Elon Musk Declares He ‘Will Resign’ as Twitter CEO

After saying he’d “abide” by the results of a Twitter poll asking him to step down, Musk says he’ll stay true to his word. But there’s a catch.

BREAKING: man who says a lot of things said another thing.

@RollingStone
He will still control and inflict his poison into the system.
@RollingStone that's absolutely not what he said. And what he said had massive caveats.
@RollingStone We’ll believe it when we see it.
@RollingStone Don't fall for it. Says he'll still be in charge of software and server teams, so he can direct them to do whatever dirty work he wants on a whim.
@RollingStone @donmelton If I said I was gonna fly to the moon, would you print that uncritically? 🙄
@RollingStone No, he says he's stepping down. Big difference.

@RollingStone Bullshit. How many times are you going to fall for Lucy and the football?

He wants attention.
He wants headlines.
He will say any stupidass shit to get them.

Haven't you been played like this for the last 6 or 7 years already?

FFS!

@RollingStone no he absolutely will not step down. Twitmo is his 2020 election! Narcissists NEVER admit when they lose
@RollingStone Snoop Dogg has entered the chat.
@RollingStone he says a lot of things, though mostly it's just "Interesting" or "wow"

@RollingStone yeah too late. I now see that while email and the Web are federations, social media is not.

#Mastodon is a federation which is long overdue for social media.

No #Musk or #Zuckerberg dictating what shows up on my feed.

@RollingStone
I hereby nominate the dusty can of baby corn in the back of my pantry.
@RollingStone he says allot of things
@RollingStone I'll believe it when it actually happens.
@RollingStone but is he really? I read that he will still work behind the scenes pulling strings.
@RollingStone I don't think the dude will abide.

@RollingStone

"Elon Musk is stepping down as CEO of that app "

Elon Musk SAYS HE is stepping down as CEO of that app.

There. Fixed it for ya'.

@RollingStone I personally don't think it matters what he says, he can back track anytime. He revealed himself and everything associated with him will now be tainted.
@RollingStone Putin and Saudis fired him
@RollingStone Maybe, maybe not. Who says he's going to do what he says on any reasonable timeline? Or at all?
@RollingStone I still won't go back to #twitter , I barely used it to begin with, including views. Twitter is still blocked on my computer.

@RollingStone
He's a psycho narcissist, he'll never leave even if he finds a puppet.

Elon Musk tweets he’ll resign as #Twitter CEO when he finds “someone foolish enough to take the job” and then “will just run the software & server teams.”

Mastodon
@RollingStone Elon stepping down as CEO to run Twitter as CEO
@RollingStone I'll believe it when it happens.
@RollingStone not sure which will be first, Mr Sink stepping down or Trump 2024
@RollingStone 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@RollingStone it’s just so he can blame someone else for all the changes he makes.

@RollingStone

I still don't trust Twitter because:

1) Elon is still the biggest shareholder.

2) the Saudi's are the 2nd biggest shareholder & Saudi arabia is one of the WORST OFFENDERS OF HUMAN RIGHTS.

3) JP Morgan and a bunch of people who only look at MONEY have huge exposure ($13B and counting)

4) Elon has factories in China and China IS NOT into ANY SORT OF speech CRITICAL OF THE GOVERNMENT

@RollingStone

"“I will resign as CEO as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job!” Musk said. “After that, I will just run the software & servers teams.”"

Sooo he'll still have his hands in everything - and may still say he can't find anyone to be CEO.

@RollingStone Too late not going back. Elon bought it and he can keep it. Let all the MAGA types yell at each other while it slides into irrelevance just like Trump
@RollingStone can’t happen fast enough
@RollingStone he said he'd leave in six months, when he stepped in. Nothng to do wirh the poll. Don't help create a false frame
@RollingStone Remember, Musky Boy is a LIAR. Even if he steps down as CEO, he is a nasty little man who has the attitude of a little corporal and still owns Twitter.
@RollingStone That headline is premature, to say the least.
@RollingStone. I’m truly astonished at how stupid the US media is. They’ve learned nothing since 2016. No, Elmo won’t give up control of his microphone, he’s just trying to halt the mass exodus of subscribers and collapse of Tesla.
@RollingStone He’s not, though. Never believe a thing he says until you see it actually happen.
@RollingStone he will never resign. His career goal is that everyone speaks about him. Silence would kill his image.
@RollingStone If you believe he’s going anywhere, and will stop having any influence on Twitter, you’re a real dumbass.
@RollingStone this is the same con artist megalomaniac guy who promised Tesla semi-trucks would obsolete Diesel ones and be readily available by 2019. Who promised that Solar City would have revolutionized roof shingles to generate power in 2016. Who sold his non-existent and unsafe full sell driving scheme to thousands of Tesla owners.
@RollingStone yea…I’ll believe it when I see it. He’s having fun burning it to the ground. It’s a toy.
@RollingStone he took a poll but he’s not going anywhere, anytime soon
@RollingStone
Yeah, as soon as SpaceX finishes conquering the whole galaxy. Maybe later.
