This is a link post petulant billionaire man-child definitely not digging deeper hole with falling ad revenues NSFW
nsfw for swears
I imagine this would have gone down better on his 40 billion priced personal soap box, rather than a conference of exec including some of the CEOs already worried about brand damage.

This is a normal post People don’t seem to have realised he doesn’t care if ad revenue and brand value goes down.
It’s just a plaything to him, and he’s enjoying upsetting its fans.

This is a normal post he doesn't come across as someone who's not bothered, though perhaps I don't have the personal insight into his motivations as you do
but given he's launching self-described “thermonuclear lawsuits” against non-profits whom he blames for scaring advertisers, has just returned from a virtue-signalling tour in Israel with Netanayu looking sombre at massacre sites to try to demonstrate to fleeing advertiser that he's really not some antisemitic conspiracy theorist and must have accidentally reposted those antisemitic tweets, it's easy to do, you know?
...maybe he cares just a little bit?

This is a normal post You follow his exploits more closely than I do. He appears to me to do and say whatever he wants. He certainly enjoys the attention.

This is a normal post I read the papers, if that’s what you mean
But on his need for attention we’re agreed

This is a normal post He doesn’t care if it’s negative attention, and it’s quicker and easier to get negative attention.

This is a normal post I think he wants people to think he's cool and it's quicker and easier to get horrible fuckwits to think he's cool.
It's not the liberal tears he likes, it's the gentle lapping of the fash tongues at his scrotum.

This is a normal post Seems unlikely he wouldn't care.
His brand was Mr TED talk big tech future business guy.

His handling of Twitter has shown himself to be someone who doesn't understand basic tech or business, and who is a massive racist. Ratnered his own reputation.

This is a normal post Of course he cares
He bought it to cheer himself up and it hasn't worked. Exactly the same situation with Bezos and his rocket. Tragic men with tragic personal lives trying to take the pain away with money.

This is a normal post I'm not sure he even wanted it.
Tried to get out of the deal before it went through, didn't he?

As far as I'm aware, he got the idea from some some random alt-right account who told him to buy it. He did it for the worst possible reason... bants.

This is a normal post The "fight" vs Zuckerberg as well
You can picture exactly what he was like at school.

This is a normal post Exactly. He didn’t even like Twitter, but he thought fucking with it would be fun, and he doesn’t care about the damage he’s doing.

This is a normal post He's not really fucking with it in fun ways, though.
Besides bringing back all the fash accounts and once swapping the logo with a Doge, it's all been enshittification in a desperate attempt to make money - not stupid shit to amuse himself and his minions.

Anyone who has made 34000+ posts despite the money to do *anything else* likes Twitter, or is at least addicted to it. He just doesn't understand it as a business.

This is a normal post i reckon his man-child ego is probably a good restraining force on him
that need to be liked. it's the quiet evil ones in the background, like the koch brothers sinking billions into climate denialism and propping up trump that are the ones I worry about. I just find the combination with musk of a billionaire with that kind of incel sensibility quite funny.
I do wonder what advertisers are after with twitter anyway. Facebook is bored idle scrolling good for selling shit. Are all the trolls, culture warriors and incels that infest twitter desperately trying to get their cutting remark liked above others really going "Sunak is a disgrace! All migrants have a legal right to.." oh, look, there's a special on Nikes..."equal treatment under law #StartTheBoats"

This is a normal post Ah it was a guardian branded video of some corpo conference on public youtube
Since I posted maybe some ip lawyer there realised they didn’t have the rights, or perhaps musk himself decided he didn’t like free speech as much as he thought and got all Prince on them. Doesn’t matter
it was a short bit with him on stage saying the advertisers who have pulled out can go fuxk themselves, to crickets in the audience, one that included the likes of bob iger from disney

This is a normal post Not sure the current situation is part of the plan
Tesla was kind of the brand of the aspirant do-good family. Would have been in a Volvo Amazon back in the 70s. Now who the fuck wants to be seen in Space Karen’s cars? There’s a reason car manufacturers steer clear of big personalities- it puts off part of your customer base.
