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

Hardline Traditionalist said:
Sure, you could argue that Truth social is nowhere near as valuable as X due to its smaller audience, but we're talking about speculative price here, and DJT(Trump Media & Technology Group)'s stock has been growing in the last couple of months, seemingly with Trump's growing odds of getting re-elected, and it's now worth $10 billion.
Meanwhile since Twitter had gone private, it no longer has a stock value, but it's been estimated to be worth $9.4 billion according to an investment group that has a stake in it.

I understand the ridiculous made up numbers behind this idea.

Somebody's made up valuation of X versus the made up stock price which does not reflect reality either. Stock values are not tied to the fortunes of the companies the are listed under in any way shape or form, despite what market watchers and gurus and investment firms want you to believe. See Gamestop for a perfect example of that.

But Truth social has 600K users and X has 600 million. X is a lot more valuable, although it undoubtedly wasn't worth 44 billion in stock buys.

I disagree. It's difficult to value Twitter like you would any other company because their value is tied to an unquantifiable asset. Owning Twitter means owning the power to shape public perception on at least a short term basis. There's a lot of people on the planet that would value that power more than XYZ billion dollars if they could attain it. There's also the argument that it holds value as a weapon due to the role MySpace and Facebook played in toppling multiple governments during the Arab Spring..

It's not worth 40 billion to someone that is buying it as a financial investment with the hope of a return. It's potentially priceless to someone buying it for personal power. Like most things, it's just a tool, and the good or evil of it is exclusively tied to the person wielding it.

It's ok when they do it. They are just wanting to ensure a fair and equitable election, while we are fascists who tried to overturn secure election results.

Double standard? Yes, but they wouldn't have any standards otherwise.

i remember back in 2020, people were laughing at trump supporters because they didn't accept the election. we're told "SUFFAH NAHTZI"

now, kamala gets BTFO'd by the regular working american because we're fucking tired of it. we're tired of the biden/harris adminstration. i guess giving out free money and legalizing weed didn't do fucking shit huh

It happened the first time too. Trump said that if he didn't win the election was fucked with. Turns out that's not possible! Then he won and the left spent four years claiming that the election was meddled with.

I'm not going to sit and say the election got rigged but I will say that I think this was "God's Plan". Trump didn't need to win covid because He wanted to show us that "oh really retard? you think biden is going to help? alright, hold my beer" and decided to punish us

now since we've realized the error of our ways, He granted us Trump. I'm excited for the next 4 years. I really hope this brings a new change for America.
