So he's really going to back out of it then? That's a shame
Jason Bailey
It also shows the entire company is a scam at every level, corruption at every department. Thats why it was operating at a loss and never expected to be profitable.....
....because its not a company, its a propaganda tool.
John Ramirez
much more likely to be price bargaining, if twitter has been misrepresenting its userbase that would let him make a lower offer that's still "must-buy" good
Jackson Williams
*must-sell
Julian Mitchell
He's going to go scorched earth on twatter. He'll either buy it for a lot less, or damage it badly enough that it influence will be massively diminished. Based
Jayden Garcia
also note that he couldn't do this any earlier, but as a now prospective buyer he has the right to be made privy to information that was previously regarded as private to the company
Aiden Young
why did it drop?
Charles James
Kek, let's see where it goes from here
Austin Kelly
because twitter is full of shit on its user numbers and everyone knows it
Adrian Wood
I'm hoping it's just a giant ruse to expose them for lying to the investors and he'll lowball them later.
Gavin Turner
apparently Twitter declared there's max 5 % of bots on the platform but that is now in question and threatens the deal/price
Robert Gray
Lol nice spin retard. Musk doesnt actually plan to buy Twitter hes just exposing and crashing it beyond recovery. Top kek maybe he isnt such a faggot after all
And the investor will have no choice but to accept his new offer or risk even more drops.
Dylan Morris
If you want to lessen the risk, buy options instead.
Lucas Kelly
If he buys the company you get the price he offers
Sebastian Rivera
It does not matter at all whether he takes control or not. The left openly seething over not being able to censor people revealed their hand; twitter as it is has lost the tiny credibility it ever had. All the left can do now is whine about how censorship is actually a good thing, their days of denying their love of it are over.
Isaac Lopez
Lol Twitter stock isnt ever recovering it wasnt a hostile takeover it was just a ploy to get access. The muskrat played you with the only thing you people care about: money. Now youre not getting paid and your stock is going to plumet even further because the answer to the question how many users are bots exposes the company and at this point it doesnt matter if they turn down his offer or make it public. Its ogre
I think he is. But exposing the amount of astroturfing to the public is paramount. It not only lowers the stock price and shows that there will be actual changes once he buys it, but also destroys the capabilities to resist his rule. If random twitter bots can't build rage through spastic comments the hold on npcs will be far lesser, since those creatures use popular opinion as their sole guidance.
Bentley Wood
you're being overly optimistic. The current seething is the other side of the coin where they celebrate when anyone they disagree with gets censored, it's really the same thing. Twitter never had any credibility to begin with, half of the people understand it's a leftist propaganda cesspit, the other half are leftists who intuitively understand it too but never admit it. Even if the deal fails the nature of Twitter nor its impact on current events will change. Only the stock comes out damaged.
Ian Garcia
you're responding to a retard
Christian Johnson
No you dont understand the answer to that question exposes twitter as a consensus shaping apparatus and that will drive users away. Why would he still want to buy twitter when they shot themselves in the foot on the way out?
Ayden Lopez
lol why the seethe faggot? You didnt buy twitter stock did you?
Charles Mitchell
>the answer to that question exposes twitter as a consensus shaping apparatus and that will drive users away bitch please, most Twitter users know it already and it's the reason why they use it
James Robinson
The funniest part will be when hardline leftists celebrate Musk pulling out because it turns out 50% of their platform is bots and fake accounts.
Juan Collins
lol please do it. buy all the shares you can bro. he’s still gonna buy it after all ;)
Parker Hughes
Our government has been literally writing policy over "popular opinion" based solely on Twitter. They don't go "canvas the neighborhood" or "talk to the people" anymore, they go online and read a few things and then write pro tranny bills because they think it's what people want. They're out of touch retards full of hubris and they're failing and losing control, and soon it will be 110.
William Foster
Musk-buy*
Aaron Morgan
And yet even if it contains 70% of the user base it said it did (it says it currently has 290 million) that is still a fantastic opportunity for building a social media platform. Social media is a chicken and egg problem because the users and their posts ARE the content. It's why the rest have a huge problem emerging, just like the youtube clones. You lack the library when you start out. The only chance to get something youtube like is to buy youtube. The internet is still far too young and influenced by its early history. People will want to watch something from 2012 and not be able to find it on an indie website, and thus will be forced back to youtube at least partially. Even worse, people are creatures of habit, so if they have recently gone to a place, they will go back.
Benjamin Rivera
Sure but its the extent and if it comes out its not 5% but 90% you can guess whats going to happen to the stock when investors find out the company is simply making up most of its users.
Jonathan Taylor
>Most of our users aren't real >Oh and they've been pushing political agendas >Hahaha fancy that
Ayden Barnes
Hope he comes back offering 60% of his previous offer.
Logan Rivera
democrat-leaning investors will pay premium for that. Even more control over bots than NPCs.
Levi Lee
Why would anybody invest in a company called "Robinhood".
Did they read the book, did they see the movies?
Parker Morales
Most people view Robin Hood as a heroic character despite him explicitly being a thief. The stereotypical leftist economic policy has a lot in common with him.
>It's okay to take money from people who have more than me!
Andrew Wright
>Oh and they've been pushing political agendas Well that why they have any value at all. If it comes out it was just blue checkmarks shouting into a void with an army of bought bots to make them look legit there will be no recovery. Oh the damage control is cute.
Isaiah Brown
If you invested $100k yesterday you would have made $20,000 today.
Hunter Scott
how is that less risk? or just cheaper?
Justin Flores
how in the fuck is this not stock manipulation by Musk? SEC gonna get involved?
Charles Sullivan
When's the last time anyone's met somebody who genuinely uses twitter? I haven't in years it's gotta be mostly bots at this point.
Hudson King
>how is that less risk? 50/50 >or just cheaper? If a -500% return is cheap, yes.
Juan Peterson
because it's stock manipulation by TWTR board. By advertising more users than they genuinely have and disguising bots as users they inflated the stock price
Carson Phillips
How has he manipulated it?
>I'd like to buy thing for price, but first I want to verify if thing is what it claims to be
If they go running scared when a light shines on them, they're probably cockroaches.
Logan Sanders
God...imagine if the price drops so much that they offer to buy it for less than I invested into in...forced buyback at a negative return... fuck...
Jack Richardson
>how in the fuck is this not stock manipulation Would you like some food with your salt?
Nicholas Gutierrez
Maybe don't release an SEC filing claiming you are less than 5% bots then
Evan Cox
the purchase being on hold might mean he's going to lower the offer
James Bailey
you'll be happy to close before you lose close to 100 %
Parker Phillips
You’re honestly too stupid for me to even explain how and why you’re being stupid. Quite an accomplishment, nigger.
Daniel White
He's already established they are whores, now he is just negotiating price.
Adrian Walker
>le muskrat >le Putler Go back faggot
Parker Taylor
No you idiot
he used "TWITTER SALE" as excuse to sell $TESLA stock without it crashing and anyone noticing.
The exit fee is $1 billion but he made more then enough selling $TESLA to "fund" Twtter sale
Grayson Baker
Youre talking to a guy that bet $1,000 that Kamala was going to be sworn in as President because I was hoping Biden would croak before being sworn in.
>you'll be happy to close before you lose close to 100 % Dont forget the board is going to be sued for defrauding the investors.
I though Alwaleed would be salty about them selling his stock while torturing him for his failed coup attempt but god damn is he going to salty about reinvesting.
What damage control? Fine, say 100 million are bots. With many of the valid accounts undeniably being verified and important public personnel such as the press secretary or Russia's foreign minister. With all of the announcements attached to them. And they don't use facebook or any other competitor to such a degree. And since they are government bureaucrats they adapt slowly. And there is no other current competitor that is acceptable... This is an easy choice.
William Robinson
Twitterbotbros we got too cocky...
Levi Harris
>niggers who work at twatter seething >niggers who previously held stock are seething >niggers who recently bought stock are seething >niggers who read you the (((news))) are seething Why is any of this a bad thing?
>And there is no other current competitor that is acceptable... Lol Trump has his gay platform and hes going to be selling your metadata now faggot. The dems are going to be throwing money at him while they cry in absolute impotence about it when their attempts to show what a scumbag trump is ends up blowing the whistle even louder.
Colton Bailey
Because: >niggers who made the bots on Any Forums are SEETHING
Jaxson Hughes
The free mask off moments were good enough.
Dylan Long
Takeovers don't get much more hostile.
Samuel Gutierrez
>>Lol Trump has his gay platform and hes going to be selling your metadata now faggot. Drumpfs service isn't doing all that well. He has even worse censorship because he relied on the same filter contractors as facebook. >>businessinsider.com/trump-truth-social-plans-ai-moderation-despite-free-speech-focus-2022-1 It's a company called Hive, and its behind all of the greatest hits you've no likely seen. >>The dems are going to be throwing money at him while they cry in absolute impotence about it when their attempts to show what a scumbag trump is ends up blowing the whistle even louder. This just proves they have no other place to go. Truth social is admitting defeat to your arch enemy. They are stuck with musk for the foreseeable future.
Brayden Turner
I thought he was taking money from the state and returning it to commonfolk.
Jayden Morales
No he was just robbing rich people; they just happened to be the state at the time.
Jace Thomas
This is how you negotiate a price. Hostile takeover might be but this way it gets done. economics 101 .
Adrian Walker
>Truth social is admitting defeat I wish but you know as much as I do that Donald Duck and the musky smell of true love are in bed on this one. >They are stuck with musk for the foreseeable future. You say it like the deal wasnt just dropped like you as a kid.
Brayden Gray
Kek
Luke Richardson
Imagine still using Robin hood after gamestop
Austin Bell
Now I don't know what to believe.
Adrian Clark
It will show that even the blue-dick Verified don't have half the influence they pretent to have >all twatter opinions devalued to the reality of fuckall > # Muskrat assfucking a twidiot harder than their gerbil
Jordan Torres
>Implying they aren’t forcing homoshit on the public and astroturfing it to make it seem “popular” I bet left and right is REALLY 50/50 too
>>You say it like the deal wasnt just dropped like you as a kid. Lets see. Musk has said hes still committed to the deal. And like a german would know anything about tech, where are your industries? So far you have shown me you can only be manufacturing slave labor.
Lincoln Gutierrez
the musk hit em with the rat attack
Christian Price
>The muskrat played you with the only thing you people care about: money. he spent a few million on lawyers to do all this, and i don't think he'd see that as worthwhile even though he is gigarich
Eli Baker
Musk is a con man who will die in prison.
Gabriel Fisher
dude empty your account into cash or something. all stocks are getting fucked before labor day
Jonathan Richardson
5% my ass. There are probably more bots on twitter than there are here.
Leo Nguyen
> Thats why it was operating at a loss and never expected to be profitable..... >....because its not a company, its a propaganda tool. Which couldn’t exist without the Fed’s monetary policies enabling them to borrow near infinite money at near zero interest rates.
Jace Howard
Due Diligence. Gotta find out if they are legit or a fraud before dropping the cash. >inb4 40% bots
Tyler Jackson
You both still don't understand. It's about WHO and WHAT is on the website currently. The followers aren't the value, its the users who can pontificate to the followers. There is a literal decade of posts and valid people on twitter too, despite the bots. Any new platform has to clear that hurdle. The jokes, the politics, the normie "politics". Places can be relevant because of momentum. Especially early in an industry.
Jeremiah Fisher
>since those creatures use popular opinion as their sole guidance. It's incredible how you can point this out to them and show them every example of how they are the ones following bots and they just completely disregard it with the same bot posts you showed them. It's hilariously sad.
Dominic Brooks
>said hes still committed to the deal. The deal he paused to lower the stock value? My dude you bought stock didnt you? Man you pull this shit all the time how do you fall for it so easily? >And like a german would know anything about tech, where are your industries? We are the worlds top salt producer apparenty and actually the worlds best recovery specialists. Thats why we got the twin towers harddrives and proved insider trading before you just killed the investigation.
Robert White
Musk is wrecking them He's doing this deliberately in order to secure the purchase at a lower price
