Go fund yourself.
He just got approved for that big $40+ billion compensation package from Tesla so he’s got lots to work with.
A single billion is an obscene amount of money for an individual, I can’t fathom how anyone can be worth/earn a billion in a couple of years.
Exploitation is the answer.
He works really really hard ;)
Yeah, you guys try making 20-30 xitposts a day. He deserves pay that is best expressed in scientific notation.
“I do shoot myself in the foot from time to time, but at least you know it is genuine, not from the PR department,” he admitted.
He’s been brainwashed by his fans if he thinks that somehow makes it better.
Like, authenticy is good for good things, but it makes shitty things even shittier. It’s not a value that’s always good in every context. And the worst thing he could be doing is doubling down on his opinions and policy.
If he left the company is the only way this would help, he wouldn’t even be a fall guy because most of this is entirely his fault

sounds like he needs that PR department
That’s pretty much how he kept the public image of “eccentric genius” for so many years. I once read an article (can’t remember where, don’t care enough to search) that said that SpaceX had/has a team whose entire purpose was to babysit Musk when he had a temper tantrum. The team formed organically, like a cyst around a foreign object, and minimized damage to PR.
When Twitter was infested, it didn’t have this immunity and now the world (or those of us who care) knows how much of a shithead he is.
“If someone is going to try and blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go fuck yourself. Go fuck yourself. Is that clear? Hey Bob, if you’re in the audience. That’s how I feel, don’t advertise.”

Careful, you might convince Tesla shareholders to fork over a few more billion to keep the big brained genius motivated.
If the market were rational that would have been the end of Tesla. It takes some extreme brainletry to turn a huge market advantage into actively losing ground to new entrants. And he is still at it. Being a dimwitted Nazi on Twitter is his top priority. Tesla sales will continue to spiral down the drain.
(Yes, if the market were rational the end might have come sooner, but certainly giving billions to a brainlet actively sabotaging the company should end it.)
Remember he is exceedingly wealthy, so he can buy Tesla stock through third parties to prop the price up without alarming investors. No, it’s not legal, but we all know the man doesn’t give a shit about the law.
Can’t remember the last time I was on Twitter. Turns out I don’t need it. Turns out I’m just a little happier without it.
I wish some politicians, artists, and scientists that I used to follow used Mastodon.

- They leave
- They stop paying for advertisement
- Twitter/X makes no money from advertisement
