Yeah work twice the amount of hours for the same pay or get a 90 day severance package doesn’t seem like it would be a very difficult choice.
especially if you are a hot shit hardcore coder who can jump to a startup, work just as hard and get showered with stock options and VC cash, vs. working for a company that is bleeding out.
Adding onto what DarthPumpkin says. Elon is taking Twitter down and blaming it publicly on his employees. Those employees need to make it publicly known that it isn’t their fault, to protect their job prospects after Twitter.
However a lot of it was internal, and twitter apparently had a culture where you could openly…
Talking shit might feel good in the moment, but is actually unproductive in the long run.
Musk said he was a “free speech absolutionist” tho, weird!
He slithered his way out of various tubes attached to colonization beneficiaries.
I don’t even want it now and it’s FREE.
Lol the idea that anyone is going to pay for verification or that any advertisers are going to stick around when he stops kicking Nazis off the platform is laughable. I can’t wait to see where he got the money to make this purchase. It wasn’t until after he met with Putin that he stopped trying to drop out of the…
Elon Musk is basically a marketing program for people switching to Mastodon or BlueSky at this point.
So, Twitter is dead, content creators are going to flee, Twitter will become a Q-anon haven, and basically just be another honeypot for the FBI to listen in, just like Parler. Got it.
“Get it? Let. That. sINK in.... No?... Nothing?
*Hands sink to this week’s handler/bodyguard/assistant named Mercy.
“Why doesn’t Nathan Fielder love me? I explicitly requested it.”
- Ole Musky probably
It indicates that he cares more about tending his online cult of personality more than he cares about making a good impression at Twitter. To be fair: it’s better for his bottom line, and it’s a lot easier. Musk’s online fans are exclusively people dumber than Musk, whereas I’m sure Musk is dumber than 75% of the…
My initial thought was “What, so it’s a gag about how it took all his liquid assets and ‘the kitchen sink’ to complete this purchase” or something, but no, it’s even dumber than that.
Look at how self-satisfied he is with his corny joke. He’s beaming, he thinks it’s so hilarious. I imagine everyone else was just confused.
He’s about to take a pretty big hit to the wallet with that mandatory Twitter purchase.
Went to a shop a year back that sold pokemon cards. They also sold Nazi memorabilia in the back. When I found out I told them I wouldn't be shopping there anymore. I was accused of violating the owners freedom of speech for refusing to spend MY money there.
I honestly think the SEC is building a case to bring him down, problem is that it might also take down every other big Tech bro in silicon valley
Yeah, weird how real life is actually complicated, huh?
