Great to see King Musk, the future arbiter of our public discourse, responding with a deeply thoughtful poop emoji. The constant shitposting is exhausting and I wish he would just go away for a month (or year...). Edit -- this is a mean tweet, I know, but it's the truth. You can't just respond to a thoughtful thread like that with a poop emoji. His plan for Twitter is probably going to be just as narcissistic as his tweets.

> The constant shitposting is exhausting and I wish he would just go away for a month (or year...). Outside the US, where there's sanity around the concept of money , there is a deep desire for the wealthy to be invisible & charitable. Only in the US you get this sort of phenomenons where rich people mount this cult of personality around them and peasants trying to impress them in order to get some crumbles. If you are a billionaire in Switzerland, Germany or France and try to do what Trump did or Musk is trying to do...it would actually be other rich people who'd ostracize you and distance themselves. Italy too! After Berlusconi they developed antibodies

  There are few, if any, billionaires in Europe with the kind of assets that US (and Chinese and Indian) billionaires have. There might be 3 in the top 30 here: https://www.forbes.com/billionaires/ https://www.forbes.com/billionaires/

I think he knows they knew there were way more than 5% bots on Twitter and wasn't happy about getting bullshat by his new employee.

  I think he knows there are less than 5% bots on Twitter and wasn't happy about paying 44bn for a 20bn company.
