Imagine being one of the richest billionaires on the planet and having a 16 year head start and being so wildly incompetent that you lose the battle for ‘best social media app.’

Can you imagine his Ketamine fueled emergency meetings to infiltrate here and change the algorithm so he looks better. What a loser. Money can’t buy everything Champ.
Dear God: he's literally the richest man on the planet. You could do something about this, you know. You've got lightning & natural disasters at your disposal. Pitter Patter, let's get at 'er.
I find this type of smuggery to be missing the point so high and wide… he won. Trump is elected. Otherwise sensible people are spouting fascist ideas and statements claiming as common sense. You think he cares it cost him $44b? He’s made that 5x over already elsewhere. We need to follow the ball
Give it a year until Tesla follows in Twitter’s footsteps is the least popular electric car on the planet - only to be used as a fleet vehicle by government departments forced to buy them by the new corrupt king and his cronies. Anyone holding that stock for the long term must be high.
Hey God, I'm an agnostic but... A little help here getting rid of Dr. Evil (elon) and I'll stop saying 14 yr old Mary was impregnated against her will and unknowingly by an entity as old as time! *wink eink nudge nudge*
For me personally, I dropped all Meta apps after reporting dozens of sponsored advertisements for Ketamine, MDMA and Crack... Every single report came back "this doesn't go against our community standards".
They block me sharing from news, but they'll gladly take ad money for illicit drug ads 🤣
🤔 Tells me you didn't spend your day of rest at the horse track. Because being the first horse out of the gate never assures you're the winner of the race.
I came here from facebook, their new rules meant that I would soon be locked out of my account, so I deleted it. Hope that blue sky will very soon have links local to my area.
Truth Social has never been popular even with RW, twitter was, why not buy an app and turn it into what Dumps was meant to be. I’m betting Dumps will die and X will be it. They’ll their best to invade here but we have to be aware… resistance, world wide… just my ramblings… have a nice day.
Imagine being one of the richest billionaires and all you care about is being selfish, making more money and being cruel to people who are different to you.
It’s a shame, there is so much one could do being one of the richest billionaires.
Just because someone is a 'rich billionaire' doesn't mean they're smart. Just because someone inherited family wealth, and got lucky with a few financial entanglements and purchases, doesn't make them smart. Truthfully, the war should be on the 1%, not the MAGAts.
Not only has Musk succeeded in turning Twitter into the cesspool it has become, he's allowed Tesla to lose the first mover advantage they had in the US EV market. It's sadly only a matter of time before he barbeques a bunch of billionaires on one of his rocket joy rides. IMHO 🙂
They're tuning the knobs to make the app less shitty, but it's too late and Bluesky has completely innovative features that would take months to implement while he's bleeding users
What do you expect from someone that stole the concept in the first place - it isn't like he came up with it, so why would he be managing it properly against competition?
when you associate the best social app with a spoiled brat mentality. It's a real turn off for me. I don't want to have anything to do with this kind of person he is a take take take me me me. Not to my liking.
In 2024, Twitter is expected to have 335.7 million monthly active users (MAU), which is a 5.14% drop from 2023. This represents a loss of 32.7 million users since Musk's acquisition.
In 2024, only 19% of the US population reported using Twitter, which is a 30% drop from 2022.
Imagine being the richest man in the world and you’re addicted to your own social media platform and crave the attention and adoration of incels and the low intellect.
Also, Elmo forced out the original founders of Tesla with daddy's South African emerald mine money, then spent a decade convincing everyone he started it.
He bought into Tesla with money he made from PayPal. Of all the bad things you can say about the guy, he isn't a nepobaby. He and several friends shared an apartment to start PayPal because they were so broke. There is video of them back then and he wasn't rich. He wasn't all that weird then either.
According to Elon’s biographer, when he was young, Elon used to get into a lot of fights with other school kids. His father, in contrast, specialized in emotional and psychological abuse.
It felt great shutting down my X account this morning. The only thing I'm going to miss is replying to Elon's posts with my usual response of "GFY Elon."
Musk bought twitter for I don't know what reason other than supporting tRump, & has ruined it. A founder of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, went to the Bluesky board, but left because of disagreements. But Jay & others are doing a fine job with Bluesky, I think! Musk=selfish racist spoiled brat Oligarch.
Trying to charge people to use Facebook is really not going to work and enshitifying the free tier is just going to make people leave which will kill the revenue. They were making tonnes of cash with moderate ads but it's so aggressive it's unstable now.
He bought twitter for power and power alone. It got him into the white house. The richest man on earth who thinks suffering people need to suffer more.
I didn’t say I knew what he thinks. I stated he bought twitter for power and control, it’s obvious he did. But go ahead and bootlick my guy. He also said, on camera. That people are going to have to suffer, you being one of them. Put that in your pocket and take it with you.
Only because, in both cases, driven by self interest, he made it what he wanted it to be. The clue’s in the name, social-other people, society. FB, think about its roots, great-now look at it. Narcissistic self serving sociopaths shouldn’t own social media platforms.
No he actually wasn't. He had a democratic views at one time. He became a baby after his company got hit, and production slowed up because of the pandemic. Freaking weasel now.
It would best be noticed by the wealthy toddler that trump does not share power! Musk will be gone soon enough, just like Cohen, Kelly, Comey, Scaramucci, Priebus, Tillerson, and most of trump’s attorneys.
I find that’s often used in a “he’s playing chess while we’re playing checkers” manner. As in, “he’s autistic, so we just can’t see the genius.” But honestly, I don’t think he knows how to play either game. I feel that his handling of Twitter was a disaster.
Wealth doesn't represent quality. billionaire hire stuff to run business. If i were buying twitter i would never change name it's brand . X sound like p#rn site
Losing $20B and turning a world-wide public square into a failure is small campaign donation for the expected kick-backs during your outsized unelected role in politics.
It seems possible that social media has a sweet spot: too small and they're too small, but once they're too big there are too many antisocial dicks (and/or grifters, Nazis, etc.). So maybe we're doomed to have to migrate every few years and restart the loop. (There's also the problem of funding.)
The point of buying Twitter was to buy the US election. It was not to own the best platform. If he wanted the best platform, he would have listened to advisors, people more experienced, people with expertise. Instead, he made it a beacon of propaganda, misinformation and unaltered, unmoderated hate.

Wasn't sure if you were referencing Trump or Musk. Turns out I was wrong twice 😆

Dipshit Elon ran Twitter into the ground in less than 19 moths.

I promise to become a theist if you make Twatter and FB collapse and go bankrupt.
Thanks,
Jax.

It literally bought him a president.
Privilege and entitlement will only get you so far
🤔
Or in his case, $44 billion and counting...DOWN.
He may be wealthy, but obviously that didn't take smarts, just guile
Wildly incompetent is an understatement.
Evolution via Natural selection.
Thanks anyway for "something you didn't do"
wink, wink 😉
Amen 🙏🏼
I know how he nepo'ed his money.
#creeper
Enshittification
Then hitches himself to donnie do-wrong
Impossible. People have a mix of unknownable from the outset (you can “assume”) and often hidden motivations.
You just can't allow it.
That is not free speech.
There's a difference between free speech and propaganda.

Wait.
Did you do this?? I won’t be mad if you did.
Musks ego must have taken a huge hit.
Let's all laugh at Elon Musk. 🤣
These are the people they want handling our money? if left to their own devices, They wouldn't be able to afford the light bill at the WH!
Dog got it right.
IT STARTED NEAR THE TOP
