Twitter Death Cult
Reminder that he's still trying to turn Twitter into a clone of the one successful project he's ever been involved with because he's that unimaginative, but he almost killed that one too.
He wanted to name paypal to "X" even after every test audience thought it sounded like a name for a porn website and threw a big tantrum when they went with the name paypal lol... then he insisted they migrate all their servers from Linux to Windows NT4 until the board fired him for being an idiot
Is this the most openly fascist thing to normies he's said?
I feel like for me it was him saying "We Need a New Sulla" while referring to himself which sent me the final "nutcase fascist" vibe to me, but unless you are a Roman history nerd I feel like that's way too obscure for your average Twitter user.
This is the post you show any remaining Musk stans in your life.
they just want to be wherever they aren't invited so they can ruin shit for everyone else
they have like half a dozen right-wing crank twitters of their own where they can do unlimited slurs but if they aren't making other people miserable while they do it it's pointless
Matt Levine continues his run of being the writer who best keeps on top of Musk’s bullshittery:

Things are going great at twitter!
This is amazing to me; this is a carefully phrased statement released by whatever fragments of a PR department twitter has left, and it's just not able to disguise the loopiness with corporate-speak. These are the kind of people who can reframe eradicating indigenous peoples as "revitalizing deprived areas with new investment", and they can't make Elons flailings sound anything but insane.
If you, a corporate communications professional have to use the word "extreme"*, you are in trouble. That is a scare word, and your job is to soothe your users, your board, your investors and your advertisers.
"While this work will never be done" = "this chaos is not going to end any time soon" = RUN AWAAAAAAY
* barring the use of XXXXtreme Flavor, of course
This is just the "moments" feature they killed not long ago, moved to a different place on the UI and now you have to pay to use it.
Just put it all behind a pay wall Elmo and free everyone already.
so it seems that some of the blue check simps are starting to realise that they can't pay to make their posts worth reading and are giving up on, leaving only the most pathetic ones still paying

"if I get a blue check I'll have a million followers in no time" is very "if I buy a rolex I'll be just like a rich guy" energy
but rolex sells a million watches a year for 10 grand a pop, elon is getting $4.75 after app store fees. he should have made it at least a grand a mo.
steal gasoline with one weird trick car owners hate!
lmao literally just advertising crime
gas siphoners, collapsible weapons, secret fire starters, car door unlocker wands, MyPillows, only the best advertisements on ElonTwitter
Is that a fact?
"Twitter is not the right place to seek information during an emergency, Dutch politicians and a prominent online group said on Wednesday, following an incident in which citizens were directed to the platform for updates during a large storm.
...
"You might see one tweet with great information from emergency services, but maybe there are 10 tweets that Twitter prioritizes which contain completely false information," he said."
Twitter not suited for emergency communications, Dutch say after storm
Twitter is not the right place to seek information during an emergency, Dutch politicians and a prominent online group said on Wednesday, following an incident in which citizens were directed to the platform for updates during a large storm.
Twitter paid Wachtell a huge bonus for beating Musk in court, and now Musk is trying to clawback that bonus.
It's genius. Sue the lawyers that are now your lawyers only because they beat you in court and forced that dipshit to buy twitter.
He is so mad they beat him
And lol that Trump successfully called a shot in not returning to twitter.
He has made his own little fiefdom, pathetic and small as it is. There was nothing really for him to gain in going back to Twitter and being potentially under someone else's control once again. It would also be a tacit admission that his network failed, and Trump wasn't going to let that happen.
So we’ve gone from Musk was forced to buy Twitter after desperately trying to get out of his agreement, to Musk wanted to buy Twitter to make it better actually, to now Musk invented Twitter...
thinking positively of elon musk is a degenerative condition it seems
Elon: "please post your videos on my platform where nobody will be able to find them and they will immediately be flooded with blue-boosted crypto scammers and schizos in the replies."
Lol that dude isn't posting shit to Twitter until Mush puts his John Hancock on a massive contract and the check clears. Mr. Beast is gross, but he knows which side his bread is buttered on.
Jesus christ, this is like reddit meltdown levels of posting.
What a sad man.
Apparently twitter is the new wingnut welfare
Very cool to start paying the worst posters for their dogshit takes, way better than paying severance.
data $0 (we aren't paying our cloud suppliers anymore)
rent $0 (we aren't paying our rent anymore)
krassenstein payments $24305
utilities $0 (see above)
someone who is good at the economy help me budget this. my company is dying
suing 4 john does
lol good luck
we will answer the questions. What questions? the important ones. they’re easy to answer we just haven’t asked them yet. we will find out what questions to ask. we will find the questions to the answers to the universe, and then we will be the ones who have all the questions
hey look a nerd reference, give me 44 billion dollars
