My prediction is that #Twitter gets sold very quickly and without notice or warning to a large tech firm for pennies on the dollar who will fold it into an existing piece of their stack. This feels very much like a #Microsoft integrates Twitter with #LinkedIn kind of play.

#ElonMusk can use the 10s of billions in losses to avoid paying taxes for a very long time. Also a bastion for leftist thought and organizing will have been killed so he comes out a big winner. Positively Trumpian.

@bflipp why do you think Twitter will be sold?

@bflipp why lose real money to avoid paying some of that in taxes? Its not real estate so he can't have paper losses due to depreciation. It seems like you come out ahead if you make money and pay taxes on it

@bflipp The problem is that he bought Twitter to try to make himself the center of attention and to "pwn the liberals" (not to run a business). I don't think that he gives a damn what that costs him. I'm guessing that he is going to ride this ship to the bottom of the ocean.

@bflipp at least the ‘mask’ has been pulled off to an extent. Cold comfort but I am confident something else will emerge until that is quashed as well. Which is why ultimately decided to land here. Seems like the safest bet at least.

@charleijeanr2 The only safe social network is one not tainted by billionaires or capitalism. Welcome comrade.
