Opinion For the richest man in the world Elon Musk acts pretty dumb

[blackheart]

He's autistic and people think anyone that's autistic-coded are automatically super geniuses.
On top of being autistic I think it's fairly obvious that despite coming from immense wealth, he was abused pretty badly by his father. And I think that abuse has mentally and emotionally stunted Elon.

He is literally something akin to an autistic man-child King. His ego is incredibly fragile. He doesn't really believe in anything. And I don't know if that's narcissism, or if that's again rooted in his stunted development. Because 12 year old boys don't really believe in anything either.

^^^ This is how you say your are against Free Speech and an open Marketplace of Ideas without actually saying it. X provides an rare open Marketplace of Ideas and should be commended for it. Prior, we have FBI Agent in charge of the Bay Area, Elvis Chan crushing Free Speech on the platform. Elvis works closely with Wray. It was bad for America to have the Federal Government involved like that.

Your last sentence is questionable when we look at the advertisers for the cable news networks. Fox beats the shit out of them in "eyeballs", but is relegated to a shitty pillow guy and Jenny Craig, while CNN / MSNBC have: Phizer, T-Mobile, BMW, AT&T, Jeep, Office Depot, and Cadillac.

We are going to develop a dual economy as the Establishment will attack Free Speech and opposing views at every turn. You support the Establishment and that's fine, but don't pretend they are about Free Speech and that X is something evil. That's pure propaganda.

Musk defends enabling Turkish censorship on Twitter, calling it his “choice” [Updated]

Musk said he cannot go beyond the laws of the country to defend free speech.

Sure thing buddy <Lmaoo>

Isn't he like Trump, playing with daddy's money?

Having a son who's autistic, I have no doubt Elon's on the spectrum.

Tons of people are "on the spectrum". I have 3 employees that are, and they are brilliant. They have come up with solutions that blew past everyone and had many detractors, but I've learned to let them go a bit to see how it plays out. I am rarely disappointed. I would guess Elon is "on the spectrum" and it probably allows his mind to be as agile as it is.

 

[Rational Poster]

I'm so old I remember when the Limp wristed lefties used to love Elon but that was right until the time he didn't agree with everyone of their viewpoints...some of them are even so delusional they say he's a "Wacist" for whatever that even means anymore. It just makes me like the dude even more.

Back in reality most adults started to turn on Elon Musk when he called a cave diver a phile because he saved children stuck in a cave faster than he could invent a robot submarine to do it.

He probably fuck you up.

I'm petrified

Imagine how whipped you are to hate on someone for not abandoning his beliefs for advertising dollars.

Except he approved over 80% of censorship requests for foreign governments.

Twitter’s Elon Musk Defends Decision To Limit Tweets in Turkey During Tight Presidential Election

Critics say the social media platform allowed the Turkish government to silence criticism.

He is just like everyone else who says one thing and does another.
Derp I am a free speech absolutist, unless you are a dictator or can help me sells Tesla's then I will censor any post you want.

Imagine how whipped you are to think some guy has beliefs because he is rich and a trust fund baby.

The majority of his lefties that turned on him can't even remember him joking around saying that.

Welcome back Brackis

You guys can keep saying that but it doesn't make it true. And I don't know why I bother replying because I don't think it's about whether or not I'm actually Brackis. You just want to say it to say it.

I stopped posting on my last account in 2019. Brackis got banned either late last year or early this year. There is one poster in here who knows who I am, and it's not because I told him but he's just autistically smart. I could just outright tell you what my last account was, but that takes all of the fun out of it. There's also a mod that absolutely fucking hates me. Thankfully he's not as active in the war room these days, but still I'd rather let sleeping dogs lie and not dig up history.

That specific incident has been cited in numerous videos from left wing commentators criticizing Elon Musk. Videos that accumulatively have millions of views. So yeah, I think lefties remember it pal

Also "I just called the rescue diver actively saving children a phile as a joke bro" is both hilarious and deranged. Keep coping pal.

 

[Jack V Savage]

If an advertiser is attempting to control content on your platform, that is censorship.

They have every right to ask to censor and they have every right to pull their sponsorship legally if their demands aren't met.

It's not a question of legality but a question of right and wrong. I don't like censorship. I don't like the right or left being censored. If Elon started censoring trans affirming Tweets, I'd be just as pissed off as I was when Twitter was censoring covid or Hunter Biden tweets.

Calling stuff that isn't censorship "censorship" is not something you do if you actually oppose it. Musk has aligned with the gov't to shut down criticism, and you seem to support that, also.

You can say whatever you want but the minute Elon bought Twitter and said he was gonna gut it and let "Right Wing" people actually have voices on the platform again the limp wristed lefties turned on him for messing up their echo chamber. And when it comes to jokes nothing is off the table and it has nothing to do with "Coping" Pal.

Should he have done the opposite, to where the result may be no one in that country can use twitter?

Disney will burn a movie franchise to the ground all in the name of "Wokeness" and bullshit "Diversity" and they are one of the most left leaning companies that exists.

You didn't answer what I asked at all.

You deflected the question. Why shouldn't Disney be able to tell an advertising partner to fuck off? Why do believe a company should be forced to advertise on a platform they think is harmful for their business? You are acting like Disney has no input with companies they are doing business with. If Disney is paying X a fuck ton of money to advertise their product, then of course they are going to tell X to fuck right off when they are running a business model that has seen a 13% user base drop since last year. They are just going to reallocate their money elsewhere because they aren't obligated to pay Elon Musk money lmao. That's called freedom and that's something corporations absolutely have as well as individuals.

 

[kahiljabroni]

What did he change exactly?

He exposed how Twitter and other social media outlets worked hand in hand with Intel organizations to censor.

And it's more about what he'll do in the future. When the left needs to blackball a story completely from the internet like they did with the hunter laptop story, they won't cooperate. So even if the left gets cover from all the TV networks.... and the rest of the internet... there will be one place that will allow the truth out.

Not a hard concept is it?

Did you see where someone was arguing that advertisers should be forced, by law, to advertise with twitter?

 

[Jack V Savage]

I'm thinking of the Media Matters thing also. No Musk stans have spoken out against that. But I think he could have handled that better too (that is, I don't buy his framing it as a two-choice thing).

 

[Jack V Savage]

How are advertisers affecting free speech by telling him they don't want to spend money on a platform that's going to go extinct because it's filled with people spewing repulsive bullshit?

Seems like that's free speech at work. They don't want to spend money on Elon and his nonsense driving people away from his own platform.

I know it's a hard concept for right wingers to grasp, but not wanting to spend money advertising on a platform that's hemorrhaging users is pretty fucking normal for any business.

They wouldn't give a fuck if Elon was bringing in more eyeballs and users.

Yeah, these guys don't understand that freedom goes both ways.

Am I the only one who feels like musk just came out of nowhere? Like he just appeared and everyone was supposed to know him

The website has become objectively worse off in just about every single metric since his takeover:
-millions of users have left
-the company's value has shrunk 75-90%
-the platform has lost its iconic branding
-the platforms revenue base has vanished as the website has become flooded with neo nazis and white supremacists
-the platform has removed many of its popular key features
-the top replies to any popular post is now flooded with bots who pay to have their replies prioritized

Literally just from a basic user's point of view, the platform has become much worse off in every way. You've just drank so much of the cult Kool aid that you're willing to shrug off virtually any relevant data point
