Elon Musk, who recently joined Twitter’s board of directors, sent a cryptic tweet on Saturday asking whether Twitter is “dying,” coming just days after Truth Social CEO Devin Nunes called Twitter a “ghost town” when asked to comment on Musk’s involvement in the company.
Musk, who recently bought a 9.2 percent stake in Twitter that made him the company’s biggest individual shareholder, on Saturday shared a tweet featuring a list of top accounts on the platform, noting in his caption that they “tweet rarely and post very little content.”
“Is Twitter dying?” Musk asked.
Musk’s surprise move to take a stake in Twitter and later joining its board became one of the biggest tech stories in the past week. The move fueled speculation whether Musk might have plans to shake up the social media giant, whose commitment to free speech he has called into question.
Tweeting to his 80 million-plus followers on March 25, Musk wrote that “free speech is essential to a functioning democracy” and asked his followers whether they believe Twitter “rigorously adheres” to this principle. Over 2 million Twitter users weighed in, with 70.4 percent voting no.
Twitter has been repeatedly accused of censoring some minority and politically conservative viewpoints, claims that the company denies.
Musk’s ascension to Twitter board member was met with calls from prominent conservatives for him to chart a new course at the company.

Absolutely. First, buy a big stake so your every word moves the company. (note: 22% jump Thursday)
Then, tank the price by talking down the present state of things.
Finally, take advantage of the lowered price to take a commanding (not necessarily formally a controlling stake?) interest and break one of the leftist thought control machines. (And, of course, effect the sort of change that might make it viable and actually worth something, which it’s not now).
...I just followed you...
How do you do that here?
Elon just now started a poll on Twitter:
Elon Musk
@elonmusk
“Delete the w in twitter?”
I voted for deletion.
Titter, here we come.
You can’t do that here, but they do have ping lists, I was talking about Truth Social.
More like a ghost town from a movie set. Not real buildings. Just props. Truth Social doesn’t even use https. It’s not a secure site.
he tweeted late yesterday that they need to turn twit’s SF HQ into a homeless shelter since no one goes there...LOL
what’s he up to?
he apparently tweeted zuckerberg yesterday or the day before and asked if he could buy fb
I would love that .
Facebook has become nothing more than a bunch of snotty little Nazi censors and feckless pricks.
It’s completely going downhill with their nitwit CEO’s vast bullshit.
I 100,% blame Zuck m’f’er for doing the lions share to throw 2020.
I wish a big fat tiger shark would grind him, off Kauai
We’re all counting down the hours until you return refreshed,
renewed and repentant of your cultish Qtard ways. Fitting that
today of all days you should cast aside cultism and rejoin
the ranks of men and sanity and become once again a rational
human.
Many have been praying for your conversion and redemption.
