:kitty-cri-screm: love me
I mean we all knew this was a matter of time right. Why even bother buying the website if you don't get special posting privileges
Elon threw away billions in yearly ad revenue for $25 million in Twitter blue subscriptions.
Priceless.
the fact Elon has a $45B shitposting budget is a great piece of rhetoric
Elon forced a room of precarious folks with H1B visas to help him feed the void in his soul.
He's doing a lot to deter future generations from wanting to be billionaires. What a joke oh a person.
He can have anything he wants and he wants online validation.
It makes me proud to know I have never typed twitter.com into any browser. Maybe I missed some good times but at least I'm not attached or invested in that shit in any way.
It was good to use when shit hit the fan in the news, but it doesn't even do that well anymore.
There was a 10-15 minute posting delay when news broke about one of the balloons being shot down.
CNN had the story before Twitter. Which makes Twitter pretty much useless except for fandom and parasocial interactions with celebrities now.
Elon probably looks down on the average person but still wants their validation in the form of likes and replies on his tweets. Very strange.
If you were empty before having billions of dollars, having billions of dollars won't change things.
yeah but money has diminishing returns in utility. It's one of the inefficiencies of capitalism we don't talk about much because it's by far the least sympathetic one
capitalists don't actually get all that much out of their relentless extraction past a certain point. Their exploitation unlike a feudal lord is not limited to merely what they can actually use and or enjoy
they're just taking surplus value to take it. Jeff Bezos for example cannot in any meaningful way experience the diference between Amazon profits with people allowed to take bathroom breaks or forced to pee in bottles
It's something I've never understood. Like, if I ever got to the point where I personally had millions of dollars, I'd just immediately retire and enjoy being able to do whatever I want for the rest of my life.
not that strange he's got a pretty sad life he has to spend all of his time being Elon Musk. He's 100% brought it on himself but people like this are actually kind of pathetic.
In a similar way to Puyi even people like him would be better off under communism
remember the other day when Elong made that stupid change to block counts, absolute vs percentage? this was predicted in that thread
rookie move they should have got thousands of bots to view his tweets. Real people will just clown on him
Not mine, I dont think I have him blocked either. Either adblock gets or twitter stopped with 'for your interest' suggestions.
Unless these people actually folllow Musk, in which case, what do you expect.
There was a story a few months ago about people who had blocked him suddenly seeing his posts in their feeds anyways.
