Hyrax Attack! posted:Yeah, weirdo has owned one of the largest social media companies for less than a week and has already used it as a megaphone to promote a false story that the near fatal attack on one of the highest ranking members of a political party he dislikes spouse was because of a gay affair. He deserves zero benefit of the doubt and people should not use his products or work for him even if that causes temporary inconvenience. Deactivated my account feels good

Yes the paid spox going to Palm Beach is definitely saying "how it works" and not astroturfing the poo poo out of the "evil fed" narrative the handful of actual billionaires living in palm beach have been pushing for more than a few years.

Blame Biden Jesus loving Christmas do you sleep every 3 years? The NY post and fox are all spinning up the outrage machine over a tweet giving Biden credit for loving with social security. That moves a consistent red base of old fucks to the polls and phones and retweets that are happening within the thread. This announcement from the KC Fed shooting it straight being someone who's literally taking checks from Palm Beach, right before election season. That palm beach crew, rip in piss Epstein, have packed the courts to try and control any blatant crimes the fed may be able to prosecute. They astroturf "police approved" candidates in small and mid level elections that just happen to be associated with white supremacy whoopsie. They then astroturf the complaints against said pariah. They bought all the small papers reporting on police corruption. they want to control more of the government to defund and destroy it because they are already rich and don't need the government stopping them from creating their own fiefdoms.

Oh weird how all these big companies with massive catalogues of user information are getting bought and gutted for profit. I'm sure they're just whacky billionaires making bad bets and not intentionally trying to silence critics by using copyright law, then gutting their former competition make big tax write offs for their personal Super PACs that are always deeply conservative.

lightpole posted:A good part is his money and everything is so stupid Tesla stock is getting crushed, which he will have to sell if he wants Twitter to continue as a going concern, further driving down the price. Theres no genius here, only completely loving stupid. He bought at 54.20 and that 4.20 alone cost him hundreds of millions for a stupid meme. Again you're presuming his money works like yours and mine when the motherfucker has billions. He literally loses no sleep over the money figures, because he doesn't plan on making the money in the first place. Dude made his billions off of investing in moving money digitally, including cryptocurrency which is actively financing Russias invasion of Ukraine. That's not weird at all, especially if say, all that Tesla green tax credit money was being siphoned off as he established market dominance by being first and shutting down domestic competition.

And if you don't think Elon musk is intentionally misstepping, consider how "he just wanted to" was enough to exonerate Tom Barrack (who can't be tried for the same crime again now). https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/jury-finds-trump-friend-tom-barrack-not-guilty-foreign-lobbying-lying-rcna55257 quote:Barrack, who served as the chairman of Trump’s inaugural committee, was charged with acting as an agent of a foreign government without prior notification to the Justice Department, a violation that carries up to 10 years in prison. In addition, he was charged with obstruction of justice and lying to the FBI about his UAE contacts during a 2019 interview with federal agents.

Oxygenpoisoning posted:I have always wondered if he’s actually a good investor or just incredibly lucky. Like Zip2 and X.com sucked, but it allowed to get into PayPal, which was revolutionary at the time. He jumped on Tesla and turned a bullshit quality product into something people with more money than sense loved. SpaceX and OpenAI are fairly great because he’s pretty hands off, despite his title of founder and chief engineer. Then he goes and memes himself into Twitter and publicly burns it to the ground. I think he thought he was actually good at software engineering instead of being ahead of trends and able to throw ludicrous amounts at money to corner the market. maffew buildings posted:the twitter situation should answer all your questions about if elon is actually any good at investing He is not even a software guy.
