The remarkable thing is really how much hate speech this announcement triggered on X

I didnt see any hate speech. I saw a bunch of critical, reactionary, and stupid takes, but nothing close to hate speech.

Well I guess it depends on where you draw the line. Let's say there was a fair number of openly or covertly aggressive takes among the not too many (dozens) comments that I scrolled over

I deleted my Twitter account a while back, so can’t see the replies. I am now imagining people engaging in claims that suspension bridges secretly control all the banks, etc.

Why do people need to make an announcement. Just leave.

Let users know to to expect new posts, where to find updates moving forward, and explain to followers why they are leaving.

I get that many people also want to make a social statement, but there are still many legitimate reasons to communicate something if you have followers.

Social coordination and posturing, same reasons anyone announces their participation in a movement, and let's be clear, leaving Musk Social is a brewing movement
