    It just seems like if he wanted to actually save the company by cost cutting, he’d have tried to take a softer approach (not that layoffs can ever be done softly). It just seems gratuitous — like he’s trying to piss off even the ones who won’t be laid off. Idk, probably project a normal mind on the reptile that is elon musk.

      Imagine if this motherfucker shorted twitter stock or has a fuckload of put options and is now deliberately crashing the plane with no survivors

      I'd say no one would be this dumb, but after that weird shit where that one circuit court held that federal departments can't enforce anything, maybe he's gambled on being too big to prosecute?

        thing is that twitter stock doesn't exist anymore - he bought the company & took it private

          We need to consider the possibility that he is both that incompetent and that deluded about his own level of competence.
