    Can you expand on how billionaires are dismantling social media?

        No. I don’t see how it was “dismantled.” Can you explain?

              It is wasteful by way of being botted up to the point of inefficiency for individual political communication and its owners are happy to take payments from abusive operators responsible for the bots, if not doing the botting themselves. That’s just Twitter. Other platforms experience similar crapitalist growing pains albeit not all exactly in the same way. For profit motivated entities, there’s always a diminishing ROI on politically actionable systems.

                Twitter was a bot fest long before Musk took it over. And that isn’t a problem with billionaires, but an inherent problem with system itself that can be, and is, exploited by plenty of people.
