I don't really get laughing at him for spending $40bn on twitter, it's a fraction of his wealth and literally 0.1% of that would set absolutely anyone who scoffs at it up for life and with massive generational wealth. Like yeah it was a stupid use of money, but the fact that this inconceivably large sum was spent like it's nothing and with no regard for any sort of ROI is a flex like none other. The man could have minted 40,000 new millionaires if he wanted to but instead spent it on a literal shitpost.
Plus I'd argue that freeing Twitter from lib control was a huge public service, even if Elon is a massive sexy Indian dude worshipping cute twink.
I used to know this guy who woke up from a week long bender and found out that he had booked himself on a 16 week falconry course in Brittany while he was blacked out. Instead of crying about it and trying to get his money back, he just thought well, shit, I guess I'm going to fly eagles and went and did it.
If Elon had just been like, "Whoa, what's the stupidest thing you ever bought while on ketamine? Bet you I win." then I could get behind that... but instead...
For me the funny part is how the acquisition came through. He offered a ridiculous price, realized that it was not worth even half that, tried to back off and had to buy at the inflated price after a lawsuit by the twitter board. I wouldn't call massively overpaying for something a flex, more of an embarrassing blunder.

This I agree with 100%, the social media landscape became a completely homogeneous lib circlejerk after 2016. X at least adds some variety to the conversation.
Lmao all this time I had it in my head, vaguely, that he bought it for fun and without giving it much thought and the Twitter board wasn't happy with it but Jack let it go through
I think musk buying twitter ultimately led to trump winning the presidency. Since Trump won and musk became his patsy, Tesla stock has jumped massively. Elons wealth has like tripled as a result, so really 40 billion for Twitter was a small price to pay to basically 3x your bank account and become the shadow ruler of the worlds most powerful nation.
Nah purchasing twitter was actually clever af, i'll give him that. It let him control the narrative which is invaluable. It's essentially the modern equiv of buying a paper
Since it's a private company, these corps can just make up whatever they want for valuations. I doubt twitter was ever worth much, but this always seemed like weird cope from redditors whenever they tried to say he lost value. It's quite clear that Elon didn't buy twitter because he wanted to make a profit.

I went to the 2017 Inauguration because meme, and I stood behind two congressional staffers who were openly talking about their favorite reddit The_Donald pepe memes out loud.
Like literally "hey what is your favorite reddit the donald pepe meme?" and then describing them. "Do you remember the one that was like bla bla."
Not surprising. Staffers are almost always absolute ideologues. They have to be for the relatively small salary and high hours. It pays off when you're a legislative aide when you can do some insider trading.
Dude, our new car is so fast that we're going to say it goes plaid. Get it?!? Like Spaceballs?!! Because in Star Wars the stars turn into stripes when they go lightspeed and wouldn't it be funny if instead...eh, nevermind. What do you mean you haven't seen Spaceballs, bro? It's literally the funniest movie ever made. Like they have a character called, get this, Barf! Isn't that hilarious?!
most of what the internet thinks that 2010s "lulx xD soy millennial humor" is (i.e. Borderlands, MCU, Nu-Star Wars, Guardians of the Galaxy, Scott Pilgrim), were in fact all written and created by out-of-touch Gen Xcels who think that this is what "cool people stuff" looks and sounds like, it is hard to admit that this type of humor was not made by Millennials, who started being born in 1983, the writers of that slop were all born in the 1970s (i.e. Randy Pitchford in Borderlands, Dave Filoni in Baby Yoda, James Gunn in GotG, Bryan Lee O. Malley in Scott Pilgrim).
Sure, Millennials might consume this slop religiously, but they were not the ones that came up with it, Millennials only came up with the Steven Universe Tumblrslop in the cartoon and animation industry, but not on the film and vidya industries as far as I know. !g*mers !kino !genx !millenials !zoomers

Truth nuke. The easiest proof is that soyslop masturbates over the 80's, but most millennials weren't even born then. People are nostalgic for stuff that came out when they were old enough to remember it. Millennials miss the 90's or early 2000's.

Generations rarely make their own formative cultural touchstones. It still represents their taste, though, because what's popular with Millennials was still either (1) picked by Millennials or (2) marketed enough to get traction anyway. Even #2 becomes real if popular enough.
It's not like Millennials created Tamagotchi pets or Pokemon. It's not like Generation X created MTV. Generational culture is about what the generation consumed and identified with, not what it created that the next generation likes.

You will never be a real Engineer. You have no real degrees, you have no original designs, you have no credentials. You are an neurodivergent man twisted by drugs and greed into a crude mockery of nature's perfection.
All the "validation" you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your parents are disgusted and ashamed of you, your "friends" laugh at your ghoulish appearance behind closed doors.
Men are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed men to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even engineers who "pass" look uncanny and unnatural to a man. Your speech patterns are a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get an engineer home with you, he'll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your anime doll collection.
You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it's going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.
Eventually it'll be too much to bear – you'll buy a social media company, AstroTurf the political landscape, spam socials with your bot army and then plunge into the cold abyss of a spiked K hole on live stream under an alias so no one will know to save you. Your parents will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with a fake engineer. They'll bury you with a headstone marked with Fraud, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a fake engineer is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably not an engineer.
This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back. No Refunds
