Twitter will soon be off the (stock) market

And here I thought Mondays were boring.



Twitter execs were so against this acquisition initially, but money always talks in the end. Now Elon can ban, allow or disseminate whatever his little weirdo heart desires. This will be interesting to watch unfold.

    Good I hope it will be off the market soon! Some Black ws butt kissing troll got my ShermX69X account suspended over a old tweet that was a suggestion for Black people to ostracize that clown Candace owens. As soon as I was told they wouldn't cancel my suspension I sold all my stocks and bought some more of Tesla's stock.
    It's so easy to get banned on Twitter you have to be careful. It's going to get even worse now.

    I don't understand why so many people, including some gullible Black people, are hyping up and praising narcissistic, soulless, WS Afrikkkant Elon Must buying Twitter and making it out to be like the greatest thing that will lead to positive change. Are people really this desperate that they are willing to suicide jump for joy from the boiling pot of water into a damn deep fryer?

    We know that soon to be former owner, Jack ass, of Twitter is a suspected WS, but Elon Must is no better. This methwhore looking demon fucker is not the 2nd coming of Jesus. He is an unapologetic, psychotic, unemotional colonizer and snow roach hiding under a Polar Bear silk fur coat in an overpriced Tesla with ugly WS stickers on the back of it.

    This Twitter buyout is only going to empower Elon Musty and WS even more. If you thought the Twitter ban waves against Black users was bad enough, and if you thought the rampant WS racism and leftist lunacy was bad enough, it's only going to get worse. Nothing will change on Twitter for the better as far as Black people are concerned especially. I am not delighted at this at the slightest. And of course you now have Jeff Bezos's soulless, crooked eye reptilian ass throwing shots at and trying to have a pissing contest with Elon Musty Ass because of an envious, white power struggle challenge.

    You know the government is gonna be on Twitter even more than they are now with Demon Must in the mix, like how the government has been on Facebook heavy for like the last 10 years.

    Prepare to see Tesla and other businesses of Elon Must be overpromoted nonstop on Twitter in such an annoying matter. Also prepare for more data leaks, data harvesting, increase in scam and spam calls / emails / texts, etc. I don't trust this POS.

    The time to leave and migrate from Twitter is now.

    He got his wealth through apartheid South Africa so that platform is going to be horrible for us. I'm glad you've made it here sis.
    This is something I actually learned about cause I thought the same thing. He and his brother were broke in Africa, his father lost money in diamond stocks. They moved to Canada and went into debt for college. They made the start of their money by making Paypal and selling it. Among a few other projects.

    That being said, his batteries for his Tesla cars DO come from slave labor so if that is what you are referring to, you are 100% on point. It sucks but so much of what we have in the US comes from slave labor be it slaves in Africa or Asia.

    I am just glad the platform is going fully private and it can stop being used as a tool for politicians and corporations.

    His dad was rich you don’t think that helped him? White people will have hella privilege and say they started from the bottom. Say BS story we heard with Bill Gates, Dteve Jobs, Elizabeth Holmes, etc.

    Just like when Drake said he "Started from the Bottom" and many of us people from or at the bottom who actually struggle(d) rolled our eyes in response. There are levels to this. A white person's bottom, an Asian / Latino / other non-Black person's bottom, and a Black person's bottom are not the same. Black boats are often stifled, undermined, set up, trapped, and outright raided and attacked whereas the other boats have easier times rising and staying afloat without any real interference. These other boats, in fact, already have resources in many cases and even get better access to free or affordable maintenance care and more resources whereas Black boats are not really afforded such things, and have to fight even harder to get and keep them if they do make any gains.

    Perfect metaphor. His bottom is a basic yacht…there’s a fridge, tv, a small bar, fishing poles…it doesn‘t compare to the mega yachts that have full staffs, chefs, wait staff, etc. Elon actually had to go fish, gut it, and cook it in the stove in their most yacht. But the mega yacht owners see themselves in Elon so they give him advice and when he’s ready they’ll plug him into the mega yacht club so that he can pitch his ideas and get funding.

    Meanwhile we build a yacht from scratch, were sailing and all the mega yachts, yachts, canoes, and dingy’s came to destroy it. Now we’re on a raft in the ocean…we spend most of our time trying not to flip over. We have veery little time to spend trying to prep for the future since every waking minute is spent navigating the waves. Ww also have to watch out because the coast guard comes and takes stuff from our rafts or shoots us dead.

    It ain’t remotely the same.

    It was a great news indeed when I saw it on Facebook social media first time. Such has proven to be the power behind money, Jack Dorsey couldn't reject such mouth watering offer from Elon musk that's why he and other stake holders accepted and moved on. Let's just see how Elon musk manages Twitter.

    He (the father) was broke when they moved to Canada, him and his brother. They fully support their parents. He lost everything in bad stock. They started with nothing in Canada. They did have skin color on their side though so we can't say they started with nothing at all.

    What was their net worth?
    The parents? Prior to losing all his wealth in stocks, I think they were well off. They ended up dirt poor though cause their father made a big mistake. I think that is why Elon and his brother moved to Canada, they had to try and make something. Ended up making Paypal and a few other projects. Likely paid off their parent's debts.

    I am no Elon fan but when people compare him to someone like Gates or Bezos, I have to interject. Those two men are SNAKES. Both got their wealth through shady deals and evil ways. Gates is trying to force us all to eat soy and has bought up some land for his farms, he plans to make billions off it when they outlaw meat. Think of all the shortages going on right now with meat and the factories that are burning down. 20 something of them since the start of 2022. As for Bezos, the dude's proudest achievement is owning the Washington Post. Why? He knows there is power in manipulation. He knows he can sway elections and entrap people through false narratives and social politics. Amazon also treats its employees like CRAP on a large scale. I know 3 people personally who quit, one is in the process of legal action against the company.

    If you are unaware of their net worth, how are you able to state with any certainty that they were dirt poor? If you're used to $5M a year, $250k a year will feel "dirt poor" even though you would be in the top ten of income earners. Not to take anything from Elon but I like others are not sold on the "I came from nothing" narrative. They could have been cash poor but dad knew the top 3 biggest VCs in Canada and plugged his son's in when it was time. That's not self-made or poor.

    Elon's father is evil as shit though so we do have to keep that in mind.

    The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree. Same with Kevin Spacey and his demonic and subhuman Nazi father. When Elon's father killed 3 people in "self-defense", was it really self-defense or just another sick and evil excuse for a privileged white male to "stand his ground" while killing people in cold blood and blaming and lying on the victims for their own deaths? Also, I bet those 3 people he murdered killed was Black.

    This is according to the family. He lost all the family wealth in bad deals. They could be lying, who knows but he (the father) is not part of the picture anymore. You only ever see the family with the mother and talking about the mother, not the father.

    My point was that there are way worse people with money we should be worried about.

    Maybe it is just me but my concerns are more with the government giving billions to Ukraine right now and another 33 billion to boot that they are trying to push through. Using our tax dollars to help other countries and continuing to cause mass inflation across the country while people are suffering. Who is suffering the most? Black families. That is what I am pissed about. I don't care what happens to Twitter.

    We shouldn’t be concerned with someone buying a telecommunications platform who is from South Africa, benefitted from apartheid, and has a history of racism at his companies?

    The lawsuit describes multiple instances of racist language and drawings toward Black employees, penalizing Black employees more harshly than white employees and denying Black employees career advancement opportunities and equal pay for work similar to that of other employees.
