Twitter no longer has a media relations department. The company responded to a request for comment with a poop emoji.
It’s no longer enough for Twitter to go bankrupt, Musk must be liquidated
Financially and literally please. I hear there’s an area with a lot of sunflowers that need fertilizer.
Wait, is that real, or just a joke?
Real unfortunately https://www.npr.org/2023/03/20/1164654551/twitter-poop-emoji-elon-musk
Wow, you heard it straight from the source:
Like his buddy Donald, Elon seems to have a real problem paying his bills.
If we had a functioning government it would liquidate his assets and pay it out to those he refused to pay.
We do have a functioning govt. It functions to make the rich richer and give them all the freedom in the world, including exploiting the workforce in all ways possible. But hey, at least our economy is #1! Rejoice!
Gdp is literally the only valid metric to measure a country by! Woooo!
It really is hilarious how quickly Elon went from a cool guy to being the worlds biggest loser 😂😂
he stopped being a cool guy the moment we could see him. he was the enigmatic batman/edison figure for a while, when most people only knew him by the projects he funded. then he decided he wanted to be a celebrity and as soon as we figured out who he is watching him fail miserably has become a pastime for most of us.
Meh, his base still loves him. Like Trump, this is considered a "smart move business men do" and those getting fucked "are losers for allowing it to happen".
I think his base has shifted, though. Used to be people who were interested in technology, in space exploration, in green and sustainable technology, etc.
Now a significant part of his fan base are people that decided he's their hero after he purchased Twitter and then unblocked white supremacists, Nazis, racists, white nationalists, fascists, conspiracy theorists, xenophobes, etc. and decided to harass, block, and mock middle-of-the-road journalists, national public media, and use all the far right dog whistles and megaphones.
So yeah, he still has a lot of support - but it's not the same support he had 10 years ago.
The same CEO who didn't understand the law when purchasing Twitter, also didn't understand employment law when unceremoniously dumping employees?!
There's a big surprise. Like Iago, I'm about to have a heart attack and die of "not surprise".
Elon and Tesla are notorious for not paying their bills.
I believe its called 'outsourcing creditors to the future', you unbeliever.
He's proving day after day, that no matter how much money he has, he wants nothing more than to be a terminally online shitposter.
Everyone who called him a "loser" in this thread, is 1,000% correct.
I'm really starting to think that Musk deliberately destroying Twitter is not a conspiracy theory.
I mean, with Twitter and Reddit gone, only Facebook remains.
Ah, well, there are also WhatsApp, Viber, Tik-Tok, Youtube, Telegram which need similar treatment.
Of these I casually use YT and Telegram.
The former is slowly being replaced by uploading videos to the platforms they are posted on.
The latter - well, there was a time Durov promised there would be no ads ever, there are ads everywhere now. And technically it's junk (the protocol, I mean, while the QT desktop client itself on the contrary is notoriously CPU and memory efficient for my loads of subscribed channels, groupchats etc ; it does crash sometimes, but no Matrix or XMPP client would simply survive that amount of garbage perpetually updating, so).
I’m starting to think it’s deliberate because I can’t believe his sheer stupidity.
I used to not think it was sheer stupidity, but when he's literally challenging his chief rival to measure up penises, I think it is, indeed, sheer stupidity.
"Yeah, we owe a lot of people a lot of money. Get in line." - Elon, probably...
First Twitter, then Reddit. Wonder when/ how Facebook is gonna destroy itself.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
