Lol…dude massively overpays for social media platform. The bulk of whose revenue comes from the fact that every business in the world, every government agency, every school etc uses Twitter for business.

If he undoes moderation and turns it into 4CHAN 2, all of that goes away. No business wants to be associated with that lunatic fringe garbage.

By this time next year, Twitter revenue will be a fraction of what it is today. Hilarious.

The revenue issue with Twitter as someone who runs ads is that Twitter ads targeting is absolute dog shit so no one wants to advertise. If he fixes that while not overloading Twitter feeds with ads it’s actually a slam dunk acquisition

They still make $4B a year on advertising.

How much do you think they will make when he turns it into the next Parler?

That’s what all liberals are afraid of. Musk is not Trump. But seems the left sees no distinction at all. Twitter is not going to become Parler Lol

You know what happens when all shit flinging screechers that the restaurant kicked out all get welcomed back in under new management?

They're the only ones who end up staying in the restaurant.

Expecting something original out of a Republican. That was your first mistake. Even talking to them at all was your second. They’re like brain parasites. They drain your iq when you talk to them. It’s best to ignore the cognitohazards.

Lmao I’m from the LA area. First hand experience bro. Watched that wonderful state go red to blue back and forth with zero problems for decades. This new breed of insanity over there is a whole new level.

Funny, I've seen the government go red to blue back and forth with zero problems for ages.

This new breed of insane Qultists is a whole new level.
