“Twitter owner Elon Musk officially changed the company’s famous bird logo to an “X” on Monday as part of a sweeping rebrand he announced on the social media site over the weekend.
Musk, who acquired the platform for $44 billion late last year, wrote in a post Sunday that the company would soon “bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds.” As of Monday, the domain X.com directs users to Twitter’s homepage, though Twitter.com also remains live. Branding in the mobile app has not changed for many users yet.”

in Your-' -ring; amping upPunch-Out-.You guys must be on masterdon now or threads 😂
Can we do a follow up please geniuses 👀
I can’t comprehend how he could be dumb enough to come up with such a ridiculous name such as “X” for Twitter as well as that cryptic ass name for his son! Someone give him a nomination for a “Biggest Dumbass of All Time” award! 🥇🥇🥇🥇 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Elon Musk: "All of these rooms are made of asbestos by the way, keeps out the rats. Just let me know if you feel a shortness of breath, a persistent dry cough, or your hot stopping. That's not a part of the job, that's asbestos."
14 minutes of x shaming how boring I fell asleep
strategy behind it is genious though because it is a good strategy
Everyone said Elon Musk couldn’t do Tesla or SpaceX!!! He’s one of the most Intelligent Humans and makes his dreams reality. Look at Starlink, bringing free Internet to Millions of people in Ukrainian, nobody else did that. If anyone hates on Elon it’s because they are jealous, ignorant, probably a Biden supporter, no common sense and definitely can’t make their own dreams a reality.
Imagine paying 44 billion dollars for a word, and then hitting backspace until it's gone.
I just don't understand why he even bought Twitter to begin with, and why not let it be and simply start the X company on the side ,,
I didn't subscribe to X.
I subscribed to Twitter.
UNINSTALL
Is Twitter only for adults now?
This is Elon's version of New Coke combined with Bud Lite.
No wonder why he named it X, he has plenty of them.
I miss old twitter and x is a horrible name 🙄
Reminds us of mr x of speed racer or the x files .
Genius pure genius .
Funny… Elon does not even believe his own crap…
That's some motivation…
Let's all just keep calling it Twitter. Elmo Musk would lose his ish daily over it.
Do you know what the letter “x”represents in Greek? Christ!! I absolutely believe Elon is the anti Christ! There is some reason he really loves the letter “x”! Don’t forget his father is Evil and has done EVERY evil thing imaginable. That’s what Elon said. Did the Apple fall far from the tree?
Videos will be called X videos WTF
see he is so dump to buy a company for 40 billion just to rebrand it
EM Is a dumbass. I really believe he is dumb. Dumber then average humab
Twitter become shitter (Xitter)
Does anyone remember when Musk was still involved with Paypal and they had a habit of making unauthorized withdrawals from users bank accounts, withholding payments for payments they had processed for their users or simply refusing to pay out for extended periods, now Musk wants people to trust him for being involved with banking again?
Lol , I deleted app from my phone, did not realize what it is….😂can live without… I’m not getting it back to my phone
Elon Musk is certainly an X man, alright. I'm still gonna call it Twitter though. No way am I saying "I re-Xed that X yesterday"
Funny
Sadly, Musk is starting to remind me of Trump…"the stable genius"…This is what happens when you start believing your own hype…and frankly, they've both always been con artists. Musk is just much smarter…which wouldn't be hard…
Yup people say they can do better than him. But he is became billionaire build big companies while who said those are normal salary man. Wonder how alien will think those work mean when they look at situation compare to work.
Xvideo is already a brand…
Musk is no genius, he's just a douchebag
I guess we can say farewell to Twitter-excuse me, I mean "X." If Twitter wasn't already in a dumpster fire, whether or not under Elon Musk's ownership, it sure will be now!
What exactly is the POINT of this critique??
Tweet — x
Retweet — rex
😶🌫️ ✓ 🤡 ✓
X ?? ✓✓✓✓✓✓✓✓✓
X? Q? Only 24 more to go, and half the country will be able to have a 26-word calming meaningless conversation using single letters.
4:18 lmao brilliant
Might aswell have called it twiXter!! Lol
Half of the global financial market? HAHAHAHAHA!!! If that comment doesn't show he is an idiot, I don't know what does.
X = the placeholder for an idea
Liberals crying are so pathetic.
Cenk, utterly embarrassing himself. Also, Elon didn't buy twitter for a profit (which he will make much more than The young Twats), he did it to stand up for the basic human right of free speech.
I work for a billionaire. Interesting that the young turks connections were involved with eppp 5t31n. This is why they attack. Funny world.
I recently deleted my Twitter.
Maybe he should have combined both and renamed it "Twi-X"…😏
I get it you don't like Elon Musk, but seriously did you even do any research as to when he started to think about calling it X has how he wants to frame this new version of Twitter? I now totally agree with Elon Musk…. some points people say as if they are NPC characters in a simulation (No offense intended) if you had taken some time to research on this fairly you would have realised even as recently as a week ago his biography author Walter Isaac covered this topic in detail as extract from him up coming book. But I guess you want your narrative to push through….. I get it now. name calling and smear campaign is what it is or I am wrong?
Delusions of grandeur, as always. If I won the lottery tomorrow I could be a millionaire. No shit. PS: I deactivated my Twitter/X account today.
0:30 you have no clue like (almost) anybody else. He obviously has given up on saving twitter how it was and the only chance he seems to see to prevent running out of money is to rebrand it and make huge promises that X will be someting totally different and muskish big "take over 50% of all financial services". Big plans for big investors.
Wait wait wait, Elon Musk is 52ys old!? 😳 OMG, I would've never guessed he was older than me. I'm like, WTF! He acts so childish! WOW!
So they're still calling them "tweets?" Why not call them xit's? 💩
😆 Sh!t's, get it!? Oh, the Irony. Before Musk got his hands on it, we were "tweeting." Now we're "sh!ting" 'cause Twitter is literally 💩now. 🤭😁
That was a hilarious take!
'We work' were going to make everything 'we' as well. Look at how that turned out 😂
