Musk's huge problem re the Twitter hostile takeover attempt
The hard right is salivating over the prospect of Elon Musk buying Twitter and allowing all the RWNJs who were kicked off for violating the Twitter TOS to rejoin the service.

If I remember correctly, Mr. Musk makes cars that are pretty popular among liberals.

So…what happens to Mr. Musk’s empire if he lets Trump, MTG and Juanita Broaddrick back on Twitter, and all the liberals who were buying Teslas decide they’d rather buy other brands of electric car?

He doesn’t need to sell the complete car just the battery

2. I wasn't aware he was a RW asshat until he started this twitter stuff.

I know my gf was considering getting a Tesla but has changed her mind now

Ouch!

3. Hasn't been a problem so far

You would be surprised how many conservatives love Tesla (my SIL being one of them)

I’m sure I’m typical of the uber testosterone crowd, I don’t want to buy a electric machine but if I do have to get one and Musk makes the liberals cry then I will look no further. Me and my bux.

4. Guy's got nearly 300 billion. He can buy up major industries one by one.

Each new acquisition will just add to his wealth.

Eventually he could own everything, if that's what he decides to do.

The invisible hand of the free market will become the iron fist that rules us all.

Only in America

That’s what I’m talking about!

The problem with Twitter’s TOS is that it basically reads “Thou shalt not express viewpoints that contradict leftist propaganda.”

Twitter has been shedding users for awhile. Musk is masterfully playing the game. He wins either way at this point and Twitter is going to be forced to dance to his fiddle.

Y'all don't mind when a small number of "woke" (as long as it's profitable) corporations own vast majorities of the US's news and entertainment industries and shove The Agenda on as many of us as possible.  Only when it is someone who isn't in lockstep with the moonbats such concentrated control is a problem.  And I still don't think Musk buying up or doing a hostile takeover will have the impact many on both sides of the equation are expecting.  But I've been wrong a couple of times.

No matter whether Musk buys Twitter or not, I'm still not going to be a participant.  Just like 90%+ percent of the country on a regular basis.  But good for him.

And did anyone notice that libtards which are angry about Elon's takeover attempt realize they're criticizing an African-American?

The melt-downs across the internet have been very entertaining.  And very revealing to all.

Musk also builds rocket ships, and car batteries and is constructing an ISP based on satellite technology. DUpipo not purchasing Teslas is irrelevant.

I don’t have a problem with Tesla or Musk, because they seem to do what’s right. The solar panels on this house were installed by another company that Tesla bought out (Solar City). Tesla found that the panels Solar City used were substandard, and the company called one day to perform maintenance. Apparently “Maintenance” meant replacing them all with brand new ones that meet Tesla’s standards for free. The original panels were about 8 to 10 years old, well out of warranty.

That’s customer service

Exactly. Something tells me Musk's huge problem isn't so huge. It just goes to show you how leftists believe themselves to be so much ore significant than they truly are.

He should have made a play on FB. It's still a good format. Twitter would have died on it's own. I've NEVER gotten into that antiquated shit. It was antiquated the day of inception. Hell, this board predates Twitter.

But don't you remember when 'not one damn dime day' crashed the whole economy?
