š• / Twitter / X, the Social Media Platform Formerly Known as Twitter / "MUSK OWNS TWITTER"

  • šŸ”§ At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
My guess is it's a single-member LLC so it's reported on Schedule C. He's making the donation on the company's behalf as its sole member.

However, I thought charitable contributions could only be deducted if they had some kind of business purpose. For example, if you donated to a charity to get name recognition or sponsored a local kids' baseball team.
Nope, single-owner LLC’s can’t put it on schedule C. The owner has to put it on schedule A, which is their individual deduction. C corps can, but I’m not sure what the limitation is.

Either way, an individual can’t pass their personal donation to a business to deduct corporate taxes. That doesn’t make sense. I’m really confused what this guy is flexing about ā€˜offset our business taxes’.

"I refuse to support any organization that hires Nazis."

How is it possible for anyone to be this unironically stupid?

It's most likely that he's just a retard, trying to flex on people without understanding anything.

If it's intentional satire it's sort of clever, especially since is username is "Privatize everything" and he's mad at a private spaceflight company. I have my doubts it is satire though.
 
Worse, he'll just turn off all their Teslas.
Well Apple has left Twitter on its app store with evidence of CP on it, so Apple will have some court explaining to do as to why Twitter is suddenly in violation of its policies beings you are required to use the app store on Apple phones as to not void your warranty.
 
Apple is threatening to remove Twitter from the App Store unless Musk caves to their censorship demands:

Musk is free to turn Twitter into an alt-right paradise, Apple is just as free to drop it from their store.
He can bitch and whine about it all he likes too. Allegedly he’s also been phoning up the CEOs of major advertisers who’ve backed away from the shitshow to berate them and try to bully them into coming back.

Or file a Sherman Act suit for billions of dollars that will go on for years and years. After all even Epic has gone that route and their suit is a lot flimsier.

No, they aren't. As @AnOminous has stated; Apple may well be subject to antitrust rulings if they try to do this, which they would be unlikely to win.

Apple would have to prove there is a large change in Twitter's behavior after the Musk take over, they have no way of knowing one way or another if anything has changed since Twitter is now a private company and doesn't have to release jack shit, but even then Musk is putting graphs showing that there was a temporary spike and that things had returned back to baseline. Once again, most of the media and reports based on Twitter's internal working is speculation, nobody knows the exact figures detailing how much each division was hollowed out, Apple could end up looking like assholes in court because Elon ended up firing half the company which ended up being janitors, cooks, yoga men and HR cretins with absolutely zero cuts to the real content moderation team -- the kind that handles zapping kiddie porn and terrorist threats. We're pretty certain that Elon has discontinued political operators from twisting the site, but Apple would have a really contrived argument that this endangers people.
