I think we’ve established that Elon, in fact, cannot run Twitter better if he owned it.
He can sink it though, just like he said with his viral picture.
$500m to Elon is like $500 to the average American
Imagine if you will, Elon writing a check to twitter so they have the funds to cover all of his mistakes.
Elon, like Trump, has no money. He has credit and idiots willing to give it to him.
Oh yeah, definitely doesn’t have literal billions in Tesla/SpaceX stock that he could liquidate.
I’m so sick of people who clearly don’t understand how money works giving their opinions. I don’t like Elon any more than the next guy but the internet has truly shown me how hatred of someone leads to the smoothest brain takes imaginable.
He has credit and idiots willing to give it to him.
For which they usually use their stocks as collateral, right?
Read the first sentence “Elon, like trump, has no money.”
That’s objectively untrue, he has money tied up in non liquid assets that he can sell at whatever their retained value is.
What he’s using that for in terms of collateral is irrelevant when he absolutely has plenty of money waiting to be returned to his bank the moment he gets tired of running businesses.
I dont understand how can people get away with not paying their employees
It’s the US. If there is a country that hates its citizens more than this one, I haven’t heard of it yet.
Any time they can take things from you and give it to companies, they will.
So it shouldn’t really be a surprise.
But if you forget to pay $1 to a company, all hell breaks loose.
They ought to rename “US citizens” to “US consumers” or “US production units”, then they wouldn’t have to sue all the time.

Russia has been in the news cycle for over a year because of the war they started.
They imprison anyone critical of the government or the war. They imprisoned a man and deprived him of his fatherly rights because his daughter made an anti-war drawing at school.
They conscript men from poor ethnic regions by offering them a salary that’s 10x of their current one. Then they send them to the front with no training or equipment to be cannon fodder.
They are stealing from the pension fund to support their war, which will have catastrophic consequences for the elderly population in the future.
I mean shit. Have you never heard of North Korea?
I guess none of that counts. US bad.
Good contrasting points but the bar is set really low. Maybe Europe is a better comparison?

Agreed. Unfortunately, recently fired people are vulnerable and tired, and in financially precarious situations. Does anyone know who’s pursuing this, if it would cover everyone who wasn’t paid, and what happens if Twitter doesn’t follow through?
How’d his family get rich again? 🤔
