    Literally only the best strategies here! I mean lets recap:

    • Threaten to buy company then double down and agree in writing as a bullying tactic: check
    • Roll a nat 1 on your intimidation check: check
    • Be forced to follow through when called out on being mentally an 8 yo by the feds: check
    • Fire critical employees, like basically all of them: check
    • Yoink verification away from public news orgs: check
    • Let anyone pay to be “legit,” even if they’re parodying you: check
    • Rename twitter to the stupidest thing imagined since head-on (apply directly to the forehead): check
    • Gut content moderation policies but also stop enforcing regardless: check
    • Post own hate content and racism to the platform: check
    • “Accidentally” run ads next to hate content: check
    • Be told your sign sucks and to take it down by city: check (lol)
    • Become a living embodiment of “big yikes” energy while telling aforementioned advertisers to “go fuck yourselves” on live TV: check
    • Hallucinate about making x into a libertarian wechat alternative: check
    • Tank the value of the company while blaming literally anyone else for your failures: mission in progress, #1 priority

    10/10 solid buy, gonna grab some long calls rn. The koch boys and rupert murderjock must be holding back a tsunami of jealousy by now 🤣

      You left out “throttle diaster information accounts when the disaster is happening” (Japan earthquake).

        Also, I forgot all the tomfuckery he pulled with starlink in Ukraine, cutting off access and the like.

        It’s truly a testament to how much shit this guy has done that we forget so much of it.
