You just come across as childish swapping what i posted. You said that, not me.
You're just engaging in obfuscation and talking about random things not connected to your original post. Go play those games somewhere else

Elon is clealry playing politics. His rants and conspiracy theories that Dems are importing voters is nonsense as they can't vote but he doesn't care that he's talking crap, he never cares that he is talking crap, he is a man child with a mega phone.
Soldato
...with a struggling platform that needs every real viewer it can get, and posting nonsense does exactly that.

That has to be the worst analogy ever, congrats. Just because you choose to be a parent for a while doesn't mean you can't criticise the amount the mega wealthy pay.
haha are you looking for a lobbying job for billionaires? There are actually millionaire/billionaire groups who lobby for the mega wealthy to pay more tax.
Do you? You seem to do a lot of defending of Elon when he is criticised, no matter what he is criticised for.
Who said he wasn't? Why are you getting all defensive about Elon? He can do all of those things and he can be criticised when he says and does stupid things as well. Of course he will continue, when you reach that level of power and wealth you are pretty much immune from consequences.
Soldato
It actually is listed as one of the reasons these "lazy bums" don't pay tax, because they see a billionaire pay £0 in tax some years, and then think why should they. Not to say that's the blanket rule across the board, but it contributes to the idea that poorer people have that why should they contribute to society by paying taxes when the richest people in the world don't.

I think you're having trouble with understanding how it's "importing voters" because you seem to have an understanding that you don't get to vote as an illegal immigrant.
About the most charitable view of the Maga/Musk fear mongering about "illegal voters" is that they're absolutely terrified that the people that are currently illegal immigrants will vote Democrat if they become citizens and eligible to vote, and the Republican party already know their traditional voter base is literally dying out and the younger crowd tend to hate many of their policies which is part of the reason they keep making it harder to vote (including shutting down polling stations at universities), and have been talking about "raising the voting age".
Soldato
Oh Elon, you just can't help but jump on the illegal voting bandwagon but once again it turns out not to be what you hoped for to fit the narrative in your little campaign.

Do you think that Musk believes the disinformation that he spreads? It’s so easy to verify that the person in the photo was innocent.
Ultimate source of truth actually ultimate source of disinformation
Elon is a joke at this point.
Soldato
but but but we were told its more popular than ever!

It's been almost 2 years since Musk bought Twitter, and the media still refers to it as 'X, formerly known as Twitter.'
Just let that sink in. The new name is so bland, so forgettable, so lacking in presence, and so utterly divorced from the product to which it's attached, that they still have to say 'Twitter' to ensure people know what they're talking about.

It's hard to say, but I reckon he doesn't believe even half of it at best. He only does this for attention and engagement.
He also removes Community Notes that expose the lies he's sharing.
To me, this confirms he doesn't believe it. He just wants people to read the lie and get angry enough to engage.

Hate clicks might drive traffic but it will never bring back advertisers.
It’s sad to see what has become of Twitter/X. You’re right - it’s no better than Truth Social now.

Neither option is good. If he believes it he's a gullible fool. If he doesn't and its just to drive engagement he's just a POS and shouldn't be anywhere near owning a social media company. That he calls himself a humanitarian while driving divisions for likes says everything about him.
He's becoming Trump, won't tolerate being corrected and doesn't give a damn about truth.
Soldato
Although your point is correct, x is a ****ing awful name, it hasn't been 2 years since it was named that. Renaming was much later
I disagree but only slightly. Community notes are an absolute beautiful feature, one that gives twitter a lot more value than it really should have. It makes lies by big accounts a little harder due to the community notes quickly appearing. I don't mind as much as now I'm able to see the idiots posts with the correction, so know someone like Musk is an even bigger idiot than I realised, rather than say just have the lying posts prevented altogether.
Indeed.
