LOL... is he hiding cause of an exodus, or because of the bot farm he ran for the elections?
Nazi, who inherited his generational fortune through slave labor, makes people uncomfortable. They leave. Nazi lies about being weird and/or a Nazi.
Insists being a Nazi should not influence anything and demands people and ad money returns.
How long until he sues users to return like he is with advertisers?
Probably in 2025 when he moves all government communication to X because "it's more efficient".
This just in, lying piece of shit liar lies about something again. 😆
lying piece of shit liar lies
I feel like you're trying to imply something here...
X is done.
Yep. Fortunately for Elon (and, you know, fascism) he doesn't need it any more. For Elon, it is already 'Mission Accomplished'. The richest, most thin-skinned losers on Earth already control the biggest economy and the biggest military. What more could that shitstain hope to get out of Twitter?
Well now he's calling for a new election in the UK (presumably to put the right wing bac in) so looks like he's not happy with just proxy ruling America.
Haha right you are. It is in his nature, I suppose, to grasp and grasp after already being the richest person in history. In a better world, we would put people like Musk in a nice, humane institution.
He’s not the richest in history. Modern history, sure if you count excluding inflation. But when people like Mansa Musa existed Musk has quite a ways to go. Hell even Carnegie’s wealth eclipsed Musk if you’re talking purchasing power.
Musk has now surpassed Carnegie. You are right about Mansa Musa (for now), but the gap is closing. According to google today, Musk is at $334B, Carnegie peaked at a modest $309B, and Mansa Musa had about $400B, though there are quibbles about personal wealth vs. kingdom's treasury. If you want to compare Musk and Musa, I think you could reasonably add the GDP of the US to Musk's fortune, since he is one of the puppeteers behind Trump. All figures adjusted for inflation, by the way.
Or a nice, sharp guillotine
Well, you have to remember, he's an entitled NepoBaby manchild who grew up rich off an emerald mine in Apartheid South Africa, failed upwards into every position he's ever held after blowing shit tons of money into failing companies, claims he knows more about manufacturing than anyone else despite his products getting recalled almost weekly and openly flaunting safety standards over the color of safety gear, and just overall is a massive dweeb who shills failed crypto scams and political grifts over on the Social Media platform he spent Too Much Money™️ on.
So yeah, of COURSE he thinks he can shadow-run 2 governments at once by funding Fascist takeovers. He's just that stupid and entitled. And when it all blows up in his face one day, all I will do is laugh.
And he’s dancing around Ukraine and Putin. This guy is so entitled.
It served its purpose.
Oh I hope this is true.
In the future I hope they do studies on what percentage of nazi content is necessary to destabilize a platform and get an established base of regular people and companies to flee.
To hear it told on Bluesky, it's the better blocking tools and the culture of "we don't have to put up with these assholes."
shrug
I've been off Twitter for years and even before that I probably posted less than a half-dozen times per year. I mostly prefer subject-based social media (here) over identity-based, but I'm looking to surround myself with people who talk about something other than politics because the last Trump presidency I just couldn't handle the constant tide of horrors.
I just need somewhere to escape all that and if not, I'm going to be in a really mentally unhealthy place for the next four years.
X never was. Twitter is dead though
don't look guys! I totally did not piss my pants!

Trump won the election, this gereatric nepo baby will be well paid for his services
Twitters is a just a pokemon card for him and he used it well.
Now do this to Tesla. Make owning a Tesla make you a pariah.
It already does.
Sorry to people that haven't sold theirs yet.
Decent first step with the Cybertruck. Though he botched it and instead of making owners pariahs, they turn owners into clowns and lacerated patients.
Being a Tesla owner is brutal because neither the left nor the right respect you.
Gotta get one of the "I bought this before we knew Elon was an asshole" bumper stickers.
Obviously only works on a car that came out before we knew Elon was an asshole
There's a guy in Hawaii selling "I bought this before I knew Elon was crazy" bumper stickers for $10, and he's already sold over 10,000 this year.
Release the X files, Elon.
I used to like that show :(
At first, the air of mystery suggested hidden depths, but increasing exposure revealed that it was all just woven from thin air and would routinely come out with increasingly absurd stories that contradicted previous statements.
Also, the X-Files.
I never really understood twitter. Feels to me like it's all about following personalities in a poor format that doesn't cater to discussion. I've had an account since early, mostly for testing twitter integrations for work. I haven't even bothered to log in for a couple of years.
I logged in yesterday just to deactivate my account.
I think it really only made sense to me when it was SMS social media.
Can't remember which phone I had but for something like this it was neat.
kek
topkek, even
Elon Musk before: "Oh, these old Twitter executives were so dumb. When number go up, you've gotta show it everywhere!"
Elon Musk now: "Number not go up? For cripes sake, don't show it!"
Over a million people joined Bluesky after the election and seem to be using it. Also a lot of news & media companies have moved over too. So I would assume that at least that many users have disappeared from X or their activity has diminished. On top of that all the bots have gone home now the election is over so the amount of activity must have suffered. And Bluesky is basically old Twitter so people are settling into it and liking it.
I would advise anyone who still using X to give it a try. And if they want to use X for whatever reason - uninstall the app, install Control Panel for Twitter into their mobile browser and browse that for a relatively bullshit free experience - no ads, no algorithmic lists, just what you subscribe to.
All of the numbers are fake anyway. You can just sit there and f5 the page to get views on your own tweet lmao
Elon's lost the plot. It's a joy to watch.
Implying he ever had it
That's part of the joy, he bought the plot and still managed to lose the plot so quickly it's easy to argue he never had it to begin with.
He paid billions to play himself.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
