Elon: Twitter bankruptcy is not out of the question. Also, department heads resign.

I mostly use discord and IRC, my friends have started talking about mastodon though.

Why should someone care about twitter exactly?

They’re just angry that Musk can burn the whole thing to the ground and still walk away with more money than he can spend in a dozen lifetimes. Envy.

He’s a left libertarian. Why would “the left” be his enemy?

In a overzealous bid to “own da libs” republicans backed the perceived enemy of their enemy, only to find out he’s not a conservative or really interested in their bullshit beyond taking their money like every other American business man. Trump did the same thing to them, only worse. This looks like it might be a pattern. You guys okay over there?

That response had nothing to do with the question

The question was about twitter and you made some sort of unverified assertion about how people may or may not regard Musk as a person. Those are different topics.

No they aren’t. Note that none of the criticisms are directed at Twitter. They are directed at Musk.

They are directed at the change in twitters policies and other poor business decisions. That’s not Musk.

I have to admit though, watching this train wreck has been entertaining and if twitter goes, there’s other social media out there.
 
It seems like eons ago that all our resident right wingers were trolling about how Elon was gonna make the libs cry. When he looks at how much money he's going to lose because of his ego-driven purchase, he'll be the only one crying.

Play your little word games. This thread exists because the left hate twitter and musk and want to celebrate destroying him.

But you're here, in this thread, denying that the left are obsessed with Musk and Twitter.

Hilarious.

It exists because Musk fired half his staff and tanked the confidence of the business community.

Yes, It's a Twitter/Musk rage thread. Enjoy the euphoria!

If simply bring in this thread is what you consider to be sufficient evidence of denying that the left is obsessed with Musk and twitter, then why are you making this denial?

How did you manage to so profoundly confuse those two very different emotional stages?

They do? I guess your experience is different than mine. The left still post on twitter; they just wish it wasn't becoming a social media shithole. Musk is in over his head -- even pretty conservative financial gurus realize it.

Wrong. The left want someone who knows how to run a ****ing social media company to...run a social media company. What we deplore is a bullshitter who poses as some kind of wunderkind ruining a platform that has value.
