Some theater so he can pretend he is doing his fiduciary duty.
The censorship will continue...bottom line.
Speaking truth to leftist power is still banned.
If effect, Twitter is government owned now.
So, no sale.
If they refuse Musk, they will be subject to huge lawsuits from existing shareholders that can bankrupt the company, the CEO and the Board. Also if Musk follows through with his threat to sell his shares, the stock price will drop suddenly. It is possible that the GameStop brigades may step in, buy enough stock to give Musk a proxy win. Either way Twitter is in for some interesting times. The Left, in order to preserve their stranglehold on free speech, will do everything they can to stop Musk.
Didn’t ‘vanguard funds management’(IIRC) somehow manage to obtain a higher percentage of shares than Musk has? And the branDUHn admin has started some sort of witch hunt on Musk now as well? He must be over target.
So, it’s not really a business. It’s about controlling speech, stopping the voices from calling out the left, controlling the narritive.
The funny thing is that the liberals DO NOT recognize who is supporting Twitter staying the way it is. Saudi’s (who they hate and even support the Iranians), Blackrock (who is making housing un-affordable for most Americans) and Vanguard (investment group whose goal isn’t earnings but control now). That’s a ‘basket of deplorables’ if I have ever seen one, gathered together for nefarious purposes, to allow propaganda to continue un-fettered. Supported by Federal Government in the background. I mean, these kind of conjunctions remind me of 1930’s Germany............
Not an outright no
This is perhaps different-
If the work of Twitter is mostly creative “Art” rather than hard “Science”, if the folks that do the work don’t want to work for Musk, they quit, and the company collapses.
On the other hand, if it’s mostly on auto-pilot now that the big technical hurdles have been overcome, if all the Geeks leave, one could hire general duty techs to keep it running.
Will be really interesting to see if these Geeks are any good, or are they over paid tech-mules just good because they work at Twitter.
Musk and that early gang were the exceptions.
The new crop? not so much.
Buying time, trying to come up with a palatable excuse to reject the offer.
May twitters reign of censorship come to a screeching halt with a buyout!
