What a load of trash.

Musk tried to artificially raise the stock price by speculating, and was legally forced to make good on his advances lest he face a bunch of lawsuits

To put 44 billion into perspective, if each dollar was 1 second of time:

40,000 seconds is about 11 hours

4 million seconds is about 46 days.

44 billion seconds is about 1268 years.

More like Elon was more interested in ruining one of the most popular was us poor people had to unite against the likes of people like Elon. I don't think he's smart enough to make that call on his own so I'm pretty sure he's under the direction of someone else.

Seems awful weird to me that twitter, facebook, and Reddit have all had similar types of issues recently and resulted in dramatic user loss. It's not coincidence, and it's not for the face value reasons, it's to remove our ability to organize against them.

I think the “enshittification” theory is a more likely explanation.

Yeah, no reason to attribute to malice that which can be explained by simple greed.

This is why you don't write your own article titles. The first sentence is confusing and doesn't identify who "she" is. Only after reading the second sentence do you have some idea, and the order is still confusing.

The only virus out here is the worms squirming around Elmo’s fat head. Treat your daughter like shiat, she’ll hate you for it. Don’t blame the world. Blame the image in the mirror

It's almost sad to see that he can't see where the actual problem lies. Almost.
