Elon is only in it for the money… but I don’t care. I’m enjoying the show! Pass the popcorn! "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

How do you know his mind? Just curious… "Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." ~Robert A. Heinlein | |||

Yeah, I think it's more than that myself. He's got the dough to say screw this woke shit and really do something about it. And make money at the same time... SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>>  | |||

Fair enough... mixed motives are fine with me. I'm enjoying the show! "Some things are apparent.

This is an Elon Musk thread, and partially quoting a tangent on Warren Buffet could lead people with the wrong impression (i.e. assume it's about Musk not Buffet) if they don't click the link.

Musk said today during his Ted talk that this is not economic for him. He believes the world is safer if the public forum isn’t censored.

I love seeing Mr. Musk go toe-to-toe with our enemies, domestic and abroad. The "kingdom" of SA, has zero interest in free speech and freedom of people in general. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The trouble with our Liberal friends...is not that they're ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so."

It doesn't matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon will just take a shit on the board, strut around knocking over all the pieces and act like it won.. and in some cases it will insult you at the same time."

Nah, think bigger. I'd like to see Musk simply state that everyone who has been banned from Twitter for anything short of illegal activities is re-instated effective immediately. That would cause a tidal wave of of severe mental illness and outbursts of insanity by Leftists worldwide. It would be glorious to watch.  For anyone who grasps finance, Musk's bid for Twitter is likely a death blow to the Leftists running and supporting Twitter. There's really no way out for them. If they reject his offer, the sell off of shares will be enormous, the stock will plummet in price, and Musk can buy up whatever he needs at a bargain. End result - Musk owns Twitter. If the nitwits at Twitter accept the offer, end result - Musk owns Twitter. It's almost as if Musk gamed it out to end this way.  ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

Elon Musk is in it for Elon Musk. Thats not an insult, its how businessmen become successful. Hes doing to twitter what he did with crypto. He bought twitter stock in a lull, hes going to drive up the price by generating interest and controlling the narrative. Hes gonna pump the price up and dump his shares, then walk away with more money. Rinse and repeat. This is what hes good at, hell he lives for it. You’re kidding yourself if you think hes doing this to give us back our “freedom of speech”. Thats just how hes selling it, and its working.

How do you know all of this? Have you met him? I know at least three people who have met/worked directly for him. Where do you divine such keen insight?

Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Might be a good idea to let this play out a bit before we all claim we know exactly what Musk is up to. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom.

Nor do I. The guy's worth 256 billion. I don't think he gives a shit about the money. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

If he didnt give a shit about money he wouldnt have 256 billion… "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them." - John Wayne in "The Shootist" | |||
