Elon Musk Leaves Us Hanging The Big Question About X Still Unanswered
Elon Musk Leaves Biggest X Question Unanswered Once Again
During a recent appearance at the Dealbook Summit, the notorious Elon Musk made headlines once again. But this time, it wasn’t just because of his expletive-laden outbursts. No, this time, it was because he dropped a bombshell about the future of X.
In response to questions about advertisers boycotting X, Musk had a simple message: “Go fuck yourself.” No, seriously, he said it multiple times. And while his choice of words may have been shocking, the bigger question on everyone’s mind is: What happens now to X?
Despite the company’s struggles, Musk did not directly address selling or investing his own money into X to keep it afloat. Instead, he cryptically stated, “If the company fails because of advertiser boycott, it will fail … and it will be gone.” Talk about a suspenseful cliffhanger!
But that wasn’t the only question left unanswered. When asked if he would consider selling or giving away X, given its apparent headache-inducing nature, Musk deflected the question entirely. Instead, he delved into defending a controversial tweet he made, leaving us to wonder about his exit strategy.
One thing is clear: X is in deep trouble – worse than ever before. Advertisers have been fleeing the platform, leaving CEO Linda Yaccarino with an uphill battle to salvage revenue. In fact, rumor has it that Yaccarino is receiving texts from ad execs advising her to abandon ship before her reputation is irreparably damaged. Even X advertising sales staffers are reportedly resigning, signaling a sinking ship.

With Musk’s ominous declaration and the mass exodus of advertisers, it’s hard to imagine X surviving much longer. The big question now becomes: How does X keep going if Musk doesn’t step up with his own cash? Will the former Twitter just shut down? The uncertainty is palpable.
Some speculate that Musk is secretly sabotaging X, aiming to bring down its debt – akin to burning down a failing restaurant for insurance money. But personally, I think it’s more likely that Musk is just terrible at running a social platform and lacks impulse control when it comes to saying stupid stuff. After all, we’ve seen this before with Tesla.
Despite countless declarations of “Twitter is dead” throughout Musk’s tenure, the platform soldiers on. People continue to use it religiously, with some (myself included) checking it 18 times a day. However, this time feels different. This time, the end seems imminent.
So, what does the future hold for X? Unfortunately, even Musk couldn’t provide a clear answer. All we can do is brace ourselves for the final stage and hope it’s not as chaotic as Musk’s interviews tend to be. Who knows? Maybe this time, he’ll surprise us all with a coherent exit plan.
Now, dear readers, I turn to you. What are your thoughts on the uncertain fate of X? Do you believe Musk’s controversial statements are truly the death knell for the platform? And most importantly, how many times have you checked Twitter since starting this article? Feel free to share your insights and anecdotes in the comments below!
