𝕏 / Twitter / X, the Social Media Platform Formerly Known as Twitter / "MUSK OWNS TWITTER"

you dont blow 44 billion on a company acquisition to then do low level e-begging like that lol
There have been dumb as shit business mergers/buyouts in the past, the big one for me is AOL/Time Warner which they lost billions due to the dot com bubble bursting and ended up terminating their merger like 3 years after it happened.
 
Can someone explain why people are so butt hurt about the no self promotion rule? Practically every website has that it seems, because if you want to advertise, you should pay for advertising. Like the level of salt seems beyond "Well twitter always allowed us to do this and now they aren't" butt hurt
Well a reason for some people to be upset is that as perhaps ridiclous as this sounds, some people who make things on the Internet rely entirely on growing their presence by spamming links to their social media pages. Effectively they become advertisements for themselves. The dime a dozen OnlyFans girls on Twitter come to mind here. Without having the ability to do that, in their mind I imagine they feel their growth has been effectively limited and are irritated because of this.

short answer: we are poor
Long answer: We are poor but, Twitter's appeal as a public figure's marketfront but agree with The Line. (that phase ended)
that it was bait to promote twitter & collectivize power & consent under massive loss company paid by ad revenue.(youtube again)

Because they are faggots who actually use twitter like a large chunk of their life is dedicated to social media they probably spend unhealthy amounts of time online.
 
yeah but seriously, grifting gullible internet rightoids for patreon bux and youtube sponsorship deals is a bit below elons pay level

I don't think he appealed to the "right" as a way to make money or groom a user base he can milk, although looking at how many of his orbiters bought a Blue subscription, you might come to that conclusion. The pandering to the "right" was done because it's an easy way for him to generate publicity and outrage. He knows there is a crowd out there who will gobble up any kind of information and spread it like wildfire if it confirms their bias.

Not to mention he tried to weasel his way out of the Twitter deal, but it got denied in court. Now he's stuck with it and tries to make the best of it by doing the same shit he did to Tesla, finding a niche group to pander to and build a continously expanding infrastructure of products for them to attach themselves to.

Disney/Fox is easily the dumbest merger in recent memory. Basically 70 billion dollars to get the rights to the X-men and Fantastic 4 back, plus the Fox back catalogue for their shitty streaming service.

This Twitter buyout is objectively pretty dumb too… at least from a financial perspective. And clearly even Elon realized this, considering how hard he tried to weasel his way out of it. But it’s worth it for all the hilarity it generated.
 
There's a decent chance Elon will allow the Jew that grilled Destiny of all people, for HOURS, for being too hateful because of a few gamer words in the 2010s... to run Twitter after he has his childish fun with it. JFC

PS; you cannot increase the "amount of love" in the world you fucking lunatic libs.
The world was never at peace. The resources are limited. We're multiplying like rats (yes, Europeans no longer, but we're talking averages).
War and tribal conflicts can be attenuated, but love will still not increase. The world runs on resentment and competition.
We don't need love, we need technological progress to get off the planet, spread like the disease we are and colonize everything in sight. And even then, with all this space, we will STILL be at war, I guarantee you that.

OMFG...

I don't know, this seems like it could be related to Trump.
Oh Christ, don't you fucking start.

I do love the impact of all this on the smooth-brained.

These people are still so frighteningly stupid that they think an issue like that can be solved simply by throwing money at it. Even if it were physically possible, he could have given everyone on Earth enough money to buy a Happy Meal.

One.

That's it.

Ever.

Off topic, but what is the extension that shows the "Normal" and "Satisfactory" labels? Is it some bot detector thing?
