and there it is, the cry of the mediocre white kid who was too stupid to get any scholarships or decent offers and couldn't understand how his black/asian classmate did.

No mental connection has ever been made between him spending 8 hours a day gaming and the other kid spending his spare time studying and volunteering.

Have advertisers left the platform in significant numbers, or did they just do the regular move where they drop ads from a platform until people stop paying attention and then crawl back?

In the newest complaint, filed in California Superior Court in San Francisco, Writer says that Twitter failed to pay a bill for the relatively humble amount of $113,856.

quote:

Since then, Musk’s social media venture has been sued for non-payment by Writer and at least five others:

Its landlord in San Francisco, Columbia REIT
A private jet transportation service provider, Private Jet Services Group
An events-planning and production company, Blueprint Studios Trends
An M&A consulting firm, Innisfree M&A
And Analysis Group, a company that provided litigation related consulting services to Twitter and its counsel before Musk bought the company.

Hard to say, I think some are coming back but from this article last month it seems like the decline is pretty serious (40% drop in daily revenue compared to last January)

He should spend even more of his money like a stupid cock wart and buy all the newspapers that dropped the Dildo man's lazy rear end worker drone comic strip and force them to put Dilbert back on their paper like he forced Twitter to unban them Babylon Bee and the went "Uuuh..l now what?". What's the most it could cost? $44 billion?

Because I love suffering looked into that study, and of course what it actually asked was "Do you agree with the phrase 'It's OK to be white'?", which has been a dogwhistle used exclusively by racists from the start. It's like a study asking "Do you agree with the phrase 'Jews will not replace us'?" and then breathlessly reporting that X% of the population do, in fact, want Jews to replace whitey.

It’s sickening seeing the chuds responding “cutting the woke dead weight” or whatever, zero empathy from these fuckholes. And yet I am sure a large % of them got the government handouts for their lovely small businesses.

This is the logical extension of the vulture capitalist view of employees as barely tolerable cost centers to be ruthlessly slashed at any opportunity. Just one CEO and 3<n<12 board members squatting in the ruins of a once profitable business, like gargoyles but without the useful architectural functions.

I suspect its financially driven rather than cutting dead weight. Musk is ceasing paying bills left and right. It looks like a financial crunch.
