Musk actually buys Twitter.

Anyone know the reaction on SV?

Anyone know the reaction on SV?

The reaction so far is limited but they are chimping out as well.

Promising news. Twitter has a monopoly on online discourse. It's where all the normies talk. If you got banned from twitter, you were banned from public discourse. Sure, you could talk on alt-tech like minds, gab, telegram, etc, but normies don't hang out there. It's just a bunch of exiles retweeting other exiles. The masses are on twitter. I personally don't think twitter is a very good platform for discussion (like/upvote system creates echochambers, 180 character limit doesn't allow for good articulation of arguements, etc), but it's what we got.

A crack in the "deplatforming" of non commies?

Dan Rather is almost in a reverie. A superstitious trance. Literally everything he says in that one tweet drips with ivory-tower elitism. Allow me to translate the subtext.

I stop scrolling, I look up from my phone, and out the window. = I'm too much of an egotist to admit defeat, so instead, I'll pretend to be bigger and better than this by invoking John Lennon-esque imagery of global brotherhood and universal mystery. Just picture Neil deGrasse Tyson expanding endlessly in front of you. Carl Sagan, Carl Sagan, Carl Sagan. I'm not as smart as Carl Sagan, but I'll still blither on about motes of dust suspended in sunbeams. The rest of this tweet is going to be magnetic fridge poetry.

I see a complicated but beautiful world. = The world is too complicated for plebeians to understand. The New World Order isn't real, it's all just various people of different backgrounds selfishly pursuing their own interests. There is no one at the wheel. Everything is aimless. I am powerless. And yet, I used to be told by the powerful exactly what to tell the plebs to believe about every issue, so I should technically know better.

It's still going to be there no matter who owns Twitter. = Progressive causes will still march on. At least I can take refuge in the emotional security of the collective, no matter how uncomfortable Elon Musk owning Twitter makes me feel.

And we'll continue to find ways to live in it, talk about it, and share with each other our thoughts, fears, and dreams. = And share our mukbangs, our awkward Segway rides, and our pointless opinions with each other on Funko Pops, craft beer, and artisanal bath bombs.

Why do milquetoast liberals fucking talk like this? Pull the Goa'uld brain worm out of your ear, Dan Rather, you silly cunt.

Salt prices collapse worldwide as supply skyrockets in ways not seen since Trump's election, marking the lowest price per ton of the basic chemical in 6 years.

I am curious to see if Musk actually makes Twitter a free speech zone.

I wonder how many of those self righteous retards come crawling back after a few days because they are all addicted to getting their egos stroked by their fellow brain dead NPC's.

Oh there will be some kind of defiant "this is our space" BS in the coming week. They never follow through on what they promise, no matter how nice that would be.

Crawling back? They will never leave. It is impossible for them to ever touch grass.

That depends on where they live there are legal dispensarys for grass in Colorado California and a growing number of other states.

Someone's quickly using that moment to shitpost without the fear of getting fact checked or banned.

You do all know that the board agreeing to the offer does not mean that Mr. Musk has actually bought out Twitter yet, yes? The board agreeing to the offer just now means that the offer will have shareholders go through the process of voting ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ on what is being offered. Shareholders will probably vote ‘Yes’ on it though due to the board agreeing to the offer. (This means they, the board, will recommend the shareholders to vote ‘Yes’).

Do You Understand the Voting Rights of Common Stock Shareholders?

Understand the voting rights of common stock shareholders, along with the importance of shareholders exercising their rights to vote.

Common stock shareholders in a publicly-traded company have certain rights pertaining to their equity investment, and among the more important of these is the right to vote on certain corporate matters. Shareholders typically have the right to vote in elections for the board of directors and on proposed operational alterations such as shifts of corporate aims and goals or fundamental structural changes.

Shareholders also have the right to vote on matters that directly affect their stock ownership, such as the company doing a stock split or a proposed merger or acquisition. They may also have the right to vote on executive compensation packages and other administrative issues.
