A dark day, the man is a snake

Because Musk needs cash to buy Twitter, which means he will deviate resources from Tesla. It was expected and bound to get a hit as soon as news broke.
Musk, the saviour we didn't know we needed in the culture war.
Twitter is not fit for purpose. It’s the Wild West run by woke youngsters with too much power – Elon Musk will fix it

I swear there’s a few times he’s slashed the value of his own company with his impulsive tweets
That is already one fecked up decision.
If being woke means denouncing what the feck goes wrong towards minorities and the weak out there, then I have nothing to apologize about, especially towards a privileged asshole whose family grew up richer on the back of the poor during the worst of Apartheid.

Pretty sure that's a joke.

I really had a low opinion of him, but using Tim Pool or Dave Rubin as reliable sources is beyond sad.
I don't think he is is he? Seeing as he said he 'noticed it too'.
Not that I'm taking sides with any of the above people.
The American conservative commentator brain is a total contradiction. If NYTimes is buying followers to appear larger than they are and this can be exposed by Dave Rubin posting a photo of a grandmother, why do the likes of Dave Rubin, Tim Pool etc base their entire living complaining about the NYTimes.
It's like when UK conservatives simultaneously say nobody watches BBC News anymore because it is woke but any time something goes against them it's because the BBC is brainwashing people. How can you have it both ways

Between this whole debacle and the global wellness community and Liverpool FC I have a lot of detesting to catch up on.

Is it a good idea to buy shares in Twitter? Can you even buy shares in Twitter if he's privatising it?
Don't be surprised if it doesn't happen

If this doesn’t go through there needs to be a thorough review of trading activity in both Twitter and Tesla stock.
I’d not be surprised if he’s just been manipulating the market.

Well, the stock is at 48, and if this happens you will get 54 for it. And if he buys it, he is essentially buying every single stock of Twitter and putting it private, so you wouldn’t be able to buy it.
I definitely wouldn't buy Twitter stock if this doesn't go through (and obviously if it does then there will be no stocks to buy anyway). As far as I can tell, the general sentiment is that Twitter is about as valuable as it's going to get under the current leadership. The stock is more likely to go down than up.
about a year ago I think it was around $75 a share... and as recently as feb it was something like $35 a share - pretty volatile... do wonder why musk didnt launch a bid at $45 a share two months ago if hes such a genius
So no
It kinda depends. It is an easy opportunity to convert $48 to $54, but at the same time, if for whatever reasons this does not happen, then I expect a 30% drop.
Yeah well Im going by lthe if it drops I lose theory
He’s going to buy the dip. I expect that was his plan all along.
How could he buy if all his wealth is already tied up in Tesla stock and options ?
His net worth is now down 100b since it peaked at 340b a couple of months ago.

He's shit stirring but I kinda agree
surely the right has shifted further right than the left have moved left?
if we're talking about US politics anyway, which I assume is the case

Ahh yes because if we've learnt anything since 2008 it's that the "conservatives" have not shifted ideologically at all.
Should also note that this feckstick likely includes unions, being sued for racial abuse in his factories, environmental regulations and taxation as "woke progressive" leaving him behind
If you’ve ever met an American conservative they would 100% believe they have not changed.
So he's saying he's a bigot... right?
In no reality has the right not moved in the past 14 years.
Twitter is feckin garbage.
"Here's a thread 1/30" feck off and just write it on a blog, a forum or somewhere which lets you write an essay.

Must admit, I overlooked that part. Fair point.Ahh yes because if we've learnt anything since 2008 it's that the "conservatives" have not shifted ideologically at all.
