No, actually; a while ago I realized the stupidest thing i could do was NOT give money directly to the places I like, because that’s LITERALLY how we got facebook, google, and twitter.
They figured out that people wouldn’t give them money to run the website so they got advertisers to give them money to run the website, and then they made sure that the website worked in a way that advertisers KEPT giving them money.
Now, this is predicated on the fact that I can give them money because I have extra money.
My GOD the twitter drama is exploding. As of today, here are a couple updates for anyone interested:
The “insulin is free” tweet from the fake-verified Eli Lilly account tanked the company’s stock, along with the stocks for two other major BioTech firms, by up to 4%
The “we’re suspending arms sales to Saudi Arabia, the United States, et al” tweet from a fake-verified Lockheed Martin account tanked Lockheed’s stock today
Since 8:00AM this morning there has been a tweet claiming Elon Musk was starting a program called “Elon’s Tots” wherein he would pay off people’s student loans
Numerous politicians and pundits have been targeted by trolls leveraging verified accounts to fuck with their public images, and many of them aren’t being addressed nearly as fast as the fake-verified Elon Musk accounts
Twitter is allegedly worth ¼ of what Elon bought it for
Tesla’s stock has allegedly fallen by 50%
Elon has said Twitter may have to declare bankrupty
lmao
fuckin hell
tank more stocks PLEASE before it dies
at this point we may have to break out the lettuce again
I would like to point out Tesla didn’t fall 50% in the past weeks that’s compared to last year. Tesla “only” fell 11% last month and right now it’s actually up compared to yesterday.
🙁
BTW I already have the Lettuce going. It’s been sitting in my garage since the 4th, I think? There’s a webcam.
There are too many to mention, but I’d specifically like to say EAT SHIT to Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Rick Scott, Marco Rubio, Todd Young, Mike Braun, Josh Hawley, and Lindsey Graham. And hopefully in about a month I’ll be permitted to say GET FUCKED to Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin.
I’ll throw in another hearty “eat shit” to Tom Cotton who, during the 2020 protests, proposed sending in armed paratroopers to gun us down in the streets.
Every one of those motherfuckers can suck it.
I BELIEVE you mean Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell
