Hollismason posted:Reading right now that apparently he's verifying Neo Nazis and transphobic homophobic organizations as well. He isn't verifying anyone. There is no verification process anymore. The only check is if your credit card goes through. Musk is indirectly to blame for transphobes and homophobes being able to get the now useless checkmark, but he's not personally verifying them.

Hollismason posted:Any estimates on exactly how much money was lost by the tweet that crashed the insulin company? No actual money was really lost by the company, their stock price just dipped a bit and will inevitably rebound. Also, always remember the chart when people post graphs that show a stock 'crashing':

lol he's riding the same phenomenon that made Trump so "interesting" and "memeable"; being a complete loving Rodeo Clown sized failure to a point where it's unavoidble and people can't shut the gently caress up about him. A "Bad press is still press" golem.

I like corporations feeling the bite of the post-truth era. It's a big spoonful of medicine that should lead to a societal desire to demand more transparency of products and how they can be legally advertised.

How does someone even have the energy to post 50+ times per day on Twitter? I understand the urge to talk mad poo poo over the most unimportant things possible, but I can't imagine devoting an entire day's worth of mental effort to ruminate on this one topic and livepost about it for 12 hours. The last time I tried to tweet passionately about a subject I got maybe four tweets out before I got distracted because an old friend saw me shitposting and wanted to catch up with me. Is that the difference? Friendship?

musk’s “fact check” on bernie isn’t even right, bernie never said it was invented in 1921, he just said when the patent was sold

I'm sure they will all get right on that, and not just, say, sue the people loving with them.

Did Musk think that Twitter would welcome him as a liberator, a la the Russians going into Ukraine? And now is hurt and angry that he wasn't received with open arms and everyone just nodding along and doing what he imagined they would do?

Elon you're looking at this the wrong way. A guy tweeted something that cost Eli Lilly $16 billion, what if they paid you $15 billion to not let him tweet it? You've just tripled twitter's yearly revenue!

Elon's experience with Twitter prior to buying it was probably pretty limited to techbros and cryptobros sucking his rear end in a top hat. He wasn't prepared to deal with everyone just clowning on him
