Elon is the wealthiest person ever. He will bend Twitter to help all his existing businesses increase his wealth, all while making more money doing so. How could you possibly think otherwise?

Are you arguing that when he signs his name and certifies that the (short) form is "true, complete and correct" that he is not responsible because the form was prepared by an attorney of his? > being seized upon by the media How did "the media" seize on this? When I last checked, there were zero articles. And even if they had, why wouldn't discussion…
Does it matter? Was there any consequence of filling out a form then doing something different? I have heard it several times already today, but so what a form was filled out wrong, is there any consequence to that that anybody would care about? (I doubt anybody complaining about it actually knows anything about how important it is, it’s just being latched on to because it’s a way to match events with preexisting opi…

#343This is the biggest thing to happen to twitter since the trump presidency. Both big for twitter, and awful for society.

#350I know it's not popular but I like the fact that he's annoyed and did something about it.
