just gotta reiterate that the original quote is:

Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, Vox populi, vox Dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit.

And those people should not be listened to who keep saying the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the riotousness of the crowd is always very close to madness.

How much can they do to him if he just sacrifices the European market and aligns himself fully with the right wing griftosphere, making Twitter essentially a larger scale version of Parler? It's not like Elon has proven himself unwilling to go scorched earth with his own capital.

If he burns the Euro market then he's going to be absolutely hosed in regards to actually making payments and the like, and he's also burning bridges with amazon and the like and that's going to make it worse.

A billionaire is only a billionaire because of their business connections.

What does assuming the leader of a regional power is not some fanatical :foxnews: caricature of a terrorist but a competent politician pursuing a rational strategy to thwart the potential for revolution in his sphere of influence have to do with the British?

"Serious about the religion" ≠ "gently caress up your own strategy obsessing over shitposts written by white people that the people who actually pose a threat to your regime will never see". And as far as people committing blasphemy or lese-majeste on Twitter in KSA, he has his own security authorities who can deal with that.

Twitter is hosed financially no matter what he does, not unless he's willing to sink another 10 billion into it to keep it out of the hands of the banks when Twitter defaults on its loans. For all the talk about whether Twitter falls apart technically, less attention is being paid to who is paying the bills and with what money.

They want the unbridled greed of the empire and for it to be lauded while forgetting that's half the reason it fell.

The FTC was actively trolling Twitter by dropping "hints" via tweet that violations of things like, say, consent decrees by even former employees of certain firms can be easily reported at their website. The FTC doesn't blink, but there's a fair question of whether they can move fast enough before private sector vultures start tearing the intestines from the corpse first.
