Twitter’s Last Gasp
CNN ^ | 11-18-22 | Oliver Darcy

Posted on 11/18/2022 8:42:16 AM PST by Anti-Bubba182

"....A former Twitter executive, who recently exited the company, described the situation to me as a "mass exodus." Asked about the situation, the former executive told me, "Elon is finding out that he can’t bully top senior talent. They have lots of options and won’t put up with his antics."

"They will struggle just to keep the lights on," the former executive added....."

Probably none.

I’m pleasantly surprised to see it’s gone this far with all those people gone.

Put it to those self important go to meeting assholes. Don’t need no stinking HR. Just get the job done and get paid.

It’s the last gasp of Woke Twitter. The renewed Twitter is going to do just fine.

Elon is a disruptor. He’s doing what disruptors do. CNN would benefit from this approach.

Musk did not get to where he is to day by being stupid. This is just propaganda nonsense. He had a plan to clean house and a strategy to ensure stability and growth.

Musk has deep enough pockets to weather any short term nonsense.

I think that TikTok video of a day at Twitter headquarters was the last straw for Elon Musk.

Twitter was already dying. It had the name recognition but it’s been bleeding users for years. Really not sure why Musk bought it.

Sounds like a great idea or someone like Musk. If Trump gets back in he has to reevaluate his appointees and stop listening to so-called “experts” like Crispy Creme.

I was a little worried, but now that CNN has weighed in with their propaganda I am positive Elon is well on his way to Twitter success.

Best way to get rid of the dead weight and start fresh. I’m sure this was the plan all along. They think their sticking it to Elon when in actuality he’s saving the company billions by getting rid of redundancies.

Those who did so can be sued or even prosecuted.

“ Elon is finding out that he can’t bully top senior talent.”

Lots of eager young hungry engineers in India so I hear. Not to mention more than a few conservative ones here in America that got replaced at places like Disney and others. Had to train the replacements. Maybe they’re not as valuable as they think. And what you call talent, I call censoring progressives.
