That's called "voting with your wallet". Everyone should do that! Here in Europe we tanked Tesla sales. Rich and poor - everyone can do what's right.
Not everyone's wallet has that kind of pull.

Here's the thing... there's more of us than there are of them. That's why they're so desperate to keep our collective attention elsewhere and to cause division or people might recognize just how strong they could be collectively.
Even collectively we might not have billions of dollars, but it doesn't take billions to crater a company or an industry. Just takes not paying into the system; it'll collapse on its own.
I get you can't boycott everything because you need food and water to survive, but people aren't helpless.
Elon musk must have read Art of the deal recently, it’s obvious in his recent business dealings
this is what happens when you run a government the way you're used to running the monopoly you own. "hardball" doesn't work on the global stage.
More like Art of Seduction. Dude is going around being megadouche, negging people and trying to make up for it with cheesy magic tricks.
That must count as the most financially ruinous tweet ever. Serves Elon right for being a total prick.
Wasn’t president Musk’s announcement that he was going to BUY twitter a tweet? Seeing as it’s worth fuck-all now that’s in the running.
Yeah though his total demolition of the company wasn’t done by that tweet. He had to keep making bad decisions for that!
To be fair, buying Twitter was instrumental in him getting Trump to the presidency.
Like any Billionaire, he needed a media outlet to manufacture consent with - I'd argue that him buying Twitter wasn't as stupid a move as it initially seems.
Buying the company was the decision to take over the communications channel by dictators worldwide. It wasn't an accident and he doesn't care about the value of shitter in the long term.
I love to see Musk get punched where it counts!
Sauce please? Because that is fucking amazing!
Musk will most likely blame it on South African apartheid and him being discriminated against.
Keep it up world. Bankrupt Musk. Let’s make the world’s richest man, the poorest. Rob him of absolutely everything.
I don't have a business degree, so can someone help me understand if this is how you win at stonks?
I can but first I'm going to need you to wire me $150 usd.
He must have checked his list of criminal dealings, saw that Musk was on it, and decided to correct it.
Thanks Carlos!
Slim might be one of the coolest rich guys around. He put up a museum in Mexico city and it's free. For everyone, all the time.
Billionaires used to do that kind of thing all the time when they knew they could either walk the street a hero or a target. Mexican billionaires still live in reality it seems.
Fuck all billionaires. Including this Mexican one idfc what he did to musk
I would hesitate before judging someone purely on one statistic but it's difficult to imagine how one amasses that sort of money ethically. If I asked you to think of a billionaire that you would leave in charge of children, who would you pick? Bill Gates perhaps, Warren Buffet? It's slim pickings.
Jon Ronson advanced the idea that psychopathy is over-represented in the CEO class and presented some compelling examples in his book, The Psychopath Test.
Good. Unfortunately, it just means Elon will be enraged to decimate America further.
Really hoping for a Player 2. I'd do it myself but I'm a terrible shot.
I like seeing good news.
Jesus dude... if you want to piss away your money, I'd take a couple hundred million
He just fucked with the wrong Mexican.
He's a billionaire, of course he has some relations with crime, Musk is just dumb enough to say the quiet part out loud.

Edit: Lemmy has trouble with gif?
Pot calling the kettle black, eh?
