upwards his entire life and is surrounded by yes men. he's remarkably stupid.
