Yesterday I was having a conversation with someone about Elon Musk and they said that despite everything they feel a little bad for him due to the sheer number of crypto spam he has to wade through on Twitter. They stopped feeling bad when I reminded them that the reason his replies are nonstop crypto scams is because he is himself a crypto scammer. I also pointed out that if he doesn’t want to deal with that, he can just get off Twitter. Then we both realized at the same time… no. He can’t. He is now obligated to stay on Twitter and he can’t stop posting no matter how bad he wants to. There are sci-fi novels where arrogant rich people doom themselves to less horrible fates.

Munsk could literally hire a focus group to tweet for him and never have to care but he doesn't roll like that

I feel like Elon is just spending all of his time replying to MAGA people or crypto bros at this point https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1588676939463946241?s=20&t=87rYfaOBGYx-XzDOzdPThw

That's hilarious and more proof that a company can work fine with limited CEO poo poo, but you take away the secretaries and low tier workers, and everything loving stops.

Well it's not like the CEO is ironing out the details of when the Black pink Album Drop tweets happen, what the verbage is, etc. Makes total sense that canning the workforce means that even if people wanted to do business they have massive organizational issues to overcome.

He's right Elon's definitely a Lex Luthor mastermind here and not a dude who let success go to his head and made him believe he could do anything without research or listening to people who've been there longer. This is definitely a 44 Billion dollar plot to become well-liked by two groups who both already liked him
