Cont: Musk buys Twitter II

Trausti said:
It was overvalued when he bought it. He paid a premium so that the Twitter board couldn't back out (though, then he wanted to back out). It's obvious he didn't buy Twitter to make money. He just wanted to own it. He's still the richest man in the US (#2 globally).

He's destroyed a huge amount of value by making it his plaything rather than maximizing profit.

Jeez I read Ted Bundy for a moment.
I tossed an idea in, I am seeing women in total control of media and Orwell in New Zealand, I am confident that Elon Musk is a far far better person than our indoctrinated femme fatales.
See the telecoms haridans cooperating to close out customers in about may.
 
So Trausti and Samson are now terrified of the existence of women. The world just gets weirder and weirder. I wouldn't care if these were just two numbnuts on a message board, but they reflect a considerable amount of conservative voters in the US

I bet Trausti does not see himself/themselves roped to me on a cliff face.
 
I think I should elaborate. I am sure the great works of western culture are being discouraged, Beethoven was writing his late quartets the same time as Maori were being discouraged from eating their slaves. That is not controversial, England banned slavery about 1817 and took the message to Maori.
I sincerely trust Elon Musk to navigate a return to veneration of the best of all cultures, while reneging on the stupidity of taking women to Mars.

No offense, but that clarified nothing

I see Elon Musk's acquisition of X formerly known as Twitter to be the most important social event.of the last year, by a very wide margin.
There are countless people who feared opening their computers because Jack Dorsey had rogered their attempts to communicate.

Ah, That's very interesting to me, as I see X being basically Myspace sooner than later
More important, I LOVE a good rocking chair. I generally don't like to sit, but if I do, Rocking Chair is the way to go. Most of my prized antiques are rockers

And long tailed cats?
My issue is I must stay on topic.
I see Sam Harris going Elon, and saying he is an ex friend, who must face up to alienation from the in crowd of public intellectuals, due to his errant management of X.
For Chrissakes where is Marshall Mcluhan when needed?
This is a crisis of civilization, silence on the Taliban and their premium understanding of women's abilities, we celebrate Islam. WTF

but that hasn't improved, it's just a different in and out group.

i think it was important in that it showed it doesn't matter how rich you are, if you run an ad based platform the advertisers are in control.

Many men, especially the straight, cis, white, middle-aged, type are absolutely unable to cope with modern young women who don't defer to supposed "masculine authority".

No they're not. The works of Beethoven, Mozart, and other dead European composers are still played all over the place. Including the NY Philharmonic (right now this week, and conducted by a Dutch white guy). Shakespeare is still widely studied and performed. Dickens... did you somehow not get a rendition of a Christmas Carol in your local area last month?

What a bizarre conclusion. Why are you sure? Is your opening paragraph supposed to be supporting evidence of this? Its not. Even if you were correct that Beethoven is being discouraged it does not lead to Elon "returning to veneration of the best of all cultures" nor is he likely to renege from a promise to do something you find stupid (other than not getting men there either).

You're establishing a new high water mark, in terms of posting bizarre gibberish. That's no small accomplishment!
