I do kinda wonder who is going to buy those things.
I sorta get the reason Sorkin liberals are always looking for the next 2008 Elmo.
Under capitalism for things to get better you need the richest to prioritize that. It’s never gonna happen, but that’s their hope!
This is how they can get excited about Warren Buffet’s 1000th media tour where he muses about the obvious (the tax code is unfair) and does nothing about it.
He is richer than the Kochs! He could build a bigger movement if he wanted to! But I think he’s happy what the fawning tv interviews 🙄
Elon’s in a world he doesn’t understand. He’s not bought a company that relies on advertising revenue before. He’s bought companies with solid concepts then shouted at employees when he wanted things done. He seems unaware that in this case advertisers are his employers you can’t just shout at them.
Then there's this bit from Sorkin's Dealbook newsletter this morning: "Yes, I was surprised at what Elon Musk said at the DealBook Summit yesterday — you can see that in the moment from our conversation when he left me temporarily speechless." Then he tells us all we should watch the rest.
I swear to God, the media in this country is fucking pathetic. They will simp for any loudmouth asshole they can find so long as said loudmouth asshole pays attention to them.
Phony Stark is an anti-Semite, a racist, a transphobe, and a misogynist. STOP PLATFORMING HIM, DICKWADS.
Humble, Hopeful and thoughtful are clearly words one would use when someone insults their primary source of income for leaving their platform after they made sure hate speech was running amok.
