He's already backtracked saying he's not firing like he said he would.

It’s be really funny if he lays off 74% instead 😂 technically he didn’t lie

He just says whatever he wants when it's convenient for him. He's been trying to back out. Didn't work. Now has to backtrack like he during this entire deal.

So you don't say what you want when it's convenient for you?

Everyone says what they want when it's convenient

100% and he codes the fixes by himself.

If Elon doesn't make this claim in the next 5 years Ill eat my hat.

"I remember when I first bought Twitter and we fired everyone.. and i was going to the office coding the fixes by myself.."

man, do you remember seeing images of him in interviews back before tesla was really doing anything? Like a zombie. I remember him saying it cost him his health, etc.

Addiction like that can kill.
I laugh but at the same time...dang it if he might try.
Yikes.

He will hope people leave so he doesn't have to pay them. He will then move to those who he is able to fire without fear of lawsuits. Then he will start with lay offs. Give it like 6 months

He’s realizing that his very impulsive and very divorced-guy decisions recently were very self-destructive and irrational.

I’m legitimately curious to see what becomes of Twitter after this. Will it become a lightly moderated platform like the original Reddit? Will it become a flaming dumpster fire? Will most Twitter employees join us behind the Wendy’s dumpster? Only time will tell.

I think TWTR employees are lining up behind Google's dumpsters...

That's definitely going to start a turf war with the Wendy's gang down the street.

If Twitter becomes lightly moderated then it'll devolve into a dumpster fire.

Twitter app is not rocket science and talented team of 2,500 people can run the company with no issues.

Are there platforms in comparable size to Twitter with that number of employees? Twitter is more than an app.

I don't care about the employees. I want to know the journey of the Twitter sink. Like, is it where he set it down? Did someone take it away? Is someone following him, carrying it for Elon? Or did he get a little wagon for it? Is it in the corner of his new office, uninstalled? Or did he have it installed and replaced a different sink? This is what I really care about.

CEO went first. I'm still wondering where that sink is tho...

"Mr. Musk, I hear the CEO position is open. I hereby tender this hastily drawn-in-crayon resume... or is it.. CV.. I don't know.. but for your consideration. Thanks!"

I think it’s time for all the billionaires to have a huddle, maybe go to a TP somewhere and do some mescaline. Those motherfuckers are fucking it up. Harken back to the days when we had billionaires that we’re fucking cool. Today’s batch are the largest bunch of tools to have ever existed. No fucking large orgies open to the public. No large drug benders. No lobbying for legalize drugs. No lobbying for legalize prostitution. Just a bunch of fucking penises walking around with tiny dicks. Totally unbelievable

TWTR will be a open forum as it should be. If your feelings are easily hurt by someone else’s speech your life is about to get a lot harder. Adapt or perish and that’s how this shit works!

They've been making a lot of money though. They should have a good amount in their savings account.

Still don't get his angle buying Twitter. Bored and wants more attention? Hell, he's been burnt so badly by AOC I'm surprised he hasn't gone dark.
