And if Twitter wasn't well regarded and not at it's peak, Musk really overpaid for it, which he did and he knows it and we all know it. I don't use Twitter, and I don't drink Coca Cola, but I know that buying the entire brand and then changing it is bad business.
Interesting analogy. So what you're suggesting is was previously a platform that clearly catered to a certain demographic (carnivores?) and afterwards it's become a platform catering to a completely opposite demographic (vegans)....
I think what's really happening is some people got used to going to the food court at the mall and every option being McDonalds.....now they got some Chick Fil A, Chipotle, and Panda Express and are completely bewildered by it and maybe accidentally call it all "Vegan" because they don't really understand the new and different foods just yet. :)
But then again you might just literally be talking about the "X" brand/logo and the "Twitter" brand/logo.....in which case my analogy may not make complete sense
