You guys just aren't true believers in Elon's vision. Who doesn't want to be a serf in Elon's Mars colony? You guys are so dumb and stuck in the past

The true believers thing they'll be the ones just below Elon over everyone else.

The fun part is that if Musk were truly visionary, I bet he’d have no shortage of people willing to enter into voluntary indentured servitude, but he has basically shown his entire rear end to the world since April and I suspect that enthusiasm to enter into Musk-slavery has dimmed somewhat

I wonder when people will realize that Tesla has been powered by the exact same on the spot bullshit with no real plan. Yeah, those cybertrucks are gonna roll of the assembly line any day now, and transported to the dealerships behind the Tesla 18 wheeler cabs. And they'll be truck will be fully automated and pick up Uber passengers on the way.

These are things he has seriously promised that Tesla will deliver on any day now (or well several years ago).

The only need to hire an outside auditor and report to the FTC every two years, so delayed results on this one. But 2023/2024's shaping up to be a banner year for Elmo and Twitter. :v:

The first one is one year after the order, then every two years after. The first will cover 26 May 2022 to 25 May 2023 and must be completed with 60 days of 25 May 2023 which is sadly a long way off but I have faith is going to be a hilarious clusterfuck of results.

Musky's so used to ignoring regulators he's absolutely going to just defy this and treat it with contempt and then be surprised when it turns out the FTC has a lot more teeth than the SEC.

I think Elon Musk has a lot of problems, dumb brain, unfortunate face, fundamentally unlovable, etc. But I think ultimately his biggest problem has always been that in spite of the insane amount of wealth he lucked into he’s got small time grifter mentality.

His actions on twitter have maybe been the most colossal display of penny wise, pound foolish behavior I've ever seen, in addition to being generally completely irrational

remember he's the douche that did some fraud (illegal) killed and attempted to kill tens of thousands by purchasing the rights to, and then increasing the price of, specific drugs by thousands of percents- and then went to jail.

not for the drug related mass murder, for the securities fraud.

been playing a lot of fallout recently and this looks like one of those things the raiders have stuck a head on.

if twitter loses a lot of money maybe elon should consider taking the company public and selling shares. could you imagine? the entirety of humanity could come together under his guidance and own a piece of a history changing company. He invented tesla and took it public, now that he's invented twitter he should do the same!

The dude is so desperate to be liked, its so pathetic. Its like he made all this money but he still knows that people don't like spending time with him, don't like his personality and that he makes them uncomfortable. But the adoration he gets from dorks when he posts memes and shitposts on his twitter makes him actually feel liked.

Another one!

Musk tells Twitter staff remote working will end

quote:

Elon Musk has told Twitter staff that remote working will end and "difficult times" lie ahead, according to reports.

In an email to staff the owner of the social media firm said workers would be expected in the office for at least 40 hours a week, Bloomberg reported.

Mr Musk added that there was "no way to sugar coat the message" that the slowing global economy was going to hit Twitter's advertising revenues.

quote:

Mr Musk said he had "no choice" over the cuts as the company was losing $4m (£3.51m) a day. He has blamed "activist groups pressuring advertisers" for a "massive drop in revenue".

guys i'm trying to fix it but everyone else broke it too badly! you'll just have to work harder!!!
