He really is the DJ Khaled of technology… which is not a compliment. Can people not just tell “certain sections” of Texans that an uppity African American with a couple of baby mommas and lots of money is moving in to their neighbourhood? And bringing his “business interests” with him too.
Bye Nazi-toddler, don’t let our tolerance and diversity hit your ketamine addicted ass on its way out, you piece of human garbage.
Musk is taking it to the farm upstate.
Hey Texas? Ya got room for one more scumbag?
Considering how many Bay Area tech workers with zero morals leave cali for Texas purely for lower taxes and how Texas loves that, I’m sure they do
Running from Brazil, running from SF, does he only knows how to run?
I mean the bitch wants to go to Mars. I say we let him. And maybe he’ll finally understand the complete piece of shit he’s been when he is running out of oxygen or is freezing in the vacuum of space because he decided to piss off or remove all the actual intelligent people and was left with the bottom of the barrel pseudo-engineer who created and developed his mars rocket.
It’s a fun thought experiment, anyway.
Make sure to take a photo of your roadster as you’re gasping for air, Elon!
Didn't Apartheid Lonnie refuse to pay rent for the office space for a while there? Did that ever get resolved or is he still defaulting on the rent?
🖖🏻
This will have very little effect on SF in the long-term 😂🤣 All of their staff that was here are going to stay here - they're not going to follow fucking X to whatever ass-backwards state Musk chooses
So, to recap:
- we have a huge office that will eventually bring in another major company,
- the area keeps all of its best talent, and
- we get rid of the grifter that regularly refuses to pay their rent/lease, taxes, and insurance bills?
Hell yeah, of course this is a win.
All of their staff that was here are going to stay here - they're not going to follow fucking Xitter
At this point, for how he treated his employees, we can assume that most of the ones left are visa hostages that would be deported the day after being fired or incompetent people that faked their way to the spot and can't find another job that pays the same. Or musk stans, but he fired even that simp that slept in the office floor in order to be more "productive".
They are trapped and follow him everywhere
I imagine most of whoever is left at Twitter is on a visa, so yeah, they probably will follow Musk wherever he says to go. The alternative is people rip their families away from their homes that they've probably built over the years and move back to their old country.
Now, if Biden were to grant the power to protect re-employment to other companies for those on L visas, Musk is probably utterly fucked.
whatever ass-backwards state Musk chooses
Pretty sure he's headed to Texas.
They’re actually just moving people to their existing San Jose and Palo Alto offices, not even leaving California!
As a native Texan, this shit just keeps piling up and I cannot be more stoked. They're so close to flipping our state.
I think you mean teXas 😂
the king of back-assward states
X is going to be driven into the ground
Going to be?
I'd love to see it fail completely. I'm hoping that musk makes it a site that you have to pay a subscription to see anything at all on there so everyone can finally give up on it.
You saw the investor list, right? There’s a LOT of people on there who miiiiight not consider direct financial profitability to be the point of their investment.
Top shareholders of Twitter include:
- Elon Musk (owns 78.7% of the company)
- Saudi prince Alwaleed bin Talal (5.7%)
- Oracle’s founder Larry Ellison (3.0%)
WTF they really need to relocate the evil lair in a volcano
What benefit does musk get from killing twitter? He's getting something out of it.
Election interference all over the world is a great value for his russian, chinese and arabian masters
Yeah, controlling the town square. It's worth him sinking money into it if he can get favorable tax laws passed as a result.
After the string of bad decisions he's already made with this company, what makes you think he's able to make good choices now? He has an echo-chamber where nobody can tell him to GTFO and that's literally the only thing he's ever getting out of it. It's kinda like if someone paid an obscene amount of money for a junker car, then paid 10x that amount to put vanity plates on it.
Finally, NIMBYs everyone can get on board with
