I've bitched for a few years about how the upcoming absurdity of billionaires will be the final death-knell of the American Empire.
Elon Musk buying Twitter can only end terribly in what from now on will be America's ongoing season of "Bored Billionaires Making Shit Worse For Us", but this article does a great job of blaming social media for all of society's ills without mentioning that oh yeah, "regular" media has been even fucking worse in its desperation to keep Trumpism alive for $$$$$. Social media has been terrible and is an easy scapegoat - particularly since it lends itself to lazy bitching about younger generations - but NOBODY has sprained their hamstrings desperately trying to normalize Trump et al more than the mainstream media. So fuck them too.
