Episode description

Elon Musk is (still) (most likely) buying Twitter, and along with a change in leadership, many are anticipating changes to the platform that was once home to some of the best moments in pop culture history ("Delete your account," anything Nicki Minaj has ever posted, etc.). If some media prognosticators are to be believed, those revolutionary cultural moments are going to be replaced with more vitriol should Twitter take the shape of its new leader, a self-described "free speech absolutist."

For the Twitter users who rely solely on the platform for work, connections, and more...that poses a problem. So what might Twitter look like, and what would be the potential breaking point for the platform's biggest power users to finally call it quits on the bird app?

Journalist Fortesa Latifi weighs in, today on Thinking Is Cool.
