Ah, Elon Musk. He tried to be the Henry Ford of space travel but instead became the Liz Truss of social media.

He "did it 4 da lulz" but you can't find that tweet because he deleted it. Luckily there is an archive of his deleted tweets. https://polititweet.org/tweet?account=44196397&tweet=1591327015810269185 We should all be grateful that it wasn't the other way round, though, otherwise we'd all be cowering in our cellars while white-hot chunks of rocket shrapnel spraying nitric acid and hydrazine rained down from above. @m So reusing ideas that were dismissed in the 1950's and were ruled out? @m I think itβs time to stop joking about it. He and his investors may think they can crash the world economy - especially if the US defaults in Jan. They all have one thing in common: an end fiat currencies. Itβs worth considering that Musk - an irredeemable man - actually has a plan and isnβt ONLY incompetent creep. @Alisca So far Occam's Razor would suggest that in this case he is just an incompetent creep. It's not 12-dimensional chess, it's just biting off way more than he can chew but being too arrogant and self-absorbed to admit it. @Alisca And it's not that it isn't awful - thousands of people have suddenly lost their jobs because a spoiled man-child can't cope with being told "no" - but joking about it seems a good way to cope. @m He is not much different than Henry Ford, considering his fascist tendencies. An oligarch nevertheless! @m I don't think Twitter is going anywhere. If anything, Musk will walk away after it tanks and when the old employees come back they will clean house and kick many of the fascist accounts off because Mastadon is kicking Twitter's ass right now. @m Is there a validated lettuce account over there? Someone should troll him with one of those. @m you're being unreasonable. #Elon popularised the #fediverse more than anyone ever in the history of mankind! π |
