Well it works for most everyone else, so you're going to need to provide more information.

If it's crashing on launch, a crash report would certainly be useful.

Also there might be useful information in /var/log/system.log and ~/Library/Logs/X11/org.macosforge.xquartz.log

But now X11 will crash on launch and continually try to relaunch but it never actually launches without crashing. I tried uninstalling xinit and xorg-server and reinstalling them. I re-ran:
