Musk now claiming his OWN POLL, run on a platform that HE OWNS, was rigged against him.

Beyond parody.

@juddlegum When he says "bots" he means "my enemies"

"It's a figure of speech Morty. They're bureaucrats, I don't respect them."

@juddlegum

Maybe if he hadn't fired everyone, security would be better.

@juddlegum Wake me up when Elon achieves sentience.
@juddlegum
I have more followers than HarrisX...
@juddlegum
What a delicate fleur. Maybe, it's you, Elmo. Just maybe.
@juddlegum I find it puzzling that someone with his experience does not understand selection bias.
@juddlegum If you can't trust internet polls, what can you trust?
@juddlegum I see the potential for a lot of bias in this poll simply because Harris is randomly sampling and then inquiring whether the respondents use Twitter or not. If he stays as CEO, he can kiss Tesla goodbye and Twitter will still lose users and $$$
@juddlegum and he claimed he got rid of the bots.
@chaos @juddlegum
Between accept he is not loved, and admitting he is incompetent, is hard to pick the best choice.
@juddlegum the polling methodology that site used def skews above 50 lol its home phone bullshit
@juddlegum Mr. Arrogant clearly did not expect to lose that poll. Another red wave that never happened ☺️
@juddlegum
"well, I bought twitter claiming to fix all problems, and as God is my witness, I will continue proving myself inept !"

@juddlegum

Itsy bitsy. So not enough to change the outcome. Got it.🤪

@juddlegum Good grief. I can’t wait until he is “the former guy” as well. Insufferable.
.@juddlegum When one thinks Musk or those like him are being honest in wanting even negative feedback, one should remember when Mao had the Hundred Flowers campaign:
For no other reason than to trick his enemies into revealing their dissent so he could know who to jail and kill later. Which he did.
@juddlegum narcissist do that. fkn snowflake. #Trump2.0
@juddlegum I missed where he questioned the results of the polls unbanning Trump and the other nuts.
@juddlegum in other words, he didn’t deactivate enough accounts before the poll took place.
@juddlegum He does it for the attention. That's all this is. It strokes he ego. Even when people hate him, theyr'e still talking about him. It doesn't matter what people voted, it matters to him how many people voted in the poll. That's his only concern.
@callmejake @juddlegum classic malignant narcissism. Unfortunately this is a trait susceptible to treatment
@juddlegum Sort of a trumppy vibe. Is redo the new right wing mantra? Sad.
@juddlegum The answer is probably more straight forward - "National" vs "Global".

@juddlegum  BTW, HarrisX is not affiliated in any way with the Harris polling agency. It is, in fact, a market research firm: https://harrisx.com/#about

But, yeah, let's believe that The Stable Boy Genius rigged his own poll. That's just totally credible.

@juddlegum Also exactly how his political faction views all elections. They’re only valid if they win.
@juddlegum Tesla stock price falling further as he descends into paranoia. He is now even attacking some of his biggest bag holders lol
@juddlegum -- The reality is that, even if Musk installs someone else as CEO, he still owns the business, and he can ride roughshod over his CEO's decisions, if he doesn't like them. His virtue-signaling poll solves nothing.

@juddlegum The most ridiculous thing is the moment his preferred option starts losing he starts talking about bots. And talks about redoing only polls that went against his wish.

His polls are like rigged elections in a dictatorship - the only outcome he accepts is the outcome he wants.

@juddlegum Next week, he'll blanket ban everyone that voted against him and say it was because they were bots, lol.

@juddlegum

I wonder if Musk was just going to continue running polls until he got the answer he wanted.

@juddlegum Who is HarrisX? Who were they polling? The cons are very effective at using tools of "manipulated democracy."
@juddlegum what a sad narcissist he is. And LPL at them saying their poll is scientific as if that makes it so... They asked users if they were on Twitter? Ok

@juddlegum He's seriously pitting "61% of Americans" against "a majority in a poll of *Twitter Users*? I thought he was supposed to be intelligent.

To be honest, I'm surprised the poll went against him, if only because most of the people who hate him have left now. If he can't even win a poll when his enemies have all left the stage, he's in real trouble.

@juddlegum We've seen this song and dance before.

Poll goes the way he wants? "Vox populi, vox Dei."

Poll goes against his wishes? "Let me pick my own voters and do it again."

#narcissism

@juddlegum @paulbiggar see, we were in no danger of him stepping down regardless of the poll outcome 🤣
@akunuri @juddlegum Haven't seen! Link?
Elon Musk on Twitter

“@Harris_X_ @Twitter Interesting. Suggest that maybe we might still have an itsy bitsy bot problem on Twitter …”

Twitter
@juddlegum Well heck, the poll about letting TFG back on Twitter was scientific enough for him. No bots there! Think maybe Elmo expected this poll to be a huge affirmation of his Excellentness, maybe threw him for a wee loop when it wasn’t? This man is a walking pestilence.
@juddlegum wouldn't you know it. If you don't like the result, attempt to discredit the process. Where have we heard that before?
@juddlegum Basically Donald Trump but with more money
@juddlegum every journalist should leave Twitter, not report on Twitter and see how long before he has a full meltdown tantrum
@juddlegum Online, secret-ballot polls should not decide Twitter policy. They r dependent on the security of each device the voters use. Twitter is a private co, but if it is, as Elon says, the public square, then no way online polls should decide anything. Working group that was *funded by an Internet voting promoter*, Bradley Tusk, to develop standards 4 Internet voting concluded they could not do it responsibly.

@juddlegum I don't know much about bots, but can bots actively vote for a specific result?
@juddlegum he seems to be unaware that not only Americans voted on his twitter poll, when he compares his results to the ones mentioned? Best regards a Norwegian who voted 👊

@juddlegum has he disclosed to advertisers the number of non-bot users he thinks are on Twitter? Or is he still selling ad space on the basis of user figures which he believes to be fraudulent?
@juddlegum At this point I hope he stays. It will only damage his reputation and businesses even more.
@juddlegum to the surprise of literally fucking no one
@juddlegum he who controls the bots controls the polls.
@juddlegum The nationally representative poll doesn't include Twitter users but does include Ford, GM, Stellantis, their dealers, suppliers, and employees, and the UAW.
@juddlegum yeah, sure, Jan. It’s the bots… blame & point fingers at bots. Keep doing that…
