He has no clue how to run a business.

This isn't a business to him, it doesn't need to be, its monetary value is insignificant to him, it was always about having control of an established platform, and feeding its audience his propaganda.

Musk buying Twatter is equivalent to the 18th century robber barons buying newspapers to control what they published

And it's nothing out of the ordinary either, all main stream media is owned by other billionaires doing exactly the same, only they're better at or at least more invested in keeping the mask on.

all main stream media is owned by other billionaires

... in some certain countries, where democracy is (coincidentally) weak.

Can you give examples of countries where mainstream media is not owned by billionaires ?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sure. But can you do your googeling yourself?

YOU made a claim, it's on YOU to back it up.

LOL

I told you my precious thoughts, and I gave them for free.

You don't believe me? Go and get your education elsewhere. Or don't. I don't care.

It's not that I don't believe you, I was genuinely interested in knowing more. I don't understand what's so "precious" about a random stranger's thought on the internet if it's not backed up with any source.

Moreover, I did try searching around for this and could not find any result that seemed to answer my question.

“Uncensored”: https://x.com/KarlMaxxer/status/1823753493783699901. I don’t know if this is really true, but if it is, it’s something that they should’ve called out in their article.

Did AI write this blurb or have you had a stroke?
