The only advantage that I saw to Musk acquiring the company was the possibility of him running it into the ground. With any luck, Twitter will go the way of MySpace or maybe even face complete dissolution before the end of the decade; it was already a poorly maintained, advert‐riddled piss bucket before and it’s just been getting shittier and shittier every year.

I was thinking “destroying Twitter may be the most based thing Elon Musk has ever done.” I mean he’s an evil fuck and an idiot and it’s not like he’s doing it on purpose but hey, a broken clock and all that.
Unsure. Maybe he will destroy it, maybe this is like a bailout. Some liberals suggest he overpaid for Twitter. I am unsure if that is copium or not, but he may have accidentally saved it from dying.
I just read that Twitter lost $ 1B in 2020 and “only” a quarter of that in 2021. I’m sure we have different ideas than libs about how a company should be valued, but no way we’re all coming up with $45B for a company bleeding money.
It gets worse though. Since a big part of Musk’s purchase was financed with debt there’s an additional $1B per year of debt service that Twitter now needs to pay. So there are really three basic ways this goes, either it dies a slow horrible death, he somehow magically finds some people who are able to successfully monetize it and stem the user exodus, or his US government and ruling class buddies pump in a bunch of cash to keep it solvent because they need Twitter for psyops and propaganda.
Imo he bought it just to have his own social media platform. What is a billionare today without one? And since he cannot make anything even with all his cash and people working for him, he just bough something big and famous, like a true failson he is.

For such a “smart” business man, he sure doesn’t understand how to run a company without burning through as many folks as possible. Its soo bad at Tesla, they fire folks Monday and Tuesday they’re in new hire training again working for a different contracting company 🤦♂️

He’ll unfortunately live to buy another company to do this to. Twitter iirc isn’t even profitable but is way too important for signal boosting NED funded protests. SpaceX has some DoD deal to basically do Amazon’s 2 hour shipping but for sending weapons anywhere on Earth. Tesla is just a masterclass in ecogrifting, and Boring Company typically has by far the lowest bid for any “mass transit” it bids on, which forces municipal governments to award them the contract even if the product is shit and overpromises and underdelivers.

Piss rat liberals downvoting to cope.
another reason to log out of that site for a very long time
Jokes on you, I don’t even have an account.
Perfect opportunity to strike and unionize
I disagree with Elon. The expectation is that most of them will find a better job after Twitter implodes
