He owns the cesspit.

He is not going anywhere.

This change.org petition remind me of my grandfathers saying about wishing for something:

Wish in one hand, shit in the other and see which one gets full first.

edit: This petition has received 6 signatures in 9 months...

It's at 7 now!

Also Musk already had his own poll along the lines of "Should I immediately step down as CEO?". The results were yes, and he ignored it for 6 months, then appointed some poor figurehead while he still continued to act as CEO.

Honestly, I think the person who was appointed as CEO will do well out of it.

It will be great on their CV and all the fuck ups can be answered with, That was Elon's call.

Twitter would have looked great on her resume back when Twitter had credibility. She's been brought on to increase advertising revenue by making the platform look safe and professional, which is basically impossible with Elron stunting all over the place. She also already had a great work history, so I'm not sure how much it will really help her. She's as much CEO as Medvedev as in charge when Putin pretended to step down for a few years.
