Did you ever hear the tragedy of Twitter the brand?

I thought not. It's not a story the blue bird would tell you. It's a ๐• legend.

Twitter was a microblogging website, so powerful and so concise, it could use the tweets to influence the Internet packets to disseminate...news. It had such a broad reach onto the masses that it could even check the ones it cared about from lying.

The capitalist side of big tech is a pathway to many eventualities some consider to be unnatural.

It became so well-known, the only thing it was afraid of was losing its branding, which eventually of course it did. Unfortunately, Elon Musk bought off majority stake in the company, killed the blue bird, and replaced it with a letter. Ironic, it can save other brands from death, but not itself.
