    Musk is running Twitter straight into the ground. It's amazing, not only did he pay $54 /share for this POS company, he's also making sure that it's worth as little as possible. Self-destructive behavior. It's like overpaying for a house and then making it worse as soon as you move on.

    A few days of Musk ownership and I have come to understand Twitter is not a safe place for everyone. Nor do I care.

    But yeah, at least people can get a check mark and Twitter is no longer elitist. Confusing millions of people and causing people and brands reputational damage? No biggie.

    It’s troll paradise now. Maybe Mar A Lago needs a parody account.

    To be fair, Elon Musk might actually help save democracy by (very quickly) destroying Twitter for us.

    This is easy. Simply look back over the last twenty years. The narrative has never changed.

    'He is greedy'
    'He is a narcissist '
    'He over promises and under delivers'
    'He is not that smart'

    Yes, and the same guy who is always wrong (@Major) is making wrong predictions again. In the same thread where he has already thoroughly embarrassed himself (but never admitted it, of course).

    Major is a bright guy. He tends to be short time frame person and lets his emotions cloud his logic. His premise is good but the logic often gets hazy.

    I understand the concern with Twitter. SpaceX and Tesla are starting to get push back from the government. Now that Musk owns Twitter and opening it up to everyone, he now has the capability to mine all that data in his favor. If I am a Democrat, I should be really worried about this as Musk has spoken very favorably of DeSantis. This will be cambridge analytics on steroids.

    Alright. This was fun for a day but I’m over it.

    Is this trickle down economics? He’s going to tank one of the largest tech companies in a week for funsies.

    Various Musklords, not even a day ago:

    Have to say, Musk's way of doing things is probably better.

    Elon rules and this is the best Elon thread on the planet
