    Legal counsel has to be blowing their brains out as well. How in the world can you defend your trademark when it’s a letter? Good luck playing wack a mole with all the copycats.

      I am seriously starting to wonder if this is just mental illness manifesting. It all feels a bit manic.

        Unfortunate that he is going to get away with being a piece of shit just because he has mental health issues, just like Kanye…

        I have mental health issues, but if I were an asshole to everyone around me, I wouldn’t have anyone around me anymore…. Having a lot of money offsets any sort of obligation to be a decent human.

          Worse than not having anyone around you, since they’ve all gone and no one is around to speak up on your behalf. This is how we end up lost in the “reprobate filing system” which includes jail and hospitals.

        His name is unfortunately “Fuck you I’m not even attempting to pronounce that shit”. Thankfully he won’t go to a public school, poor kid would get bullied so much. Or she? lol

    What importance does an X have for Twitter? What does that represent? The censorship he employs after swearing to adhere to freedom of speech?

      He is a manchild who is still in the phase of thinking X is the coolest letter of the alphabet. Give it a few weeks and he’ll be obsessed with Q or Z instead.

      Maybe it’s Musk’s subconscious attraction to the “edgy” swastika. The Nazis had that at 45 degrees so it becomes a decorated X.

      Thing is, the us legal system is anything but fair. Musk would outspend them tenfold and as such win by cash KO. Shit sucks man.

        Didn’t Facebook steamroll over the people that owned Meta when they picked it up? Maybe they paid them off eventually, not sure.

          I honestly did not follow this to the end. But yeah, they basically took the trademark and gave them the proverbial cash laden finger.
