He will care as Tesla and SpaceX are his main jobs and source of revenue that allow him to act the fool elsewhere. Twitter and the rest are merely side hustles and vanity projects. If there is a threat to Tesla he will take it very seriously.
Its not a discussion if you refuse to engage tbf. Not being adversarial, just wondering what about him would make you like him.
It's not a discussion now. I refuse to engage because that will lead to a pointless discussion. I am also saying it's a waste of your and my time. I'll say he did this, you'll say he didn't, he is just taking credit...etc etc. You see how that's a waste of time.
Fair enough.
It did seem like he didn't really want to go through with it though. He does have enough money to pointlessly buy a sink.
I'm sure some of his weird nerd following actually argues that point. Which isn't surprising since Musk himself tweeted something to that effect when arguing for why he's actually more aligned with republicans these days (even though he's usually a democrat, allegedly).For a minute I thought that they brainwashed you.
I reported their profile in general so I have to assume that message means they have to change names but maybe I'm optimistic
A lot of Americana think that. Yeah the Republicans have become fascists but gender neutral bathrooms are a thing so they've no choice but to vote right wing.
Saying the internet and social media lean heavily left seems like a bold statement. From Gamergate and Q-anon to 4chan, Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson, a lot of people have been radicalized towards the right online the last few years.
Can't stand this idiot, Twitter should have been heading for more regulation to remove the racists and abusers yet it now appears to be moving in the opposite direction.

Tbh, the politics part is less interesting than the rise of awful awful clickbait:
But anyway...need to fight the woke censorship by communist corporations like google!!
I'd agree that the word "heavily" could be taken with a grain of salt for the reasons you mentioned. I think it might appear that the internet and social media lean heavily left because there is more acceptance of the "extreme left" and their statements than the "extreme right" and their statements.
What are some examples of mainstream extreme-left you believe compare to mainstream extreme-right?
I honestly can't think of what the left equivalent is of racism, homophobia, qanon or anti-semitism. All these are pretty mainstream in popular right-wing channels/pages.
The fact this utter moron is seen as some sort of genius and a figure who's opinion on anything holds any merit is one of the things that is wrong with this world.
Im telling you now. Nothing as relevant and prominent as you mention
The evil fascist wokist left that will cancel you just for being a white male!!!!!
The internet leans left, my arse
Tan suits.
I hate basically everything about social media and the like, but there's nothing I hate more than Youtube thumbnails, it drives me insane.Tbh, the politics part is less interesting than the rise of awful awful clickbait:
Also, I can't get over the fact that some people genuinely believe that the fecking internet leans left, I just can't.

Very much this.
More like wokeforce, am I right?
Should be fun
I remember the day he bought it there were pictures of him having the craic with staff at what looked like some sort of in-office bar. A social setting anyway.
I know Musk is far from alone in this but it must take a special kind of person to do that knowing you're about to lay off X% of them soon after.
Couldn't be me.

I wonder why twitter cant rely on advertisers?
It couldn't possibly be because its going to be turned into a big musky, trumpy, Top G, Yeezyfest that no sane company is going to want to associate themselves with could it?
The worst thing is this thread has just over a quarter of the pages the Epic bacon adventures thread does in 6 months, compared to the Epic bacon adventures' five years. The other one is the better thread.
cant we merge them into one big elon is a cnut thread?
Can one thread contain that much energy?
May as well merge it with the Corden thread in that case. Just a straightforward cnut thread.
