Look, there's a lot of anger and dissent in the Fediverse about the launch of Threads, but can we all at least agree that it is going to be utterly hilarious to watch Musk pretending he's not not crying as the last shreds of the platform he paid billions of dollars for go swirling down the toilet?

@AbandonedAmerica ha that's one way of looking at it if you can't see the end game. There's a clear through-line:
1. Buy twitter
2. Challenge zuck to a cage fight
3. Clone zuck with dna you grabbed while he's choking you
4. Log in with biometrics with your clone and ban all betas from fb and Instagram
5. Profit
It's all so clear when you hear it spelled out I know
He's a moron.
I thought he was intelligent for years based on his supposed accomplishments, but then he started opening his mouth and he's just a fucking moron with money.
@AbandonedAmerica yes, we can absolutely agree on that. 😂
Totally off topic but I love all the dope stuff you post. Much respect <3

My friends... less of the ableist language please, the correct term is "cringe-tent" as in "threads is full of a disorganised mass of people who think they are funny trying too hard and posting cringe-tent". 😀

Look like the work of the Gregg's chain bakery to my inexpert eye. That would fit with the username and sad failure to be funny.
Someone explained irony to "lads" once and its been pretty middling since.
@AbandonedAmerica @tom4okstate
That's fair. 😀
@AbandonedAmerica
I don’t think Elon Musk cares. He is so rich that he can lose every dime he spent on Twitter and not even notice it.
Musk didn’t buy Twitter to make a go of it. He bought Twitter to destroy it, to end open discourse. Best case for him and his billionaire backers, it becomes a #Republican #Nazi platform, worst, case, it craters.
Either way, he has more money than a billion other people put together.
@AbandonedAmerica
I completely agree that his ego is as fragile as it is massive.
But I disagree as to his motives. I’m sure his he-man, stable-genius billionaires of the Fourth Reich club strokes his ego far more than common peasants like us laughing at him could ever damage it. Z
oh no, he is going after fediverse next
@bigheadtales @AbandonedAmerica lmfao.. he clearly noticed. Already forget how hard he tried to back out of the deal 🤣!?
And I think it’s funny that Dorsey started up Bluesky to try & remain relevant as well. They’re all unhinged imho & time is marching on without them finally.
@benreaves @AbandonedAmerica Very good point!
I’ve come to the conclusion over the years that one must be a sociopath in some form to amass billions of dollars in personal wealth without giving most of it back in philanthropy.
@AbandonedAmerica @alysondecker
"Not the great sales pitch" +1000. Though in a more honest world, that would be Twitter's slogan:
Twitter: come be attacked by strangers! to make money for Elon!
