Liza Minnelli has officially outlived Twitter’s nightmare of a double verification idea.
Less than two hours after users began noticing official tags underneath verified accounts, they began to disappear. Musk claimed ownership over the decision, abruptly reversing days of policy statements in a reply tweet — of all things.
“I just killed it,” he tweeted in a reply to producer Marques Brownlee. “Blue check will be the great leveler.” There has been a common misconception that people who currently have verified Twitter accounts, like politicians, celebs and journalists, represent an elite class. Musk has positioned his entire leadership of Twitter, its purchase, its firings, even its new features, as a move to level an ongoing class struggle.
“Widespread verification will democratize journalism & empower the voice of the people,” Musk tweeted earlier in the month, doubling down on his idea of bringing power to the people. The problem? The billionaire doesn’t realize which side of the fight he’s on. His takeover of Twitter has been consistently marred by bizarre policy changes and rollbacks, including the
of a Twitter account that followed his stated rules for parody accounts. For Musk, everything is personal — an attitude that can’t bode well for Twitter’s future.“Please note that Twitter will do lots of dumb things in coming months,” Musk tweeted today, Nov. 9. “We will keep what works & change what doesn’t.” It might be possible that what doesn’t work is Musk.
