I don't think he cares enough to even gloat about their genocide.

here's a couple posts he's put a like on recently

he's more interested in seeming like a hero although he's really done nothing at all

he's more interested in being able to say "see, i dont hate jews, i helped them" during the adl trial

But that’s how it is when you start wanting to have things. Now, I just look at them, and when I go away I carry them in my head. Then my hands are always free, because I don’t have to carry a suitcase.

On balance, I really think Elon is the most pathetic human who has ever lived. Not even in the sense that he could change humanity with his wealth (ain’t no billionaire ever doing that), but he’s just sitting around posting memes and yukking it up with his degenerate army of loving nerds. Get a golden palace and gently caress a supermodel or two, you worthless gently caress

that first one sounds like classic stdh.

Reminds me of a Goon a few years ago, one od the ones that really thrived on attention from all their crazy stories, finally he made one up about being in this insane crash, and the only thing that saved him was his amazing, safe Tesla, posted a bunch of pictures of a Tesla all smashed to poo poo and stuff, thanking Elon for his wondrous magic cars etc. etc.

Turns out all the pictures could be tineyed back to a news story from months prior, from an entirely different country than the Goon claimed to be from, and also they had been lying about literally everything else. Lol.

Advertising revenue drops on the website that markets itself as the best place for up to the minute live information during periods when the demand for up to the minute live information is at its highest.

so I am just gonna hazard a guess that twitter is still rife with disinformation and also loads of uncensored images of people dying or being subjected to war crimes?

I can see how war might affect that specific platform, seems like someone should address that.

Wasn't he trying to pitch this like it's a platform you could make a living creating content for?

Laughing at the idea of Twitch or YouTube arbitrarily stiffing their creators and being all like "sorry pal, war is bad for business" in reference to a war halfway across the world with absolutely no relevance to the creators.

(instead, they'll just demonetize for everything else)

That third panel of the first comic just makes it. It's still funny if you remove it, but that panel included just makes it top tier.
Won't Israel and Hamas consider what this war is doing to x's content creators?

If you think about it, Elon's the real victim here.
