Thanks! Fuckface has gone off the rails taking on Disney.
Thanks, appreciate you!
Billionaires truly believe they deserve our money. There is no need for earning because they see themselves as owners of it all from the start, entitled to fuck
Vote with your wallet is only ever said to those whose wallet is thin.
And those with the money to vote with their wallet, it often happens through political bribes, leagal or not.
And here in Sweden he is pissy that the workforce has rights as well, and I predict he’ll be even more pissy to realize that his handling of the entire situation has made other people less in favour of switching to a Tesla. Solidarity is big here - even with the general population of right wing voters.
Really love to hear that! Back around like 2016-2019 I loved the idea of switching to a Tesla. Couldn’t afford it but always thought it was something to strive for. Well, that is no longer the case for me and I actively encourage people to shop other EV’s if they’re set on them and to avoid anything with his name tied to it.
I feel dumb promoting the dude with a low effort meme, but hearing replies like this I feel makes it worth it.
I’m still hoping that DMC comes out with an alpha 5 variant I can afford
Wait, not that free market!
That ol’ opt-in mixed economy be sound reaaalll good right now…
“I have no problem being hated” says the petulant man child that’s definitely handling it
I mean he has all but announced the fact Twitter will go into administration soon.
He literally said this latest move by advertisers will tank the company. He then blamed them for this.
My guess is he wants to get the narrative going that other companies killed twitter and not his mismanagement of it.
It’s their fault that they’re hurting my business. They’re leaving the platform I destroyed while insulting them. They need to stay so they can prop up more of my bad financial and social decisions! What a bunch of assholes!

It’s the leopard’s ate my face business strategy. 😆
They’re not even demanding anything.
They haven’t said “tone it down and we’ll come back” they just said “goodbye”.
How is that blackmail? There’s nothing he could do now to appease them (I guess maybe step down?)
cocaine is a hell of a drug
Don’t forget the ketamine!
There’s a reason why most corporations try to keep a squeaky clean appearance to the public. They’re trying to make money. It baffles me why Elon thinks public perception doesn’t apply to him or his corporations. It’s like he thinks the world is comprised of halfwit tech bros that will lap up any old bit of garbage that comes out of his mouth. Yes, freedom of speech is vital for democracy, but not everyone is required to agree with you or pay you money because you think you are right. A critical short coming of many narcissists.
You see, market works :)
Don’t fall for it.
Rich people promote neoliberalism not because it works, but because they get rich off it’s failure. The “free market will fix it” is just another of those lies. The most hated companies in the world continue to bring in record profits.
X continues to operate despite their frontman being plausibly a neo-nazi and undeniably a fuckstain. Whatever damage has been done wasn’t due to the public, but billion dollar companies.
The free market doesn’t fix shit, regulations do. Everything else is just a pantomime.
Free market does not suppose to fix shit. It supposed to select the best products for consumers and the worst to die.
Is that why Edge, Facebook, AT&T, Bing, gmail, Tesla, and a hundered other examples are still around even though they are objectively bad products compared to competitors?
Or is it that multi-billion dollar companies subsidize them because they have near monopolies on the space through exploitation and shady business practices including being publically subsidized loss leaders until they got a stranglehold on the market?
The natural steady state of the “free market” is monopoly. Look at the computer hardware and tech world, and the internet. The closest we have had to a completely free market in a long time. There were practically 0 rules and regulations around them for dozens of years. What happened? Companies all bought each other until there are oligopolies or monopolies in each market, without exception.
Why does the market reward anti-consumer companies like Apppe, that use their dominant market share to intentionally sabotage their own products to make people buy more?
For example, why does Apple fight against Right to Repair? Is it for the consumer, or is it for profit?
The market isn’t supposed to select for the best products for consumers, but the most profit, period. That’s why medicine is marked up skyward, because customers cannot not buy medicine.
And it doesn’t
