I’m pretty certain I know how Musk would respond to this. It’s inappropriate for Beehaw.
hydroptic, Something something woke mind virus something
averyminya, Or some bs like I didn’t make my money by being nice.
some_guy, He’s a genius playing 8D chess. You just don’t understand. By this time next week, Twitter will be the only website in the world and Lonnie will laugh at you from mars. Just watch!
renard_roux, Insert Bond Villain Plot™ where he’s secretly buying all the EMP-hardened server parks in the world, and it’s getting ready to orbital-nuke everything except Shitter servers back to the stone age.
And of course he will brick every phone and computer everywhere, so nobody will be able to use Shitter, but God damnit, it will be the only site left!
agegamon, Literally only the best strategies here! I mean lets recap:
- Threaten to buy company then double down and agree in writing as a bullying tactic: check
- Roll a nat 1 on your intimidation check: check
- Be forced to follow through when called out on being mentally an 8 yo by the feds: check
- Fire critical employees, like basically all of them: check
- Yoink verification away from public news orgs: check
- Let anyone pay to be “legit,” even if they’re parodying you: check
- Rename twitter to the stupidest thing imagined since head-on (apply directly to the forehead): check
- Gut content moderation policies but also stop enforcing regardless: check
- Post own hate content and racism to the platform: check
- "Accidentally" run ads next to hate content: check
- Be told your sign sucks and to take it down by city: check (lol)
- Become a living embodiment of “big yikes” energy while telling aforementioned advertisers to “go fuck yourselves” on live TV: check
- Hallucinate about making x into a libertarian wechat alternative: check
- Tank the value of the company while blaming literally anyone else for your failures: mission in progress, #1 priority
10/10 solid buy, gonna grab some long calls rn. The koch boys and rupert murderjock must be holding back a tsunami of jealousy by now 🤣
crandlecan, See! This guy gets it!! 😍
Thisfox, You left out “throttle diaster information accounts when the disaster is happening” (Japan earthquake).
agegamon, Check!
Also, I forgot all the tomfuckery he pulled with starlink in Ukraine, cutting off access and the like.
It’s truly a testament to how much shit this guy has done that we forget so much of it.

t3rmit3, follows Musk on LinkedIn
Auzy, Honestly, the only thing keeping X relevant, is news articles at this time.
tesseract, It feels like news agencies run these stories just to rub it in his face.
StantonVitales, That and jokes about refusing to call it X

What’s X?
Empricorn, It marks the spot.

Who is making Yutani?
LoamImprovement, I dunno, but they better watch out if they don’t want Seegson eating their lunch.
BoastfulDaedra, Damn, man. The food ain’t that bad.

I’m honestly a bit surprised
Surprised that it’s only 71% that is

I’d love to see the investment banks start to call their loans that financed this purchase in the first place.
belated_frog_pants, They already wrote them off. If i had lost a 100th of that i’d never have credit ever again
tesseract, You could have the same privileges if you just work hard enough! /s
DavidGarcia, I bet he’ll rename it to “SEX” sooner or later
delmain, He already did that with the Tesla models
S3XY
sqgl, Are Tesla models the Musk equivalent of Heffner’s Playboy bunnies? /s
belated_frog_pants, Looool idiot, i cant believe anyone ever thought he was smart
tesseract, There are still people around who believe that he’s the tech messiah sent to deliver them to Mars.
Titan, I wouldn’t go anywhere this guy tells me to go, nevermind to fucking Mars
tesseract, Of course you wouldn’t. I’m talking about the mob that would. A mob with no more than a few neurons collectively is a danger to everyone else.
Nollij, But would you let him put a chip inside your head, potentially controlling your thoughts and access to information?
Titan, No questions asked!

I used to keep a couple of bookmarks of people I liked to follow to view on Nitter; now I don’t even care about that mostly because the most of them left Twitter.
Kanda, Why are we still talking about this dead platform?

As easy as it is to hate what he did to Twitter I wonder how much of that original value was just “VC hype” and now people see it for the failure it has always been like all social media in a way. Turns out it’s pretty hard making money out of non paying users.
ExLisper, The original value was based on ad revenue which is down now. It has nothing to do with VC hype or non paying users.

Not sure things would look much different if Twitter was intentionally destroyed.
DuffmanOfTheCosmos, That’s because it probably was
