You really seem to be buying the party line on Musk

I thought the party line was that he is into free speech? It certainly isn't proving to be that based on his actions.

I'll add that I've never followed the guy's story or thought he was a hero or whatever. I'd read how his cars kept getting recalled. The Boring company has overly grandiose unrealiatic plans to build an underground road to O'Hare. And he charges people to go on joy rides in orbit. To me, he has sounds like a lot of rich guys who think they have hit a homer when they started out on second base. Seems to me his mouth got him in trouble here and he is flailing.

Not paying landlords and vendors is now a business strategy?  All it takes is 3 creditors to file an involuntary bankruptcy.....

It’s been Trump’s business strategy for decades.

It’s pretty hilarious that the world’s richest man is delinquent on his bills.

Oh, I am sure he is going to try and weasel out of debts given how he idiotically overpaid for something that is really nothing of substance.

Triggered? I just think he is a cynical businessman and this is all an act. He has the Libs (buying Teslas and using the stupid Twitter) already. He is now just looking to branch out and  suck in Conservatives.

On paper, he’s got like $200 billion left. $44 billion should be play money for him. He’s still one of 3 richest men in the world with the $44 billion.

Of course Tempo thinks that being with a few hundred billion means you have a few hundred billion sitting in the bank

Dude I was saying he was full of shit years ago on OGHQ and it was crickets from all you lefties except for Murph who’d pipe up to carry his water. Then the guy buys Twitter and right codes himself and next thing you know all the same people are bending over backwards to say he’s full of shit. You’re too smart to be a political windsock.

No, that’s not what I think. What I think is that his life doesn’t change one iota despite buying Twitter or no Twitter.

That’s why I said “on paper.” Meaning, not liquidity.

That’s debatable.

Anyone can make a heel turn. Ask Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi, and Hulk Hogan. I used to like Musk, but what i thought i knew about him was false. He doesn’t seem nearly as smart as I once thought he was.

Musk's great business skill is finding competent people who want to do something and barking loudly at them and about them while throwing money around.

And that's all it takes to be a wingnut dream date.

Trump's business skills appear to be self promotion, shifting blame, welching on debts; all readily transferable to politics.

I cannot say I cared about the guy to even comment. (Shocking, I know.) No AOTC award for me on this one.

I only jumped in because people here misconstrued the First Amendment and claimed The Twitter caused Biden to win the election (when The Streisand Effect caused more people to search for the laptop story).

I'm skeptical that 7-Up is going to want to buy ad space on a Nick Fuentes White Power post on The Twitter, but I also don't have 44 billion sitting in my bank account like Tempo thinks Musk does.

This is a hilarious post throughout.

Hulk Hogan? Seriously? Why would you care to "like" any of them listed that much that you were disappointed by them later. You listed a journalist, journalist, pro wrestler, and tech/industrialist. Did you like Trump in the 80s and 90s, buy his dumbass books, and watch his TV show too? I don't get it.

I enjoyed reading Christopher Hitchens even after his "shift." Didn't always agree with him, before or after his "shift," but I thought his writing was usually thought provoking nonetheless.
