I like how he took a poll about whether or not he should gently caress off of Twitter, was told to gently caress off and get a new CEO, and then undercut her authority at every opportunity.

So now he has a CEO leeching off revenue and providing zero productivity. I like to think it's only hastening the crawl to bankruptcy.

Honestly in this case I don't think so. Twitter has always been a notoriously lovely ROI for advertising and it's only getting worse. Most people were there because of momentum. If Elon made even an attempt at respectability some of them might scurry back, but yelling "Go gently caress yourself" to the CEO of Disney pretty much cements your site as one not worth advertising on.

Does he explain what he means by blackmail in the full clip? Like are people making specific demands?

That or outright denied he said it.

Seen that happen in the news in the last several years even when there is footage of people saying something they then deny ever saying.

He is absolutely gonna double down with a #GoFuckYourself tweet because he has to now, all his reply guys are gonna think he’s awesome for standing up to advertisers and he’s weirdly desperate for their approval so they’re just throwing shovels at him now. It’s gonna be very funny

It just boils down to Elon believing that he can do and say whatever he wants without consequence. You know, the right winger's definition of "Free Speech".
