I Would Have Been Looking For A Job As Soon The Musk Rumors Started

If I had been a Twitter employee when this whole crap first started, I would have been looking for a new job immediately.

It was always going to be a dumpster fire.


I really feel bad for the employees. They do not deserve to be treated like this.

First, Muskrat says he'll fire 75% of the employees.
Then, he demands they work 80-hour weeks.
Then, he tells them they cannot work virtually.
Then, he locks Twitter HQ and they can't get access.


I still think Trump is somehow behind this.

He's mad that Twitter kicked him off.

Saudi Arabia is a big part of the Twitter takeover.

Musk seems to like Trump nowadays.

Dave Troy and others think everything is being done for very dark reasons that should frighten all of us:

Elon's purchase of Twitter is the exact reason why we need to tax billionaires.

…although I have no idea if any of Troy’s allegations are true. None of this makes any sense. But one thing he wrote certainly does…

”If democracy-minded people don’t seize control of the information environment, powerful sociopathic autocrats will do so instead. We leave a power vacuum open at our peril, and at the moment, Musk and Putin are the ones with the most will to fill it.”
