- The broader public largely doesn't care about Twitter, but Musk's other ventures and political transformation remain newsworthy.
Twitter's Negative Externalities
- Spending too much time on platforms like Twitter can negatively influence one's behavior, fostering antagonism, curtness, and sarcasm.
- It's crucial to remember that Twitter doesn't represent the real world and avoid letting its negativity seep into real-life interactions.
