You could argue against creating the feature, but once it already exists and it's not taking up any real processing power or cluttering the interface, why would you ever remove any feature. Does he understand it? No. Do some people use it and find it beneficial? Probably, yeah. Are you forced to use it? No. So what's the problem?
It's like a car manufacturer ordering a recall to remove the the mirror on the passenger side visor because he never uses it. Some people do, my dude, it's not hurting anything, and it will actually cost you money to remove it instead of leaving it. Just leave it alone, dude.
Or... he's not being honest and he wants to remove it because it hurts his ego to know that so many block his account. Yeah, it's probably that.
Yea no way that's happening. The guy can get away with a lot but burning the entire app to the ground probably has a few legal safeguards.

'You'll listen to nazi propaganda even if we have to shove it down your throat!'

It makes no sense.
I truly can't imagine how this is true. It's such a simple thing to understand.
He literally bought it to try to make a payment processor and be king of the internet.
Only twitter users think twitter is important.
Don't most app stores have terms and conditions that require social media websites to have actual functional block features? Having them only work for DMs doesn't feel very functional...

Imagine if Elon was playing a long con game and is actually trying to kill Twitter on purpose by disguising himself as the rest of the Republicans in support of them.
Like this "10 dimensional chess" game is him actually just doing the most mundane and simple changes to kill the platform intentionally.

Probably spelled "cents" incorrectly.
