Oh look, Twitter just responded by implementing a Poison Pill. Once again your arrogance and your pompous approach has you looking like a fool again.
Twitter enacts ‘poison pill’ measure to defend itself against Elon Musk takeover
Move will kick in if Tesla boss manages to buy more than 15 per cent of the platform

Gotta love the left. An individual wants to buy a company bc free speech and they freak out. They seem to have no issue with Blackrock, Vanguard, and State Street being the largest shareholder in 90% of the S&P 500.

its a pathetic display after centuries of “liberals” fighting for freedom they now beg for their own flavor of fascism.
It's a shame that there are no people alive who can tell us about acid rain and how it ended human civilization in the early 80s.
Seriously, why wouldn’t we take climate change seriously? Predictions throughout history have been spot on.
According to the Queen of Climate Science, AOC, we're down to about 8 years left.
Al Gore I think we are negative 23 years past the end...

“That’s the scientific method,” Musk concludes. “It’s really helpful for figuring out the tricky things.”
But most people don’t use it, he says. They engage in wishful thinking. They ignore counterarguments. They form conclusions based on what others are doing and aren’t doing. The reasoning that results is “It’s true because I said it’s true,” but not because it’s objectively true.
“The fundamental intention of Tesla, at least my motivation,” Musk explains in his halting, stuttering voice, “was to accelerate the advent of sustainable energy. That’s why I open-sourced the patents. It’s the only way to transition to sustainable energy better.
“Climate change is the biggest threat that humanity faces this century, except for AI,” he continues. “I keep telling people this. I hate to be Cassandra here, but it’s all fun and games until somebody loses a ****ing eye. This view [of climate change] is shared by almost everyone who’s not crazy in the scientific community.”

It's a lot of words to read to get there. Can you do it?

dave, why the complete terror and meltdown over someone wanting to open up the algorithms and let conservatives say things?
I have zero concerns. None.
You guys have run toward something, someone, that looks great to you with no real idea of the person or their ideas. I find that amusing, not in any way scary.
Your sophomoric statement had to do with climate change. What’s Elon got to do with that.
Sorry - I forgot to attribute the quote I posted. That was Elon speaking not me. It should have read:
“Climate change is the biggest threat that humanity faces this century, except for AI,” he [Musk] continues. “I keep telling people this. I hate to be Cassandra here, but it’s all fun and games until somebody loses a ****ing eye. This view [of climate change] is shared by almost everyone who’s not crazy in the scientific community.”
im not talking about you, im talking about the big names in media. What are they scared is going to happen? Babylon bee gets unbanned? Libs of Tok tok?
Who here denies the earth's climate changes? The climate has never been a static thing. Check out the earth's history. Just because we don't believe the infantile alarmist predictions that are used to promote moronic government spending and senseless regulations doesn't mean we think the climate doesn't change.
Frankly, no one I have spoken with in tech, nor anything I have read indicates that "big names" are scared about any of this. Of course, those who see their paycheck potentially negatively impacted are gonna react, but no reasonable people are saying much more than "meh" regarding Elon actually taking Twitter private. Most people I know feel he can't be any worse than Jack Dorsey.
If you have a quote from someone who actually matters in tech saying this is a bad deal I would love to read it.
he gets those things conflated, understandably.

Wow, how bad did you need this?
And you’re handling it with the grace of Barry Sanders scoring a TD.
I don't know if you notice - I don't pay much attention to the media. But go ahead - who are some of the big names [checks notes] in media who are scared? I see a lot of attention-starved nobodies complaining and cheering, but serious folks seem to be rather disinterested.
No one is perfect. I disagree with Musk on several issues but I agree with his free speech position with Twitter.
A simple solution would be for Twitter to stop censoring people merely because they disagree with what they say. Perfect example is the story on Hunter Biden's Laptop. Twitter banned a national newspaper that was reporting on the story because those on the left didn't believe it or more likely didn't want people to know about it. Now that the story has been confirmed to be true, why is Twitter not banning all of those that were spreading misinformation about the story being false?
If the excuse is Twitter has the right to censor anyone they wish for any reason, just be honest and admit Twitter is a leftists communication outlet and will censor any post it deems to be negative against the left.
Can you name the names of these “serious folks [that] seem to be disinterested.” What makes them “serious folks,” as opposed the unserious ones? And how do you know these “serious folks” are uninterested?
Yeah, he's the same guy that thought he could speak for a Black man about Black History Month despite all the video evidence that said he's absolutely wrong on his Black man mind reading abilities.
How about this... Twitter is a mediocre financial performer that needs to be very thoughtful about how to retain/grow its user base.
Still whining that conservatives aren't allowed to lie with impunity like you were busted doing. Anything to enable lying. Lie, lie, lie.
