Musk is a distraction. Always has been. I've been following Musk/Tesla for more than 5 years. I was an investor in TSLA. Based on my following of him during those 5 years, he should not be trusted.
Here's why:
First and foremost, Musk's takeover of Twitter is the single largest exestential threat to Truth's success. The DS knows Truth is already successful - why there has been so much FUD and short interest in DWAC. We'll come back to this.
Second, Musk has a long history of making intentionally inaccurate and misleading statements via Twitter with the sole purpose of manipulating stock prices, mainly TSLA. For evidence of this, simply look up the SEC sanctions and penalties levied against Musk for numerous material mistatements.
Third, one of Musk's most costly material mistatements was when he claimed that a buyer had been found for Tesla, tweeting "$420. Funding secured". This tweet alone sent the share price up close to 20% before the SEC stepped in due to no buyer even being identified, let alone an offer made. *note the price, $420. 4/20. Stoners. - these figures/prices aren't real - they're nods to meme stonkers.
Fourth, Musk is now offering to buy Twitter for $54.20 a share. There's that "420" again.
Now, back to Musk/DWAC. Dorsey was a DS tool. Just like Zuck. So knowing that Truth is exploding, and represents a true threat to DS narrative control, what's more plausible?
Musk has benefited to the tune of billions from the U.S. government, i.e. they own him. The subsidies to SpaceX and Tesla alone made Musk rich. Then, the corrupt SEC approved a compensation plan for Musk (at Tesla) that was the largest single piece of financial fraud ever.
So if you're the DS, how do you stop Truth? You bring in Musk to "recreate" Twitter, preventing millions of users from ever leaving because Twitter is "reformed". Doesn’t matter if absolutely nothing changes and censorship runs rampant - Musk said he changed it and that will be enough for the normies.
Don't let Musk dustract you. This is just my opinion.
If Twitter and its shareholder majority accept Musk's offer - it puts the debate over Musk being a black hat to rest. No way Blackrock and the deep state would allow it unless Musk is a blackhat. They would never give up their megaphone to someone they do not control.
Unless of course they have totally lost control and have been in an accelerating tailspin ever since Trump fucked up the Reset. They never thought she would lose.
That is what I was I musing- will Blackrock and/or Vanguard make a counter offer? What are the risks to the individual members if the BoD? Viable offer. What if they say no and the stock tanks?
Slightly OT but related: was talking about stock option compensation the other day with someone who knows another person who works at FB in their global compensation department. Since options are a big part of the package, when FB stock took a recent dive, they were dealing with a number of hires who were 'here, I am submitting my resignation. I'll be back in five minutes' so they could renegotiate their option price. They need the talent but my colleague was told they are looking at renegotiating between 15-20K employees packages. FB headcount is over 70K. But Twitter is only about 7500. Would be interesting to see a walkout.
