    Really? https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-63978323 It is 100% real. Just to be clear, in early 2022 Husky Musky got butt-hurt about the account and attempted fo give the kid $5,000 to shut it down, thinking he would just take the money and comply. He refused and laughed at him. A couple of months later, we start hearing talk of him buying twitter. About a month after buying twitter he bans the account after making some retarded changes to the ToS to justify it. Yes, I am literally saying he spent 44billion dollars because some 19-year-old in Florida pissed him off and there was nothing he could do about it because the kid was 100% within his rights and didn’t violate any rules of twitter. I’m sure he had additional motivations, like having control of a cesspool of pro-conservative nutbags that he thought he would be able to milk for power and money, but short of Elon Musk pulling up in front of my house and showing genuine human emotion besides anger to tell me that it is not the case, the primary reason he bought twitter is because a peon had the audacity to tell him no and he was impotent to do anything about it.

        Lol, I am supporting my assertion of the underlying reasoning for his decisions based on real and factual evidence. It is an inductive argument. Look at a problem, find a pattern, find a general description for the pattern, then execute the general description on further instances of the system.

        I asserted that Elon Musk was a pompous assclown who looks down on normal people and thinks they don’t deserve to be capable of the same things as him. You challenged that assessment, so I found a pattern of behavior and was able to support it with evidence that validates it, then generalizing the pattern of behavior and applying that generalization to my original assertion still yields a true output, so therefore 'ole Husky Musky is a pompous assclown who sees fit to punish the little guy and make sure we are all kept in our place. QED ∎

        (to my math literate comrades, the redundancy is a joke)
