Taylor LorenzMusk on advertising
SpaceHobo9000@taylorlorenz guess it’s time to dust off the “there’s always a tweet” format from 3 years ago…
Madras 
@taylorlorenz He just paid all the famous people to fake endorse 😃
John CrispI saw one and immediately told it I didn't I like the.
The same as I now do for all their ads :-)
Peter Yang, MD - Yaz@taylorlorenz Genuinely curious if he regrets everything related to the Twitter purchase and if he still thinks he will somehow be able to salvage the situation vs. taking the loss
Richard Bairwell@hemonc @taylorlorenz Perhaps he's now just using it as a tax-write-off project and once it's been declared bankrupt it'll be taken back by the original people again. Yes, Musk may make a little loss but my impression is that the majority of the money came from banks, Saudi Arabia’s Kingdom Holding Company, and Oracle/Ellison.
@rbairwell @taylorlorenz Financial loss is one thing, but reputationally this seems like it will cast a much wider blast radius than the people who previously objected to his behavior
Lacrymology@hemonc @rbairwell @taylorlorenz nah, he's got the money and that's all it matters in this world. He'll blame it on the previous management, and to the people who matter that'll be enough.
Locksmith@locksmithprime @hemonc @rbairwell @taylorlorenz he does, but that's definitely not what I meant with "the people that matter". I was talking about banks and whoever will lend him money for his next delusion
Conductor@hemonc @rbairwell @taylorlorenz His reputational strategy seems very tied to confronting his critics. His remaining fans and remaining social circle are, I think, quite enamored with a never-back-down mentality.
I just don't think he has a lot of incentive to admit he's made a major blunder and tons of incentive to pretend he hasn't, even as evidence mounts.
flesh roots 
🍕@hemonc
iirc he wanted to back out of the deal because Twitter has too many bots

Tony Hightower@hemonc @taylorlorenz Regret would require a level of self-awareness I'm not sure he has.
mattlqx@taylorlorenz Elon has proven over and over that he only cares about the narrative that suits him the best.
mollysneed@taylorlorenz Money Laundering 101
Seven Costanza@taylorlorenz “I don’t buy ads unless it’s from myself.”
Vinay Aravind@taylorlorenz Elon is under the delusion that he too enjoys Steve Jobs's reality distortion field. But the sad reality is that he has the charisma of a two by four, outside of his (admittedly devoted) band of fanatics.
Stephanie Helms 🏳️⚧️@taylorlorenz “I don’t advertise often, but when I do, it’s shuffling money.”
ADubiousPronoun 
@taylorlorenz this guy just can't stop posting his Ls
IzuLina@adubiouspronoun @taylorlorenz and we've seen it before 👀
Freudian Mistake 
@taylorlorenz my man is doing the left pocket, right pocket game
spider623 
@taylorlorenz what merit? all the companies he CEO got bankrupt, especially after he kicks the founders and engineers that made the products out, when was the last time Tesla madder a new car? That was released, also the quality got down, as 3rd party repairshop in the middle of nowhere down, Tesla are known for bad fit of the parts, compared that with any other car barnd at the same price
rheosta@taylorlorenz he gives krang from ninja turtles vibes more and more everyday…
oarnd@taylorlorenz classic "how it started - how it ends" story 😂
@taylorlorenz and you want to sell advertising. Great.
RonnieW@taylorlorenz
SpaceX bought a bunch of advertising. Purely a coincidence of course ;-)

Tux 
🪿@taylorlorenz Yep, saw that ad myself. Sadly this mean SpaceX is not blocked just as any other account I see promotng a tweet. 🤷♀️
Elon Musk 
Hey! That guy is not me. He is just an impostor who wants to take advantage of my fame.
I am much more handsome. And I have a better hairstyle, btw.
TheAestheticFur@taylorlorenz My man is doing the same money shuffling with his companies as Crypto Bros with crypto coins or NFTs.
Pathetic elongated molusk.
kikyo tsukuyomi@taylorlorenz twitter has no ads lol
Tesla catches fire weeks after being totaled in Sacramento
robotbattler@taylorlorenz He really is the most insufferable of oafs, isn't he?🙄
Anna@taylorlorenz Musk is clueless. He is destroying twitter one day at a time.
Troll accounts have been verified. Grifter accounts have been verified.
Doppler@taylorlorenz
This seems like a crime, or atleast something actionable by shareholders in SpaceX

RRB@taylorlorenz there is also the question of who paid the Tesla engineers
Curtis Bathurst@taylorlorenz This is like when you try to show your dog how delicious something is by pretending to eat it.
Aris Teon@taylorlorenz Elon Musk is a far right egomaniacal pathological liar. Reminds me of someone else ...
Badri O'Nair
Tim Thomas@taylorlorenz soon 90% of ad revenue will be from SpaceX, Tesla and the boring company. Winning!
Liam Lemon@taylorlorenz he is such a moron
g_simmel@taylorlorenz in capitalist muskovia, advertising buys you!
@@taylorlorenz and we don't buy your b.s.
Melpomene
Maurizio@taylorlorenz you know what I love about him? that he is always truthful and coherent with himself. someone you could trust... 😆
RealZackKellyElon Musk tweeting "I have never once picked my nose" as he removes his finger from his nose to hit Send Tweet.
Kim Wulff On MastoDon@taylorlorenz That's why were leaving Tweeter
@taylorlorenz
He is full of contradictions. If you don’t like what he is saying, just wait a minute and you will hear the opposite.

Anon2U@taylorlorenz Most of his ad campaigns seem to boil down to “I say absurd thing people think is weird or cool” and then make a scene
Chazz Michael-Michaels 
@taylorlorenz the real elon follows me here on mastodon
MagicLike 🏳️🌈
Andreas M. Heitmann 
@taylorlorenz Oh boy … 🙄
Stan Fletcher
PCEngine🕹🥷@taylorlorenz So he’s basically funneling funds from SpaceX to Twitter to make things look ‘ok’ on Twitter side. The Twitter take-over = slow train wreck with daily updates
Gezi_and_D@taylorlorenz best part is that he just ended starlink by demanding his workers return to the office and firing the rest.
Silly really.
Jenna@taylorlorenz he is such a bad leader and faker
Stephan Dörner@taylorlorenz Did he delete the "My companies…" tweet? Can‘t find it.
B F Clark 🇨🇦 🌐@taylorlorenz Like the old saying, "All advertising is good advertising". Good, bad, or indifferent is great when it is free publicity. It keeps you, your name, your efforts, your brand, etc. relevant. He really is on point here. Advertising revenue for the site MIGHT come back. Only if he implements measures to mitigate the damage sustained and literally turns the ship around, there may he increase the probability of success in his favor. Time will tell. Cheers 🍻
James Francis Donohoe@taylorlorenz Musk launched someone else's Tesla into space for advertising purposes. #woodyelon is a lying pedo.
