Elon & Twitter

[Daniel in SD]

What works better?

1. To suppress (possible) BS so it never sees the light of day?

2. Let BS fly free so it can be debunked in public?

I vote for number 2. When number 1 happens, people don’t trust the suppressors.

When number 2 happens, you get outcomes like Trump’s multiple election fraud court cases all losing when facts are presented. More people believe this method. And everyone can see what the original claim was and that they are full of it.

Go back and read what people are talking about here. I think people are upset that he's spreading BS.

It IS insane. He seems to have zero self awareness. Has he ever heard of the third rail?

Where we’re going, we don’t need no stinkin’ rails!

The BS that he spreads gets debunked. As I showed earlier. Read his own responses to this tweet.

“When you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say”

After some reflection, I think it's fairly obvious what's going on here. Elon is planning to run for president in '24 with Marjorie Taylor Greene as his running mate.

As much as I’d like to see this for the salt mining potential, Elon isn’t a born citizen.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

And you ask the Trump supporters after the court debunks it and they still believe him. So yes I think it’s better to not give it any air.

No, he can run for president. He just can't take the office.

That’d be an actual waste of money.

Some people may find comfort in Article II of the U.S. Constitution (the president must be a natural-born citizen of the United States).

Pretty sure he'll just tweet out that's fake news and he'll reveal it to be an Illuminati conspiracy with an earth shaking Twitter dump.

A lot of his behavior recently implies that he hates money.

Community notes.

Yeah. Like Biden supporting GM and labor unions and ignoring Elon along with Elisabeth Warren and Sanders hatred of him because of his mission to fight the Climate Crisis and being successful at it(Why they didn't work with Elon is a tragedy for all). Abe Lincoln was a republican who freed the slaves and said; You can please some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time. Being a democrat and like Elon voting that way I also want a more truthful and transparent representation and not the generalizations of putting someone as a Dem or Repub. It really isn't that important.

One point of correction that people always seem to miss when they post about Abe is that the some of the political positions of Democrats and Republicans switched to be what the other side used to be. This is important because people try to blame one side for various things, forgetting that things have changed, and the party of the past isn't the same as the party of today.

And our money I might add. He's seriously screwing TSLA investors.

Probably not among the hardcore supporters but it changed some independents that may have believed it. Anecdotally I have a couple neighbors that did.

Good news

Twitter's ad platform sees traffic increase following Elon Musk acquisition

Despite speculation that advertisers would flee Twitter following its acquisition by Elon Musk, new data shows that traffic to the platform's ad management subdomain has actually increased. This suggests that advertisers are still interested in using Twitter to reach their target audience.

Where’s the stock today relative to 3 years ago?

Say what you want, but Elon is living rent-free in all your heads.
