Wow, def didn’t say it went south after taking over. Went south after initial offer accepted and that set up a whole dynamic.

Too many people have given Elon a pass. Don't give him a pass.

He's a marketer, not a founder or an engineer. He didn't found PayPal or Tesla; he bought into them early. He's good at selling narratives and equity valuation for perpetually unprofitable companies.

Everything for him is a narrative. His green revolution was a narrative to sell more cars and get more subsidies. His bitcoin purchase was to gain appeal among bitcoin/crypto people in a bull market. And he shilled doge like a dumbass. His SpaceX narrative is to get money from the government.

His rooftop solar thing was an outright scam; the technology isn't ready and went nowhere because of that. His full-self-driving-in-an-intermediate-term timeline was a scam, and is going nowhere because of that. He makes scams to draw people and capital in, because for him it's all about narratives and equity valuation.

And then he dug unproductive holes, suggested unproductive hyper-tubes, built meme flamethrowers, for what? It's a narrative, not a business. None of this is real productive shit to make peoples' lives better.

His latest "we need free speech" narrative was a scam too. He tapped into something real, which is what marketers do and why it kind of worked. Yes, we need free speech. Yes, Twitter had censorship issues. He saw that and jumped on it maliciously rather than productively.

But what did he replace it with? He replaced it with arbitrary journalist censorship about his private jet, arbitrary censorship of Substack, selective Twitter Files release, won't talk seriously about any of his China connections because Xi Jinping fucking owns him economically there like Jack Ma, has his balls firmly in his grasp, etc.

Elon's playing the narrative, the anti-woke meme of the day. He's a master meme-momentum-player. Don't fall for it.

I used to want a Tesla when they were newish and still hyped but after all the dystopian shit I've been seeing lately I'll stick to a "dumb car"

I love Elon and want him to succeed. Doesn’t mean I agree with everything or won’t call out. He does same to me.

Yah but personal opinions ≠ company opinions, if apple officially stated they were investing in btc think of all the people not already in the space they hold apple in such high regard yk. It would definitely be a change of pace orange pilling people 🤣🤣

Someone there does.

NYT twitter account is here. There goes the neighborhood. #[0]

I opened Twitter and immediately regretted it. Back on here now.

There’s certain people that will argue anything and miss the entire point. You my friend are one of those people.

I’m sure no developer at Twitter bought doge before this went live. I’m sure no insider trading went on..

Promoting an unregistered security token. I’m sure this will end well 😬

USD is not controlled by the U.S. government, unlike Yuan, where CCP can print it as it wants.

The backing of USD is the high-tech industry and military power of the U.S.

Yuan is a garbage coin printed by CCP at will.

Dilute Chinese deposits.

Those who owe money and those who save money are robbed.

It is super printing yuan.

No, the banks shouldn't have been allowed to commit the fraud of fractional reserve banking, the ponzi scheme of fiduciary media, to print specie in the first place.
