What kind of idiot would attempt a purchase of such magnitude before doing his due diligence (obviously, no one, it's an excuse after the price collapsed)? For fs some people probe fruit for a minute until they decide it's worthy a purchase.
How many more of these types of "events" until people stop treating Elon like some super genius god? Stop giving/loaning him money enabling this garbage.
- FargaColora 4y agoDid you read the article, or even these comments on the article? Nothing supports what you say at all. Of course it's easier just to shout about the billionaire man.
- jacquesm 4y agoDid you read the HN guidelines? If not then I would invite you to do so: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

- kazinator 4y agoThis one: Please don't comment on whether someone read an article. "Did you even read the article? It mentions that" can be shortened to "The article mentions that."
- systemvoltage 4y agoSpot on!
- deelowe 4y agoThis seems intentional to me. Musk has been claiming there's a bot/troll problem on social media for quite some time. I think he knew this going in.
- michaelt 4y agoI read a hypothesis, a few weeks back, that Elon doesn't want to buy Twitter, but rather wants to mess with the price to thumb his nose at the SEC. Perhaps all this uncertainty is intentional.
- nonethewiser 4y agoThen be shouldnt have agreed to the deal because there is very little he can do to get out of it. He cant simply walk away at this point. It appears hes angling for a lower price with the threat of a court battle. He doesnt have much basis but it would take time, money, and probably wouldnt be great for Twitter.

- fundad 4y agoDon’t talk about Twitter’s newest co-founder like that.
