If this is his goal, and if he manages to succeed with it at all, then it’s really only the “good people” who refused to leave Twitter who are to blame. Self-styled liberals and leftists are the only thing Twitter has at this point that differentiates it from the explicitly chud platforms. If they leave, Twitter is just Truth Social with Musk as the main character instead of Trump.

tbh I cannot wait for the brand to do the 2SEXY4U thing I made up so I can quote myself endlessly in this thread and Musk will have to eventually sheepishly reply and out himself on the SomethingAwful dot com forums to a hail of dicksuckers and detractors

I think if you stanned Elon per-Indonesian cave diver incident it's mostly excusable. If you stanned Elon after he called the guy the guy a pedophile in a fitted pique after the dude pointed out his child submarine idea was just an over-designed underwater child-sized coffin, then you don't really have a leg to stand on.

Seems to happen around billionaires without exception. Happened with Trump too. Pretty sure it happened with Zuckerberg as well. They just attract grifters with no principles or self-respect, who think they'll be the one person to avoid the knife in the back. I do wish she suffered worse consequences than just being out of a job for a bit.

Does it actually matter though? Like how long could Musk just pay (or refuse to pay) for the losses out of his own pocket before it has any actual meaningful effect on his wealth?

Considering that time that the Saudis dragged him out of bed and immediately forced him to come with them to the World Cup without even giving him the time to properly dress himself, I'd say that it very much matters if he's at all concerned for his own physical safety.

This.

Nigerian scammers purposely misspell words and do other things to make it extremely obvious that they're scamming. This is so that no one with at least two functioning brain cells will respond. They want to only hook the biggest morons on the planet. Otherwise the scammee might eventually figure out that it's a scam at some point and all the scammer's time and effort will have been wasted. They're filtering their potential victims.
