This may have been noted previously, but, Christ, what an asshole.
What is the deal with car manufacturers and antisemetism?
Though obviously, it’s not even close to limited to that manufacturing sector…
As Ken White pointed out, saying “I’m going to file a lawsuit first thing Monday morning!” is particularly dumb when you can now file a suit electronically any time, any day.
Maybe Musk’s lawyers just told him they couldn’t file until Monday so that they could at least enjoy the weekend.
“The split second… the micro-second even!”
Yaccarino will be next, assuring people that Xitter will survive after they do a Great Replacement of the advertisers that left.
I don’t understand why she took the job in the first place, but if she has any functioning brain cells, she will resign right now. That ship is sinking, and it’s going down fast. Before another year has gone by, Musk is going to be trying to sell that platform and it’s going to go cheap.
Maybe she calculated Musk would implode before xitter, and she’d be left running a damaged china shop, without the bull.
If he’s already made such a huge paper loss, why would he sell just because the ship gets lower in the water? He WANTS to have this toy to play with, whatever the cost.
His investors on the other hand…
At this point are they “Investors” or “Hostages”?
Include the Saudis, Qatar, Andreeson-Horowitz, Larry Ellison, and Jack Dorsey, among others. Most of those are almost as problematic as Musk, in their own ways. Or even more problematic. But they’re losing money, and at some point, they’re going to cut the bait, one way or another.
Never go full Ford.
The pivot theory is that he forces the banks to write down the debt so he can get full control. Of what tho…
Thermonuclear law? Strange game. The only winning move is not to be an absolute fuckwit that can’t handle being held to his word.
He may not like the way the Saudis (Prince Bonesaws) go about ‘writing down’ debts.
So what you’re saying is Musk paid an arm and a leg for Twitter?
There is one immigrant trying to replace us that I’m aware of; but I’m guessing that Elon won’t self-deport.
