Buys Twitter; blocks President
ChloThBandit
This didn’t age well.*
Demo7
The retweets. That's letting people who love to use twitter tell other twitter users that Musk loves twitter?
ChloThBandit
This didnt end well…
FoxGodRecords
Oh, about tree fiddy…
abraxasfury
April 2022 Ol' Musky actually tried to buy Twitter
semtex94
Where's the floundering companies and poorly built cars? What about the hypocritical hatred of public transport? And the childish insults?
DickDastardly404
even "geniuses" make inane tweets, that's nice to hear I suppose
TacoFox
He buys twitter and cancels trumps account...
ererr
Ol' Musky, what a guy.

“$200?” “Sounds reasonable, great, okay.” (slides money through window)

Has twitter made a profit yet?
khora
No

Twitter - or shitter as I call it - is the worst social media ever. So many ruined lifes and careers.

Facebook is worse
FacelessPotatoPie
Twitter didn’t ruin people’s lives. It’s the people on twitter who ruined their own lives.

2060 headlines: Mars president Musk tweets....

How about three fiddy?
Thecooljonny
You run a tough bargain
BigJB
Funny until the headline “Twitter headed to Mars”.
LastEverUsername
Hey, I'm from the future. You'll never guess what happened!!
Skizzlesnap
I would celebrate their journey.
SexMonster42069
Good, keep all those Trump tweets away from society.
NotRainman1344
Has nothing to do with trump but y'all still bring him up. Kewl virtue signaling
SexMonster42069
Trump is the only reason Twitter hasn't folded yet. They are incapable of making a profit. Also Trump is garbage & I'll say it everyday.
inquisitivefluff
That might be an improvement
SomeGrayFox
Each tweet now takes between 4 and 24 minutes to reach mars servers and between 4 and 24 minutes to be displayed on your followers timeline.
GetlnLoserWereGonnaOffendEveryone
Going where it should.
Spfeel
Who is he? And why do you all love him
RussianJudge
The human embodiment of the bringer of the end times, son of satan, the antichrist. He's great
Morrigi
CEO of SpaceX and Tesla. Pretty cool guy.
skellington01
He's a true nerd like us, but with 20 billion dollars. Also he ships things to space. That's why.
schmooz
*plz buy it and block trump *plz buy it and block trump*

You know in movies how the populous all sings the praises of the rich guy who is saving our lives but is secretly a villain? Weird, right?
BloodyTanookiSuit
He'll welcome you into his lair Like the nobleman welcomes his guest! With free dental care and a stock plan that helps you invest!

I'd like to refer to the story about the villain wrangler that shows what happens when bad people have a good objective. Take musk for
ChildOfThanatos13
Elon can be my villain anyday. Hmmm daddy...
usersubbordercontrol
Wrong rich guy ruining us that people thought was good. You're thinking of orange wig orangutan
blargnok
Look, he's either Batman or Lex Luther at this point in my life I'm good with either.

Goddamn. If only ol' Musky could be like the Koch Brothers instead.

I'm kinda ok with a villain saving our lives. Better than the current situation of our trusted rulers actively trying to destroy us.
GeneralAfrica
THIS!!!
Allofyoush
With villains like these, who needs heros?
TheAlviss
And not even trying to hide it anymore.
FranklinComesAlive
Which of these rulers are trusted?
ILogInToUpvote
Generally speaking, politicians voted into office are supposed to be trusted to do what's best for us. That's not the case of course.
valen00
Shut up you, don't make me feel bad
HungarianOxPenisInABlender
Well Twitter isn't a profitable enterprise so it be stupid
SnipersAngel
Hehehehe
whiteanon
It's profitable in the same way every website makes a profit now, user data. Your location, what you're interested in, basic identity $$$
Mechwarrior719
And bots. Lots of bots. Like at least 60% of 'users' are bots
FlatPlutoSociety
They do generate revenue like that, among other ways, but the company has never actually turned a profit: https://secure.link/UdbI0Ta7
HungarianOxPenisInABlender
Thanks that's what I meant.... I would say other small businesses probably make more money off twitter...
EngineerZero
Is it not making profit cos it’s not making enough money, or is it using tax loop holes to “not make profit” and then not pay tax?
margarath
Nope, straight up not making a profit
JohnnyDeformed
So it will fit well with Elon Musk's other companies then.
Hardalor
He's the rare type that looks at the profit tomorrow, not the profit today. He has the money and investors to pull it off, too.
Hardalor
If more major players would start doing that, we could see a lot of GOOD(some bad...) changes.
wabitgirl
Right, which ones? PayPal? Tesla?
whatshappeninghere
Tesla is in the reds again
Hardalor
I also think SpaceX actually makes profit off the contracts. They're quickly becoming the way to put payloads in orbit. Not if only ...
Hardalor
my Overwatch teams were that interested in payloads.
TheThirstyMoose
Tesla has yet to turn a profit they're basically kept afloat by investors who ate banking on it turning a big profit in the next decade 1/2
TheThirstyMoose
That being said, it's a nice bit of foresight if it does pay off as getting established in automotive sales is extremely hard
khora
They were profitable one quarter last year, to prove that they could.
E53e
Tesla juste spent a lot of money recently, they're not so rich rn I think
khora
Companies with good governance are not rich. They give money to owners when they have too much. Ask for money when too little.
ArchonIlladrya
Gotta spend money to make money.
E53e
True, but you take a risk in investing. I have no doubts they will make money though
freedomfight
So they are making investments and jobs? Sounds like a terrible business model
E53e
Not what I meant
Hammertulski
Eh, if you purchase assets that could be profitable, you aren’t suddenly poor - you’ve just risked your wealth at a chance for more.
Hammertulski
If the money Telsa spent evaporates, though...yeah, the “rich” gonna melt away quick.
