Elon Musk didn't purchase Twitter to make money.
Infact he risked his life to save the civilization by reinstating free speech for the public.
(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Musk was not wrong but I’m still shocked that Jack Dorsey sold it to him - in fact, insisted that Musk buy it when he tried to back out.
From memory...
Twitter was 16 years old, but had just two profitable years.
Elon paid a total of $44 billion, including TWTR stock that he already owned, plus TWTR debts that he inherited.
He could have started a direct competitor for $1 billion, and probably have been profitable by Year Three.
The amount he paid for Twitter was completely insane.
Jack Dorsey:
A. Weird
B. Knew the details of the financials
c. Could have been tired of running the place.
Only Elon Musk could hVe gotten away with it.
What about Jeff Bezos? He controls Amazon. A big impact on our economy. That's about it.
Yes. He could have started X.com. But no one would go there.
My impression was that he just wanted go to an island in the Pacific and do some acid.
He didn't want to do any work.
Seek help, and a new “Hat”. 👽
Yes, what Musk did was what was needed. People have to be able to communicate freely with each other.
Who gave any government the right to tell the people what they could say, thus what they could hear?
He could have paid 1/4 as much. And still gotten ripped off.
Some good points there Gary that was a dark period.
Horse puckey. Elon Musk purchased Twitter to tank Truth Social. He has only slightly restored free speech. There are a lot of people who came back only to get banned again for being politically incorrect. Elon is a Chicom agent.
Rubbish,
Elon Musk is censoring Matt Taibbi now. That’s why Taibbi does not post very much to Twitter any more. Elon canceled Taibbi because he uses Substack, which Elon sees as a business rival so he has attacked anyone prominent writers who use it for their websites.
There’s no denying that Elon loves the Chinese communists. He even wrote an article for their censorship agency.
He is owned by the Chicoms through and through. They have him by the balls. They control everything he does.
If we’ve reached a stage where so many people have turned off their personal bullsh1rt meter and are tasking their marching orders from strangers who speak to them from a box, civilization is already lost, regardless who owns twitwitter.
Can he afford to buy Alphabet and Meta too?
I don’t believe that for a femtosecond, ESPECIALLY when it’s spoon fed to me.
Case in point: SpaceX.
What?
I like Ted and all, butt you are kinda beeing being weird
I got banned the other day at ‘X’ for making a comment about Kristi Noem killing all those animals. I ended up creating another account.
