I feel like it is going to be very important to remember that Elon has not purchased Twitter, Elon has made an offer to purchase Twitter and the board of Twitter has agreed to accept his offer. This is not a "Buy it now" price on eBay where he charged it to a credit card, I have a signed agreement to pay $57k for a car that doesn't literally does not exist in my backpack right now, for which I have not arranged financing for because no one know when/if it is going to be delivered. Elon does not have $44B dollars, this still, like everything Elon, has the potential to become spectacularly more stupid than any of us have the capacity to imagine at this point.



I'm still convinced he's doing all this to pump up the share price just to dump all the twitter stock he bought last month right before he calls off this deal.

It's like when he bought some crypto, threatened to only do Tesla business with said crypto, idiots bought up the crypto, shot the price up, and then Elon sold off his crypto making outrageous profit.

I really hope the deal ends up going through. Elon buying it seems like the kiss of death and twitter loving off forever is only good. There's no bad side to it at all.

Pretty sure we’ll see a big exodus of talent once Elon takes over and starts instituting mandatory 80 hour weeks like at his other companies. Say what you will but tech workers don’t have to put up with that I. Todays job market.

3 and a half years from now your government issued identify NFT will be delivered via your department of homeland security provided twitter profile. if you lose your NFTID or are caught posting pro-union rhetoric, you will be arrested and forced to work in a remote self-driving labor facility.

Price per share is almost meaningless. The number of shares available matters too. Priceline and loving Chipotle have a higher stock price than Apple and Google. It's almost completely meaningless.

That's what I suspect, Musk loves a pump & dump and that's the vibe that I'm getting.

Twitter is for dumb babies who want to eat poo but they're too stupid to cram the turd in their mouths and end up splatting it in their eye and they start to cry and scream until their hungover dad comes in, irritated as gently caress, with a box of cereal and starts swatting them in the back of the head with it while saying "Shut up shut up"
