Look at the sheer scale and number of massive, malicious mistakes that one of our billionaires makes, while having ZERO impact on their tangible quality of life or lifestyle. None. Their ego score goes down and nothing else changes. The people they laid off suffer, never them.
Remember that when some pro-market capitalism class traitor nitwit inevitably tries to shame struggling people for daring to get a latte, eat Avacado toast, or get an education based on learning and growing as a person rather than solely insatiable greed.
People in the little club basically have to rape dozens of people to finally be permitted to fail, like Harvey Weinstein.
You aren’t poor because of “your bad decisions,” you’re poor because of a relatively small, insatiably greedy, powerful group of people that demand and expect almost all of the capital value your effort produces to go directly to them.
Wasn’t the Twitter buyout for a significant portion of his wealth that he like, claimed he didn’t even have?
All those people say things like “well they’re risking their wealth!” he seems to be a pretty good example of someone who “risked a lot of their wealth”, objectively fucked up and should have lost at least most of it, and has come out essentially unscathed.
If you can collosally fuck up a whole company, and your wealth doesn’t even move, what are you even risking? At all?
mush never intended for twitter to become profitable. his only real incentives here are:
a. use saudi money to help kill twitter with some plausible deniability (for legal reasons)
b. try my favorite ‘business tactics’ because i have nothing to lose
he has been very successful at these intended actions
I’m not buying that story. It gives him way too much credit and is simply implausible. I believe the reality is Elon has an incredible imagination, issues with executive functions, and lacks empathy. He’s not a mastermind James Bond villain and he’s not as smart as people think he is. Left to his own devices, he makes bad decisions and is easily carried away by ideas that are interesting to him at the time.
And that Nazis could scurry out from under their rocks, moving from fringe places like truth social into a major platform. Finally they could show up in normie feeds – until the normies catch on and leave them in their filth again.

Another part of being a billionaire is saying you have it when it’s prudent, and saying you don’t when it’s not.
He sold a few shares to get the money, besides also taking up loans and gifts from others in his billionaire club.

Except it also impacted his other companies because of the public perception of his competence changing drastically.
yeah, thats where he needs ‘plausible deniability’. he can say, ‘but i triiiied to make money, those damn libs canceled me’
If it were that easy to cancel a billionaire, this world would be so much better.

The only reason it’s still alive is because we’ve got an election in 10 months
