Yet another petition against Twitter's name change, but it's poorly written with bad English.

I know and I also know that the entire Twitter community has zero say about its direction now that EM owns it.

Stay there and stay angry or realise that sunk cost (both economic and emotional) is real and cut your losses and move on with your life.

I see that you are responsible for posting the other useless change.org petition the other day so I know you will not listen to this but that is the reality.

You have zero control or say, while EM has it all.

And finally, the “boiling frog” syndrome is total horseshit, once the water reaches a certain temp, the frog realises the danger and leaves.

Quote:

"according to modern biologists the premise is false: changing location is a natural thermoregulation strategy for frogs and other ectotherms, and is necessary for survival in the wild. A frog that is gradually heated will jump out. Furthermore, a frog placed into already boiling water will die immediately, not jump out"

I wonder if you are as smart as an amphibian.

You are still a boiling frog. If you continue to do nothing against Elon and be a boiling frog, you will regret it. That's why I post these petitions. Also, I don't think these petitions are useless.

Like I said:

I know you will not listen

So keep your anger, Maybe move to France. Cooked frog is a delicacy there so your anger will have a positive in the end.
