I agree that it seems a little bit over-dramatic, but seeing as an employee said it was a "shit show" (quoting from the article), there must be something going on over there. I can imagine that once the realization set in that Musk wouldn't be joining the board and would in fact just be continuing to criticize Twitter on the platform itself, this caused consternation and people began to wonder where he was planning to go with this.

I get the feeling Musk thinks Twitter is trading at a discount and the discount will increase. Imagine what will happen if they kick the bot armies off, or if they don’t…seems downhill either way. And suppression of conservative views is fueling subscriber emigration to other social media.
