"How to burn 44 billion dollars within a year" by Elon Musk

✅ alienated advertisers ✅ alienated right wing by curbing free speech despite saying the opposite ✅ alienated left wing by letting the right wing go rampant ✅ restricting core functions

Wow how is that going to be profitable for him? I don't see it.

It must be nice to be able to burn 44 billion dollars and not miss it at all.

I could live comfortably for the rest of my life on 1/10,000th of what Musk wasted.

With 44 billion us dollars Elon could have built a small home for every homeless us citizen.

Most of us will be overjoyed to see 1M deposited in our bank accounts. Not for Elon.

It actually seems like the right can still say what they want, and the right was never actually for free speech.

They're for their own speech being unrestricted, mostly to say hateful things and incite violence. But you better believe the same standard isn't applied to the left.

They don't care. They don't want actual free speech, they just wanted their speech forced to everyone without fact checking or throttling.

Its still profitable for him because people still use that site.
