Lol at elon boasting about spending $80 million on Ukraine when he has that $44 billion twitter purchase pending. Imagine if he actually spent that money on something useful like humanitarian aid instead of buying loving twitter.

Yes but he's using that as an argument on why he personally supports Ukraine even though that's pocket money to him.

well maybe if most of the intelligent people leave the site leaving mostly chuds, boomers and rubes behind... the advertising space could suddenly become more valuable because it has a higher ROI for grifters and parasites... hmmmm.


elon you're a genius

someone said this a few days ago but chuds don't actually want a platform to talk to chuds. they want a platform to 'piss off the libs' and if elon scares off all the sane people then why would the racist loons use twitter?

I think Elon will hold onto twitter for an entire year to not seem like a failure and then announce that he has "fixed" the platform and sell it for nothing. he'll claim he did it for humanity so money was never the point.

My guess would be 1st November 2023.

So it's clear only complete idiots will pay Musk $8 for a checkmark.

This raises the question though, how many chuds will throw money at this to own the libs? Enough to sustain twitter with half employees and no ad revenue?

im actually gonna go with a surprisingly low amount

i'm not into conspiracy theories but people in the youtube comments mention that employees are encouraged to play and those people he encountered in the virtual standup club are awfuly excited over someone new turning up.

If twitter employees could work from home full time then it's logical to assume that a large number of them aren't in a commutable distance to the twitter office. Now, we'd assume Elon would of fired those people in the lay-offs if he was smart but we know that's not the case. LOL!

I was reading about the ID software director Marty Stratton earlier today and was getting massive Elon vibes from him.

https://medium.com/@mickgordon/my-full-statement-regarding-doom-eternal-5f98266b27ce#b04c

It's unrelated to Elon but worth reading if you like getting angry at psychotic bosses. Marty even went to reddit to make a big smear campaign against the composer which resulted in a bunch of sycophants who love brand cyber bullying Mick.

All these goobers lining up to volunteer to fix Elon's mess for him sure are dumb. The pay is good but look what you have to put up with and who knows if he will just shitcan you because a tweet made him mad.

i doubt many of them actually expect to work a twitter. they're probably just hopeful musk will just float over and throw some $$ towards their lovely buisness because they sucked up to him.

Right now Apple and Google are publicly ignoring musk but if they get forced to respond to why they'd look at dropping twitter, "They fired the anti-child-porn team" is a pretty slam dunk indisputable reason in seven words.

Well a lot of that is the horrible right wingers in power are deliberately doing everything they can to destroy the healthcare system in general over there because they want to privatise it and make it american-style so the whole system is deliberately hosed.

Yeah, the NHS has seriously been gutted for like 10+ years and if covid hadn't of happened it would of probably been sold off in pieces by now. UK also declared we hate everyone with brexit so of course there's also a massive lack of staff AND it seems like we're going towards more funding cuts cause of tories little whoopsie on the economy.

when i did cleaning work it was always poo poo but the worst stuff was when people were in the office you were supposed to clean. can you imagine trying to tidy musk's 'office' when he's twitter posting/high as gently caress at 5am and you've got like forty more rooms to do in less than 2 hours.

e: i imagine he's one of those freaks who goes around and sticks his finger down the back of a cupboard and will tut tut if there's dust.

He's been anti-Covid vax since the beginning. He was spouting covid denial and conspiracy theories as soon as cases started.

It's just rare that a person that rich is a conspiracy theory true believer. Most people that well off understand how things really work in the world and that poo poo is much more boring and mundane and profit motivated. Elon has never been part of a normal large company, is not accepted in any real upper class social circles, and his only "friends" are people as batshit crazy as he is. So he has no idea of how companies or governments really operate and get served a non-stop stream of crazy that just reinforces his already hosed-up world view from his upbringing since he's a 3rd or 4th generation techno-facist eugenicist.

Oh really? I didn't know that. I was aware that he wanted his workers to come in and die making his dumb cars but i assumed he was just a loving arsehole who didn't care about the health of his workers instead of actually being covids a bio-weapon or not real etc etc.

Yup. It is more technologically, economically, and operationally feasible at this point to reverse global warming, stabilize earth, and create a truly sustainable society here than it is to terraform Mars. And we sure as hell can’t/aren’t doing that.

You have to be a complete idiot or believe we’re going to find magical alien technology on Mars to truly believe terraforming it is the solution. Or both, probably lots of overlap in those groups.

I guess elon is on the slump of his drug binge. it should probably be pointed out that he just watched messi, probably the best football player ever, get worshipped like a hero at the world cup. It's watched by literally a billion people so maybe narcissist elon got a reality flash of how insignificant twitter is and that no one likes him.

do remember that right wingers approve of violence towards women so it's less that they think he's being setup and more that they think he's done nothing wrong in raping and kidnapping.
