Mark Zuckerberg said fellow social media magnate Elon Musk’s “polarizing” management and posting style are the main reasons his platform X is not reaching its full potential.
In a conversation with The Verge this week, Mr. Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook’s parent company, lamented the current position of X, long known as Twitter, in the social media landscape.
Despite his criticisms, Mr. Zuckerberg did say that he saw some promise in Mr. Musk’s $44 billion takeover of Twitter last year, praising his fellow multi-billionaire as a “change agent.” Since taking over the platform late last year, Mr. Musk has radically changed the site. In an effort to bolster free expression on the site, Mr. Musk has loosened content moderation on X and invited controversial users back. This, some argue, has led to an uptick in hate speech and offensive posts on the platform.
