It's no extortion, it's not blackmail, it's abandonment. What took these companies so long? I'll never understand how calling out the rescue diver for going to Thailand wasn't the end of Elon.

Who could have possibly seen that shit coming?
Everything he does. It's just so stupid, it has to be purposeful. Like how he rigged the market with doge coin and bit coin, just openly making statements he knew would effect the market. I bet he bought up before saying those. And now tanking Twitter, it's already dead, we may as well stop calling it by his ridiculous moniker. But I bet he's bought up whatever he's replacing Twitter with. I wouldn't even put it past him to be in cahoots with zuck, and the feud is pretend. It's all just too obvious. It reeks of I can do whatever i want, I'm above reproach.

Mild shock :o
The question is: Who the f--k does still pay for ads in that cesspit? There should be a wall of shame for those idiots.
"We're too busy f***ing ourselves, so cannot advertise on X" - Advertisers, probably.
Poor Linda Yaccarino (current CEO of Twitter). She must be wondering what in the actual ### did I get myself into...
Trump supporters generally don't ask those kind of questions of themselves. Like Trump, they like to pretend they're always endlessly self-assured in their thoughts and actions, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
People shocked that she's a fucking garbage CEO just didn't know about her past as a garbage head of a department.
I'm serious about the Trump supporting thing, too. She's a Trump supporter. The fucking stupidity and doubling down on said stupidity is required for that.
Don't feel bad for her. She knew damn well she would be leading a white nationalist platform. She's a fucking evil piece of shit.
