The strategy was to tank global leftist talking points and disperse the community. His donors are mega rich saudis, russians, and others who benefit from right-wing ideologies being implemented. A blind man could see this before the sun is up.
That and reddit which is why they shit the bed the exact same time. It's coordinated.
Also probably why Threads ever existed in the first place, in hopes of killing an uncontrolled venue in its infancy
No it’s not. The free money dried up and Reddit wants to go public. It’s no more nefarious than that.
People don't get how much the modern internet grew because of shitty interest rates.
I’ve been saying this for a while and have been called a conspiracy nut; or at minimum that it’s “unrealistic”.
Well. Sweet vindication.
You got vindicated by a random user on a platform full of people with rather extreme views. If you say that anywhere else - you'll still be a conspiracy nut. It's not clear what he's doing or why, one can only guess (or create conspiracies if you will)
Likewise. The guy is obnoxious, but you'd have to be pretty dense to believe he wants Twitter to succeed by any conventional metric.
His donor was himself, Saudis only made up about 4% of the investment. He's not making money off ruining Twitter, he's just an idiot who got lucky in the dotcom bubble. Stop giving him so much credit because you like conspiracies. The evidence here is some MAGA nutjob sent Musk text messages... really?
The musky chodelet continues to surprise no one.
He wants trump elected again. Which would be an existential threat to the USA.
It would be the end of the USA as we have known it.
Have to say, the first 4 seasons of the Shitshow were pretty epic. You just have to watch it from a safe distance, such as 3000 km or more. If making 4 more seasons costs one country, I’m not entirely sure if it’s too much or a bargain.
One man's epic is another man's loss of 10 years off of his life.
Yes. I’m aware that if you’re not watching it from a safe distance, it’s obviously not going to be very safe or enjoyable. My condolences.
Bit dramatic, no? It'll just be a few years of catch-up... AGAIN
Can someone please straight up murder this shithead already?
Why don't you buy a gun and do it yourself?
Wrong continent.
